Laser Cutting Services in Minneapolis, MN

Fiber laser speed. CO2 versatility. One Minneapolis facility.

ELO Engineering provides precision fiber and CO2 laser cutting services from our Minneapolis, Minnesota facility, serving OEM and industrial manufacturers across the Twin Cities and greater Midwest. Our in-house laser cutting capabilities cover steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and copper — from prototype quantities to full production runs.

Our Minneapolis laser cutting operation runs two Trumpf TruLaser 3030 machines — one fiber laser, one CO2 — with sheet capacity up to 5 ft. x 12 ft. Both machines are capable of lights-out operation, providing expanded production capacity and faster turnaround times without adding shift cost. Our nesting software maximizes material utilization across every order, keeping your cost per part as low as possible.

Whether you need precision laser cut parts for a first-article prototype or a high-volume production program, ELO Engineering has the equipment, capacity, and experience to deliver. As an ISO 9001:2015 certified contract manufacturer and Demmer Corporation affiliate, we bring the quality systems and manufacturing depth your OEM program requires.
