Cavities & 3D molds
Your micro-metal components precisely lasered instead of milled
Are you already having laser cutting done – or are you still milling?
We manufacture your cavities and topologies on a contract basis with 100% reproducibility. Laser ablation offers several advantages over HSC milling: smooth radius transitions, excellent surface qualities, tighter tolerances, and longer tool life. When will you request your free sample part?
Benefit from the latest laser technology without making any investment yourself.

Why choose HAILTEC as a supplier?
Expert for cavities made of hard materials
Carbide or powder-metallurgically produced high-performance steels such as > 67HRC are difficult to machine with milling technology. However, ultrashort pulse laser technology also excels with aluminum or stainless steel. This precise and material-friendly machining process outperforms high-speed cutting (HSC milling) in terms of:
- increased service life of the molds
- Process safety
- Reproducibility
- No electrode production necessary (≠ sinking erosion)
Measurement during production
For micrometer-precise tool shapes
On water-cooled precision machines from DMG MORI we also manufacture for you larger tool shapes of up to 250 mm x 250 mmThe laser creates the finished cavity or topology directly from the 3D model, in a single setup and without any applied machining forces. Thanks to repeatable process parameters, one shape is exactly the same as another. This is also ensured by the measurement during production: The Alicona µCMM measuring system measures the shape with micron precision.

We manufacture the smallest molds and cavities for you quickly and accurately. The image shows the topology for an indexable insert.
Die & Mold Die casting mold
3D die-casting mold made of tool steel, laser-machined
3D molds and embossing tools
Without a heat-affected zone, we laser your molds or stamps with high precision, even in carbide and hardened PM steels:
- Tolerances in the µm range
- Surface quality up to Ra 0,1 µm
These added values await you at HAILTEC
Good reasons for laser micro-cut components
precision
Micrometer-fine ridges, smallest spot diameters and Cuts repeatable and geometrically accurate – these are enormous advantages of laser microcutting.
For maximum precision, we combine the cold femtosecond laser with cutting gas – and thus achieve the finest bars and burr-free, almost right-angled cutting edges with surface qualities up to Ra 0,2 µm.
The quality of your microcomponents is measured and monitored by optical measuring systems with an accuracy of +/-1µm
Cost effectiveness
As a contract manufacturer for Laser micromachining We cut your parts with micron-precise fits and edges that require no rework. This is made possible by special ultrashort pulse laser technology.
The resulting laser cut is qualitatively comparable to the wire EDMThe advantage of USP laser microcutting: the laser is significantly more economical than wire erosion, even for batch sizes as small as 1.
Variety of materials
Since the Ultrashort pulse laser cuts without thermal influence, you get high-quality and reproducible results – regardless of the material.
Even brittle and temperature-sensitive materials as well as composites can be Laser microcutting easy to process. We can cut materials such as nitinol, titanium, medical stainless steel, or copper for you.
