What information do I need to request a laser cutting quotation?
A drawing or CAD file, material, thickness and quantity. You can also mention your delivery date and any bending, fabrication or finishing requirements.
Do you provide laser cutting and bending together?
Yes. CNC laser cutting and CNC bending run in the same workflow.
Do you provide tube laser cutting?
Yes — round, square and rectangular tubes, including holes, slots and profiles.
Can FabExpress manufacture complete fabricated assemblies?
Yes. Projects can include cutting, bending, welding, riveting, hardware insertion, assembly and finishing.
Do you handle prototype quantities?
Yes. We evaluate prototype, sample, small-batch and production requirements.
Do you provide surface finishing?
Yes — sand blasting, powder coating, zinc plating and CED coating.
Where is FabExpress located?

Can you deliver finished components?
Yes. We coordinate manufacturing through quality checking and delivery as agreed.
What information do I need for a laser cutting quotation?
A drawing or CAD file (DXF, DWG, STEP or PDF), the material, thickness and quantity. Mention your delivery date and any bending, fabrication or finishing you need.
Which materials can you laser cut?
Mild steel (CR and HR), stainless steel (SS 304, SS 316), aluminium (5052, 6061) and copper & brass.
Do you cut prototypes as well as production quantities?
Yes. We evaluate one-off prototypes, samples, small batches and repeat production.
What laser cutting machines does FabExpress have?
Four CNC fiber laser cutting machines: two 6 kW machines with a 6000 × 3000 mm bed and two 3 kW machines with a 3000 × 1500 mm bed.
What is the maximum sheet size you can laser cut?
Up to 6000 × 3000 mm on our 6 kW fiber lasers. The 3 kW machines take sheets up to 3000 × 1500 mm.
Where is your laser cutting done?
At our manufacturing plants in Chakan MIDC and Bhosari MIDC, Pune, serving Talegaon, Talawade, Ranjangaon and the wider Pune industrial belt.
Which file formats can I upload?
DXF, DWG, STEP and PDF drawings are accepted. DXF files get an instant price in our online quote tool.
How quickly can I get a laser cutting price?
Upload a DXF to the instant quote tool, pick the material, grade, thickness and finish, and the price is calculated in seconds — with quantity offers for 11+ and 101+ pieces.
Can laser-cut parts be bent, welded and finished?
Yes. Laser-cut parts can go straight on to CNC bending, fabrication and welding, sand blasting, powder coating, zinc plating or CED coating in the same order.
What bending methods do you offer?
Air bending, bottoming and coining on multi-axis CNC press brakes.
Can you make a part from a sample instead of a drawing?
Yes. Physical samples and reference components can be the starting point for a custom fabrication requirement.
Why sand blast before powder coating?
Blasting removes rust, scale and contaminants, which improves coating adhesion and consistency.
Can you zinc plate parts you manufacture for us?
Yes. Zinc plating can be added to the order for laser-cut, bent and fabricated steel parts — mention the finish requirement with your drawing.
Can CED coating be combined with powder coating?
Yes. CED can be the finish on its own or act as a primer under powder coating — share the finish requirement with your drawing.
