Geometry matters
Outline length, holes, slots, and pierces all affect laser time and material use.

What This Shows
How this sample part is priced.
These examples are meant to make the online quote behavior easier to understand before a buyer uploads their own file.
Quantity changes the unit price
Setup and handling are spread across more parts when quantities increase.
Your part will be recalculated
The live quote uses the actual uploaded geometry, selected material, thickness, and quantity.
Use It For Your Quote
Upload a similar part to see your exact result.
If your part is close to this example, the live quote page is the fastest way to see the real price impact of your file.
Use DXF for flat parts
A clean DXF is usually the fastest path for flat laser-cut brackets, plates, straps, and panels.
Use STEP or STP for 3D models
Flat STEP files can route as laser-cut parts, while formed STEP files are checked for bends and brake fit.
Review before checkout
The quote flow shows material, thickness, quantity, preview, and review messages before payment.
FAQ
Questions buyers ask before they upload.
Are these exact prices for my part?
No. They are sample prices from simple example geometry. Upload your CAD file for live pricing on the actual part.
Why does the unit price drop at higher quantities?
Setup and handling are spread across more parts, so the per-part price usually drops as quantity increases.
Can I quote a formed version of this part?
Yes. Upload a STEP or STP file when the model includes bends, and the site will route it through formed-part checks.
