Metal Cutting Services for Copper & Aluminium in the UK
Precision metal cutting for copper, aluminium and specialist components, supplied to size and specification.
Metal Cutting Services
ILF Products provides metal cutting services in the UK for electrical and engineering applications. We cut copper, aluminium and other specialist metals to size for busbars, connectors, fabricated profiles, sheet metal parts and custom components. As a result, material arrives ready for the next stage.
What is Metal Cutting?
Laser cutting removes material along a programmed path to produce the required size, shape or profile. The beam follows the drawing exactly. That gives accurate dimensions, clean edges and repeatable results, which is why it is the normal preparation step before machining, bending, punching, plating or final assembly.

Why Choose ILF for Metal Cutting?
Accurate cutting lets ILF Products prepare metal for further manufacture. It also lets us supply dimensions that suit your production process better than standard stock lengths. Cutting draws on our copper, aluminium, brass, bronze and stainless steel stock, alongside in-house punching, bending and CNC machining in Cannock, Staffordshire. Consequently, a cut-to-size order can be the first stage of a fully coordinated manufacturing requirement, managed by one UK supplier.
