What is Sheet Cutting?
Sheet cutting is a category of processes that slices into flat stock material following a profile to produce a shape. Sheet stock is cut using a high-powered CNC laser or waterjet. The material’s gauge determines the thickness of the part. From a one-off batch to mass production, custom designs can be cut in various materials ranging from plastics, elastomers, composites, metals, and more. Sheet cutting is also typical for blank preparation in other manufacturing processes like sheet metal fabrication or metal stamping.
Elimold’s sheet cutting service can cut just about any material using lasers and waterjet capabilities. From clear acrylic panels to thick tool steel, Elimold’s manufacturing marketplace offers a one-stop-shop solution for any project with instant quoting and a wide selection of materials.

What Finishes are Available for Sheet Cut Parts?
A standard finish is available for all materials. The top and bottom surfaces will be unmodified from the material stock. Plastics and cosmetically finished products may have an overwrap left on the faces for production. It is common for pre-polished, -brushed, or -textured materials to only have one side cosmetically finished.
Metal parts are sanded by hand, abrasive belt sander, or timesaver in the direction of the grain to create a uniform finish. This is also called linear finishing.
Metal parts are sanded by hand, orbital sander, or timesaver in a random pattern or swirl to create a uniform finish. This is also called a random swirl finish.
Metal parts are blasted with abrasive media, such as glass beads or sand, to provide an even matte finish across the surface. This is also called sandblasting.
Metal parts are tumbled in an abrasive media resulting in a uniform finish that also aids in part deburring.
Like our other services, elimold can offer turnkey finishing services like anodizing, chem-film, metal plating, powder coating, heat treating, passivation, and even multiple custom finishes.
