Precision Laser Cutting of Technical Ceramics and Alumina Substrates
our approach
Applied Laser Solutions Ltd is a UK-based specialist in laser cutting, drilling, profiling and scribing technical ceramics, including 96% and 99% alumina.
We supply prototype, one-off and production quantities for microelectronics, thick film, thin film, hybrid circuit, engineering, aerospace, defence, medical and semiconductor applications.
Need a quote? Send us your DXF drawing, material, thickness and quantity and we’ll review your requirements.
Specialist ceramic laser processing
We manufacture precision ceramic components using laser processing methods suited to hard, brittle and difficult-to-machine materials.
Our work commonly includes laser-cut alumina substrates, drilled holes and vias, profiled ceramic parts, scribed panels and small precision engineering components.
Laser processing is well suited to prototypes, small batches and production quantities because there are no dedicated tooling charges.
what we do
Laser cutting and profiling
Precision cutting of alumina and other technical ceramics to create profiles, slots, apertures and complex component shapes.
Laser drilling
Small holes and vias in ceramic substrates and precision engineering parts, with feature sizes dependent on material grade and thickness.
Laser scribing
Controlled scribe lines in ceramic panels, typically used where substrates need to be snapped cleanly into individual parts.
Technical ceramic components
Laser-cut ceramic parts for electrical insulation, wear resistance, thermal management and specialist engineering applications.
why choose applied laser solutions?
Specialist experience
Applied Laser Solutions has over 40 years’ industry experience in laser processing technical ceramics and specialist materials.
