General Stamping & Metalworks (GSM) delivers industrial laser cutting for OEMs that demand tight tolerances, clean edges, and fast turnarounds. We nest parts efficiently and maintain consistency across prototypes and volume production. Our metal laser cutting services slot into bending, stamping, machining, and assembly for a coordinated workflow. Need intricate profiles or oversized components? Our custom laser cutting handles both while reducing rework and keeping your production on schedule.
Our capabilities include:
Punch Laser Combo: Trumpf TruPunch technology enables simple to complex applications with excellent surface and edge quality. It provides energy and material resource efficiency for extremely economical production, forming, and deburring in one operation.
Laser cutting focuses a high-energy beam to melt or vaporize metal along a programmed path. A CNC controller drives the cutting head while assist gas clears the slit (or kerf) and controls heat, so parts come off the table with clean edges, tight tolerances, and a small heat-affected zone. That precision makes industrial laser cutting a smart choice for everything from intricate brackets to large panels.
The process starts with your CAD file. We nest parts for material yield, simulate toolpaths, and dial in parameters: power, feed rate, focal position, and gas selection. Nitrogen delivers oxide-free edges on stainless and aluminum; oxygen boosts cutting speed on carbon steel. This upfront planning keeps production smooth and predictable.
Compared with mechanical cutting or plasma, metal laser cutting creates fine features, tight radii, and small holes with minimal burr. You get repeatable accuracy, fast changeovers, and consistent parts that move straight to other services without extra cleanup.
Industrial laser cutting moves fast without sacrificing accuracy. The focused beam creates narrow kerfs and clean edges, so parts hold tight tolerances and the heat-affected zone stays small. You get quick changeovers and efficient nesting that make better use of material.
Our metal laser cutting services produce complex profiles, fine features, and small holes in a single pass, which reduces the need for deburring. With no hard tooling and minimal setup, the process keeps production efficient and costs under control.
Missed cuts stall everything downstream, so we build the plan around your dates. We stage material and programs in advance, nest for yield, and schedule changeovers to keep production moving. Our team runs multiple cells with built-in redundancy and quick maintenance windows, so spikes in demand don’t derail throughput.
We cut and then move parts straight to services like bending and stamping on a single production track with no back-and-forth. This integrated flow trims freight touches and shortens lead times, giving your team predictable output. If you need laser cutting services that hold the line on timing, you need GSM.
GSM hits volume targets and deadlines while keeping the workflow clean and predictable. We run industrial laser cutting on a production floor that connects directly to our other capabilities with clear ownership and steady output. Our facilities offer advantages like:
Material range: We process carbon and stainless steel, aluminum, and more, including reflective alloys.

Get the answers you need about industrial laser cutting from GSM. We focus on quality, capacity, and tolerances so OEM teams can plan production with confidence.
We program offline, simulate toolpaths, and set power, speed, focus, and assist gas specifically for your project. First-article checks validate edges and features, and in-process monitoring keeps cuts consistent across long runs.
Tolerances vary by material type, thickness, and feature size. We quote to your drawing and hold tight, repeatable results on production runs, with a small heat-affected zone that helps parts fit downstream without extra rework.
