Metal Cutting
Services
Feiyu provides precision metal cutting services for OEM and industrial manufacturing projects. Our capabilities include laser cutting, sawing and wire EDM processing, supporting everything from sheet metal fabrication to high-precision tooling components.
Metal Cutting Technologies
Different cutting processes are selected according to material form, dimensional requirements, production volume and downstream manufacturing steps.
Laser Cutting
Laser cutting is suitable for sheet metal parts, enclosure panels, flat brackets, covers and custom blanks. It is often selected when buyers need clean edges, efficient production and consistent profiles before bending, welding, powder coating or assembly.
Sawing
Sawing is used for bar stock, tubes, profiles and raw material preparation before CNC machining, welding or assembly. It is a practical process for structural material preparation, cut-to-length blanks and repeat production components.
Wire EDM
Wire EDM is selected for high-precision profiles, tooling, dies and tight-tolerance metal components. It is useful when complex shapes, fine slots or hardened conductive materials require accuracy beyond conventional cutting routes.
How To Choose The Right Metal Cutting Process
This guide helps buyers match common product requirements with the right cutting process before requesting a quote.

Technical Capabilities
Exact tolerances, thickness range and maximum cutting size should be confirmed against the drawing, material and process route.
| Process | Typical Accuracy Reference | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Laser Cutting | Drawing based | Sheet metal parts, panels, brackets |
| Sawing | Cut length based | Bars, tubes, profiles and raw material prep |
| Wire EDM | High precision, drawing based | Tooling, dies, tight-tolerance profiles |
Typical Manufacturing Workflow After Cutting
Cut parts can move into forming, machining, welding, finishing, inspection and final assembly depending on the product requirements.
Laser Cutting -> Bending -> Welding -> Powder Coating -> Assembly
Wire EDM -> CNC Machining -> Heat Treatment -> Inspection
Metal Cutting FAQ
Key questions buyers usually ask before selecting a cutting process or sending drawings for quotation.
What is the difference between laser cutting and wire EDM?
Laser cutting is efficient for sheet metal blanks and panels, while wire EDM is used for high-precision profiles, tooling and tight-tolerance conductive components.
Which cutting process provides the highest accuracy?
Wire EDM is usually selected when a project requires very high profile accuracy, fine slots or precision tooling features.
Can cut parts be welded afterward?
Yes. Laser cut or saw cut parts can move into welding, machining, surface treatment, inspection and assembly based on the final product design.
Is laser cutting suitable for stainless steel?
Stainless steel is commonly processed by laser cutting, subject to thickness, grade, surface requirement and drawing specifications.
What materials can be processed by wire EDM?
Wire EDM is used for conductive materials such as steel, stainless steel and tool steel, depending on the part geometry and technical requirements.
Can multiple manufacturing processes be combined?
Yes. Cutting can be combined with CNC machining, bending, welding, heat treatment, surface finishing, inspection and packaging.
