At 865FabLab, we offer high-precision fiber laser cutting and laser welding services for metal fabrication projects where tight tolerances and clean edges matter most. Whether you're building components for architectural, manufacturing, or product development applications, our new system delivers industry-leading cut quality with minimal kerf, distortion, or finishing required.
What Sets Us Apart
Ultra-Fine Cutting Kerf
Achieve exceptionally narrow kerf widths for intricate parts, small components, and tight-fitting assemblies.
Clean Cuts, Less Finishing
Our fiber laser cuts cleanly through steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and more—with minimal burring or discoloration.
Laser Welding
Precise fusion of metal components with minimal heat-affected zones—perfect for spot welds, seams, and cosmetic finishes.
Fast Turnaround on Small Batches or Prototypes
Ideal for short-run manufacturing, bracket design, enclosures, fixtures, and hardware.
