    1. 30 kw Laser Cutting

      30 kw Laser Cutting

      Sumac have recently purchased a Bodor 30kw laser with a working envelope of 3048mm x 1524mm, with a positioning accuracy of +-0.05mm and a repeatable accuracy of +-0.02mm. The laser is capable of cutting ferrous and non-ferrous materials from circa 1mm up to a maximum of 70mm thick in steel. The laser can cut ultra fine mesh profiles and filters and can also finish cut profiles and holes in fabricated components. Due to the lasers processing speed the company also uses it to rough out machined profiled parts prior to final machining, this avoids heavy cutting on our precision cnc machine tools where possible. The laser is set up to use either compressed air or nitrogen dependant on the application.

    4. 3D Printing

      3D Printing

      We have three different 3D printing technologies that we use in house. This variety enables us to ensure we use the best process for you. SLA: A wide variety of resins to suit your needs are available ranging from tough engineering grade resin to flexible bio-compatible materials. This machine is capable of producing one-off prototypes as well as production ready parts. FDM: Materials ranging from versatile ABS plastic through to clear flexible TPU grade polymers are available on this machine with a large printing volume. Used typically for producing one-off prototypes as well as production ready parts. SLS: Printing with Nylon 12, a fantastic ‘do it all’ material. This printing solution is perfect for batch production. Using various processes and materials we are able to 3D print products as well as prototypes. Using 3D printing for prototypes is a cost effective way of seeing your item in a real form and check for the end use.

    5. 3D Printing & Prototyping

      3D Printing & Prototyping

      3D printing and prototyping are essential tools for accelerating development and reducing risk in product design. At Flambeau Europe, we transform CAD data into physical models quickly, allowing customers to evaluate form, fit, and function before committing to tooling. This early validation helps secure stakeholder approval and ensures designs are optimised for manufacturability. Our prototyping capabilities cover everything from simple concept models to robust, functional parts. Depending on requirements, we select the most suitable process and material, delivering prototypes that closely replicate the look, feel, and performance of the finished product. This flexibility allows teams to test ergonomics, refine features, and explore material options with confidence. Beyond design validation, prototypes support real-world testing in assembly operations, ensuring parts integrate smoothly with other components. This prevents compatibility issues, streamlines tooling, and shortens time-to-market. For customers, it means fewer costly surprises and greater certainty that products will perform as intended. As part of our turnkey approach, 3D printing and prototyping link directly into CAD design, MoldFlow analysis, and tool manufacture. Each stage benefits from the accuracy and insight of the one before it, creating a smooth and reliable pathway to full-scale production. 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗳𝗶𝘁𝘀: • Faster decisions: Rapid prototypes for quick evaluation. • Reduced risk: Validate before investing in tooling. • Improved design: Spot refinements early. • Assembly confidence: Check fit and function in context. • Integrated workflow: Seamless link to design and tooling.
