Laser cutting is the royal class among cutting processes. As a global supplier and experienced manufacturer of cutting systems for the industrial metalworking sector, Messer Cutting Systems sets standards in precision and safety. With our ELEMENT L and FIBERBLADE GU laser cutting machines, you cut plates with enormously high power density and the highest technical precision.
Laser cutting machines from specialized suppliers like Messer Cutting Systems are used in many branches of the metal industry, from the food industry to shipbuilding. Whether for small batches or mass production: laser cutting with systems from an experienced manufacturer is energy- and material-efficient.
With our laser cutting machines, you can cut, mark, and drill plates into any conceivable shape, from stainless steel and mild steel through to aluminium. Our FIBERBLADE GU is particularly suitable for vertical cuts in standard format plates. Precise bevel cuts for the preparation of all common weld seam shapes, along with other processing options, are achieved with our ELEMENT L in a single operation.
As a long-standing manufacturer and global supplier of laser cutting solutions, we have optimized our systems to offer you clear competitive advantages.

All advantages at a glance
Using the laser cutting process a multitude of the widest variety of materials can be cut, especially:
- Mild Steel
- Stainless Steel
- Aluminium
That means that you can process and cut to size every material common in industry. Depending upon process and material, plate thicknesses from 0.1 to 50 mm are possible. So laser cutting machines can be used for a wide spectrum of material properties: this makes laser cutting the most flexible cutting process in industry.
With a laser focus of about 0.2 mm, a laser cutting machine cuts particularly finely. In doing this, the material is only thermally stressed locally, and the cut width is hardly wider than the laser beam. Thanks to this, very little material loss and it is possible to cut very fine and complex contours. This means that laser cutting is flexible and applicable for a wide range of uses.
Regardless of which process is used, laser cutting machines operate with high precision and without high material loss. The material in the cutting gap melts or evaporates very fast and completely during cutting so there is hardly any distortion or slag formation. This produces precise and fine cut edges which in most cases need no finishing.
With laser cutting the material is only thermally processed locally, directly on the cut edge. This results in the material being hardly thermally stressed, in contrast to other processes, so that the material is conserved and is neither deformed nor damaged.
Laser cutting takes place with no contact, the material is only cut by the laser beam. Consequently the cutting machine is not worn by material contact and the plate is neither deformed nor damaged.
No cutting process can cover 100% of all cutting tasks. Our laser cutting machines enable you to combine a multitude of processes in one machine. Thanks to this you can execute all cutting tasks in one operation and save time, costs, and space. Thus you can, for example, combine laser cutting and plasma cutting or combine other drills and fine grinders.
Our material handling solutions enable you to maximise machine utilisation through automation. They are modular and can be configured individually according to your needs. This allows you to design your production processes more efficiently. In addition, micro-bridges between cut parts and the scrap frame can optimise handling. These webs can be easily removed later. The overall aim is to improve planning reliability and optimisation for sheet metal processors.
OUR SPECIALITY
Fibre Laser
Laser cutting machines with fibre laser technology, as provided by Messer Cutting Systems as an innovative supplier, bring numerous advantages. These systems are very low-maintenance and high-performing, as the laser is guided via a fibre optic cable and requires no complex adjustment work.
As a manufacturer of these systems, we place great value on versatility. In addition, fibre lasers deliver high component accuracy and low heat input – making them highly efficient.
