VT machining provides Laser Cutting Invar for customers who need accurate, repeatable Invar components. Because Invar is ultra-low thermal expansion, we adapt the process to suit — controlling the variables that matter for this alloy.
Laser Cutting Capability for Invar
- Fiber source 1–6 kW
- Kerf width 0.1–0.3 mm
- Contour tolerance ±0.05 mm
- Assist gas (N₂/O₂) selected per alloy
Why Invar for Laser Cutting
The reason customers specify Invar for Laser Cutting is straightforward — it is ultra-low thermal expansion. We handle the grade selection and any heat-treat or condition requirements with you.
How Laser Cutting Invar Works
Our Laser Cutting setup for Invar starts from your CAD model. The program, tooling and parameters are selected from the part geometry and the known behaviour of Invar, then verified on the first article.
Applications of Laser Cutting Invar
Typical uses for Laser Cutting Invar include precision Invar components for electronics, instrumentation, automotive, medical and energy applications.
Laser Cutting Quality & Inspection
Each Invar part is inspected against your drawing, with critical dimensions verified before the batch is released. Documentation can be provided on request.

Why is Invar a good choice for Laser Cutting?
Invar is ultra-low thermal expansion, which makes it well suited to Laser Cutting. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished Invar cutting part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
What is the typical lead time and minimum order for Laser Cutting Invar?
Laser Cutting prototypes for Invar can be produced quickly and scaled to series production. Send your drawing and quantity and we will advise lead time and any minimum order.
What tolerances can you hold for Laser Cutting Invar?
Achievable tolerances for Invar cutting depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. Laser cutting holds contour tolerances to around ±0.05 mm depending on thickness. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
How clean are the edges produced by Laser Cutting on Invar?
Laser cutting leaves Invar with a narrow kerf and a clean, near burr-free edge and only a small heat-affected zone.
