Profile Cutting
About Profile Cutting
CNC laser cutting is a cost-effective means of manufacturing small and medium-sized parts from flat sheet metal, which is why at METALtech uk we are committed to continually developing this process.
Our Swiss-manufactured 6.0kw Bystronic BySprint Pro CO2 laser cutting and piercing technology delivers exceptional quality across the entire range of metal sheet thickness for fast job processing and subsequent maximum parts production.

Bending, Drilling & Countersinking
Our profile cutting portfolio includes our bending, drilling and countersinking processes, all carried out on-site at METALtech uk’s dedicated facility in Dundee, on Scotland’s east coast.
For processing large sheets, we use our PBS 3108/160 CNC hydraulic press brake to form top-quality products by folding profiles to the client’s exact requirements. This technology has a bend accuracy at least five times higher than conventional press brakes and is ideal for complex multi-bending operations where volume and accuracy are essential.
Key features of our PBS 3108/160 CNC hydraulic press brake include…
- Strong welded monobloc frame capable of withstanding deflection under maximum load
- High-precision linear scales for stroke depth measurement mounted on the sides — not the top beam — to prevent any inaccuracy caused by distortion when the beam comes under load.
Bending capacity of our PBS 3108/160 CNC hydraulic press brake…
- Bending power of 160 tonnes
- Bending length (over tooling) of 3,100 mm.
METALtech uk’s in-house drilling and countersinking ability ranges from 5 mm to 30 mm diameter, and we use the best technology available to allow the shortest lead times possible while still maintaining maximum quality.
