We Are Proud To Announce Our New Laser

A brand new Mechtronic Laser System with a 3rd Generation Rofin laser has been installed into a Birmingham based cutting forme manufacturer.

Halesowen based Crosland Cutters recently took delivery of the new state of the art laser system as part of an ongoing investment plan to improve efficiency and capacity in a growing market place. The new equipment is 20% more efficient, uses less power and achieves greater running speed, it is hoped that the Laser will improve the green credentials of Croslands Cutters. The system also incorporates a Rotary die cutting facility, developed in conjunction between Croslands and Mechtronic Industries which utilises a cantilever style lifting mechanism to raise the Rofin laser head from 0 to 650mm. The rotary facility is now the only manufacturing resource of its size in the Midlands area, the nearest similar manufacturing facility being in Stockport to the North & Chelmsford to the South. Croslands has already created 4 new jobs, taking on 2 new apprentices, 1 new member of the office team and 1 member in the finishing department and is hoping to employ several more over the next 12 months.

  “The new laser will breathe fresh life into Crosland Cutters, opening up new opportunities and allowing us to enter new market places, while maintaining our existing customers”. Crosland Cutters was founded in 1972 and has built a solid reputation in supplying dieboards and to a range of industries including aerospace, automotive, retail, point-of-sale and jigsaw puzzle manufacturers to name a few, supplying finished boards in a turn-around time of 48 hours or less. In order to capture a larger share of the market and to implement their ongoing investment plan, Crosland Cutters purchased this second laser system. Having previously bought their first laser cutter from Mechtronic Limited in 2000, they had been very happy with the reliability and low maintenance of the machine and ROFIN laser source combination.

After much deliberation and collaboration with customers, Crosland Cutters has decided not to renew its ISO certification. Although it is something we strived to achieve it boiled down to return on investment and time taken to maintain. Crosland Cutters has now been trading for 52 years, in which time we hope to have set a certain level of standards, to which we intend to continue to use and improve upon.  Our decision was not taken lightly and will by no means affect our high standard of workmanship and service.
