Laser cutting is a method of cutting to specific shapes flat sheet metal and other materials. Industrial laser cutters are used mostly to cut flat sheet material or structural or piping metals. The laser cuts the material by burning, melting, or blowing it away. In industrial laser machining there are many different types of laser cutting systems for different types of materials. Laser cutting is preferred over mechanical cutting for thick flat sheet material or when precision machined parts are needed.

- Neodymium Laser Cutters: Neodymium lasers are often used primarily for boring. These lasers are typically for small or medium sized cutting, and are also used in a wide range of research applications, most notably in nuclear fusion research.
- Neodymium Yttrium-Aluminium-Garnet Laser: Better known as the Nd-YAG laser cutters, can produce high-power beams necessary for cutting. This type of laser cutters, work in pulse mode and are often used to engrave, bore or pierce materials. These lasers are also used in medical
