LASER CUTTING

We’re an Auckland-based laser cutting workshop in Pakuranga, working with everything from steel and stainless to acrylic, MDF, leather, and bamboo.

Whether you're prototyping a single piece or running a production batch, we provide precision laser cutting with clean edges and fine detail that holds up under close inspection.

We work with businesses and individuals across Auckland and throughout New Zealand.

What We Cut​

From small one-off prototypes through to repeating production runs, we cut for a wide mix of projects:

  • Signage and shopfront lettering

  • Architectural details and bespoke fittings

  • Brand merchandise and packaging

  • Engineering parts and components

  • Stencils, jigs, and templates

  • Custom design pieces and commissions

  • Hobbyist and craft work

If your project falls outside this list, send it through anyway - we’ve likely done something similar.

Materials We Work With

We keep a working stock of common materials and can source others for specific projects.

Materials we regularly cut include:

  • MDF and veneered ply

  • Acrylic (clear, coloured, and mirror)

  • Bamboo

  • Cardboard

  • Leather

  • Steel and stainless steel

  • Brass

You’re welcome to supply your own materials - just check with us first to make sure it’s suitable.

One important note: materials need to be flat. We can’t cut anything bent, warped, or curved.

Cutting Sizes & Capabilities

We run two laser machines, allowing us to match the right setup to your job:

  • Large machine: up to 2400mm × 1200mm

  • Small machine: up to 900mm × 600mm

Both machines can handle thicknesses from 0.1mm up to 100mm, depending on the material.
