Technical Support & Services

At Crida, we understand that precision laser cutting is just the beginning. Delivering truly successful sheet metal parts requires deep technical knowledge, proactive problem-solving, and seamless collaboration. That's why our comprehensive Technical Support & Services are integral to every laser cutting project we undertake.

Our experienced engineering team doesn't just operate the lasers; they become your dedicated technical partners. We offer robust support throughout your project lifecycle:

Design for Manufacturability Analysis: Our engineers review your designs early, identifying potential challenges (tolerances, feature feasibility,

material behavior under heat) and suggesting optimizations for cost-effectiveness, speed, and quality. Avoid costly revisions and production delays.

Material Expertise & Selection Guidance: Navigating complex material options? We provide insights on the best alloys and grades (steel, aluminum, stainless, specialty metals) for your specific application, considering strength, corrosion resistance, weldability, and cost, alongside precise laser cutting parameters.

Process Optimization Consultation: Need tighter tolerances, faster throughput, or specific edge quality? Our experts analyze your requirements and fine-tune laser parameters (power, speed, gas, frequency) and nesting strategies to achieve optimal results for your unique part.

Rapid Prototyping & Iteration Support: Accelerate your development cycle. Leverage our laser cutting for quick-turn prototypes and work directly with our engineers to refine designs based on real-world results, ensuring manufacturability before full production.

Application-Specific Engineering Solutions: Facing challenges with complex geometries, thin/thick materials, heat-sensitive components, or demanding industry standards (automotive, medical)? Our team develops tailored laser processing strategies to meet your exact needs.

Troubleshooting & Problem Resolution: Encountering issues with parts post-cutting (fitment, warping, edge quality)? Our technical support dives deep to diagnose root causes – whether related to the cut, material, or upstream design – and provides actionable solutions.

Seamless Integration Support: We collaborate closely with your team and our internal departments (welding, CNC machining, finishing) to ensure the laser-cut components integrate perfectly into the final assembly or downstream processes.

Continuous Improvement Partnership: We view every project as an opportunity to learn and improve. Our engineers proactively share insights and recommendations to enhance the performance, quality, or cost-effectiveness of your parts over time.

Request? Contact us about specific exotic metals or plastics.

• Q: What thickness range do you handle?
• A: Our advanced laser systems cut:

Thin Gauge: Down to 0.01 mm (ultra-fine precision for delicate components)

Standard Range: 0.5 mm to 20 mm (carbon steel, stainless, aluminum)

Thick Plate: Up to 30 mm+ (subject to material type and laser capability - inquire for specifics)

• Q: What tolerances can you achieve?
• A: We guarantee high precision.

Standard Tolerance: ± 0.10 mm (achievable across most materials/thicknesses)

Holding Tight Tolerances: ± 0.05 mm or better possible for critical features (requires DFM review)

Factors like material type, thickness, part geometry, and heat management influence final tolerance.

• Q: What file formats do you accept for quoting/production?
• A: Submit designs in:

Preferred Formats: .DXF (2D), .DWG (2D), .STEP (3D).IGES (3D)

Also Accepted: .PDF (with dimensions).SLDPRT (SolidWorks).IPT (Inventor)

Include material, thickness, quantity, and critical tolerances in your request.

• Q: Can you handle prototypes and low-volume orders?
• A: Absolutely. Laser cutting is ideal for:

Rapid Prototyping: Get functional parts in days, not weeks.

Low-Volume/Batch Production: Cost-effective for 1 to 1,000+ pieces.

Custom One-Offs: No minimum order quantity (MOQ) for many standard materials.

• Q: What secondary services do you offer?
• A: We provide true integrated manufacturing.

Post-Processing: Deburring, grinding, sandblasting, powder coating, anodizing (Al), passivation (SS).

Forming: CNC bending, folding, rolling.

Welding: Precision laser welding & TIG/MIG welding.

Machining: CNC milling, turning, drilling, tapping.

Inspection: Full CMM and QC reporting.

• Q: How long does production take?
• A: Lead times vary based on complexity and volume.

Prototypes: As fast as 1-3 days.

Standard Production: Typically 5-10 working days.

Large/Complex Orders: Discuss expedited options during quoting.
