What Can You Expect From the Process?

The process is straightforward and designed to keep your project moving. Here is what you can typically expect when you work with Hunt Engineering:


  1. Submit your design files or project brief to the sales team.
  2. Receive a quote based on material type, thickness, and job volume.
  3. Files are reviewed and prepared for the cutting machines.
  4. Parts are cut on laser cutting beds sized at 1530mm x 3050mm with automatic sheet loading.
  5.  Finished pieces are inspected, and folding or bending can be arranged if required.


 This end-to-end approach means fewer handoffs and tighter quality control from start to finish.

Materials and Cutting Capabilities

Hunt Engineering can cut a wide range of metals. Mild steel, aluminium, copper, brass, and stainless steel are among the materials that may be accommodated depending on your project specifications. The team can also deliver edge finishing on select metals, including smooth edge finishes on mild steel and bright, oxide-free edges on aluminium, so parts often arrive ready for the next stage of fabrication.


If your project also needs welding, bending, rolling, or general sheet metal fabrication, the Hopleys Fabrication division works alongside Hunt Lasercut to provide a complete solution. Learn more at the Hopleys Fabrication services page.
