Precision Cold Saw Cutting
Our Oakland facility specializes in precision cold saw plate cutting. This process virtually eliminates the heat affected zones often incurred as part of the plasma cutting process and minimizes labor time and expense. Precision cold saw cutting produces square and parallel edges at standard length and width tolerances flattened, deburred, and machine ready. Have questions about our cold saw cutting process?
