Configure your Finecut

01 · Application

Where will Finecut create value?

Select all relevant industries. This helps us prioritise the right application questions.

Medical devicesImplants, instruments and precision components Aerospace & defenceAdvanced alloys, composites and critical parts Photonics & opticsGlass, ceramics and optical components Semiconductors & electronicsWafers, packages and sensitive structures Advanced materialsNew alloys, ceramics and layered materials Contract manufacturingFlexible capacity across many applications Luxury & watchesSapphire, ceramics and intricate geometry Research & developmentA flexible platform for evolving requirements Other applicationLet the technical requirement lead

02 · Material

What must be cut?

Select all relevant material groups and thickness ranges. Final cutting data is always qualified on each actual material.

Metals & alloysSteel, titanium, nickel alloys, Nitinol Glass & brittle materialsOptical glass, quartz and similar materials Technical ceramics & hard materialsZirconia, alumina, sapphire and similar materials Composites & stacksCFRP, laminates and dissimilar layers Polymers & soft materialsElastomers, plastics and delicate materials Mixed / evolvingSeveral materials or early-stage R&D

Hazard classification across your materials

Hazardous materials require equipment for controlled water handling. Finepart offers different solutions for R&D/prototyping and medium- or high-volume production. Discuss the application with your Finepart sales representative for advice.

YesNoNot sure

03 · Part size

How much working area is?

Select all required working areas. The largest selected area determines the starting platform.

Within 500 × 500 mmStandard Finecut working area Within 500 × 1,000 mmLarger parts or multi-part fixtures Beyond standardApplication-specific machine dimensions

04 · Geometry

How must the jet reach the part?

Select all required geometries. Finepart will verify which motion concept covers the combination.

Flat precision2D contours with coordinated X, Y and Z motion Rotate the workpieceTubes, cylindrical parts and multi-side access Tilt the jetUni-directional chamfers and angled edges Control taperTaper compensation, bevels and controlled 3D cutting Complex 3D accessTilting cutting system plus workpiece rotation Dynamic contour bevelsSynchronised angled contours and special geometries

05 · Production

How will the capability be used?

Production intent influences modularity, nesting, handling and the level of process support.

Select one or more options. You can combine R&D with production.

R&D and prototypesFrequent changes and broad material flexibility Dedicated productionA stable part or recurring product family Flexible seriesMultiple parts, batches and repeatable output

Decision priorities

Highest precisionFlexibilityThroughputFocused precision / budget

Current machining processes across your applications

This helps Finepart understand whether the priority is a new capability or an improvement to an existing process.

YesNoIn development

06 · System functions

What should the system support?

Select all relevant needs. Finepart will confirm compatibility and the final scope.
