Laser Manufacturing Services
Do you need to manufacture a prototype, test a new laser process or produce a small series with high requirements for precision and repeatability?
LMI AB provides laser manufacturing services for companies that need access to advanced laser technology without investing in their own equipment. We primarily work with prototypes, process trials and small production series where flexibility, precision and process expertise are important. With our experience in industrial laser technology, we can assist from the initial evaluation of an application through to finished laser processing.
Laser Processing for Different Applications
LMI AB’s equipment and process expertise enable us to perform several different types of laser processing. Depending on the application, we can assist with laser cutting, laser welding and laser marking.
Laser Cutting
Laser cutting provides high precision and makes it possible to process complex geometries with narrow cuts and good repeatability.
Within our contract manufacturing services, the technology is particularly suitable for prototypes, special components and small series where flexibility and accuracy are important.
Laser Welding
Laser welding uses a concentrated laser beam to create narrow, precise welds with limited heat input to the surrounding material.
We can assist with welding trials, process evaluation and small production series where laser welding is a suitable joining method.
Laser Marking
Laser marking is used to create permanent, detailed markings on components and products. The technology can be used for text, serial numbers, part numbers, Data Matrix codes, QR codes, logos and other traceability information.
The process is suitable for both individual prototypes and small series where high repeatability and permanent marking are required.

Prototypes and Small Production Series
Our manufacturing services are primarily intended for applications where flexibility and technical expertise are more important than very high production volumes.
Typical applications include:
- Prototypes and development components
- Trial and pre-production series
- Small production series
- Process trials and application testing
- Special components with high precision requirements
- Evaluation of a laser process for future production
By combining access to laser equipment with our process expertise, we can help evaluate the application and establish suitable process parameters before recurring production is introduced.on etableras.
Test the Process Before You Invest
For companies considering an investment in their own laser equipment, a process trial or small contract-manufactured series can be a valuable first step.
By testing the application at LMI AB, the laser process can be evaluated using the customer’s own components and materials before a machine or complete laser system is specified.
Depending on the application, the trials can provide valuable information about:
- Selection of laser process
- Suitable laser power
- Processing speed
- Process quality and results
- Fixturing and component handling
- Automation requirements
- Requirements for future series production
Once the process has been verified, the experience gained during testing can be used as a basis for developing a future production solution.Idea → Process Trial → Process Evaluation → Production Specification → In-house Laser Equipment
When Is Laser Manufacturing Services a Good Choice?
Manufacturing services at LMI AB can be particularly useful when:
- Production volumes are limited
- A new product or process needs to be evaluated
- High precision and repeatability are required
- Suitable laser equipment is not available in-house
- A prototype or trial series needs to be produced
- A laser process needs to be verified before investing in your own equipment
For larger and recurring production volumes, investing in your own laser system may be a better long-term solution. LMI AB can then assist with the next step – from process evaluation to the selection and integration of suitable laser equipment.
From Manufacturing Services to In-house Laser Production
LMI AB works with both laser processes and the supply of laser machines, components and customised laser systems. This means that the experience gained from process trials or a small production series can be taken to the next stage if you later decide to establish the process within your own production.
Based on the application, we can help assess the type of laser, process equipment, machine solution and automation required.
This can make the transition from an initial prototype to an established industrial laser process easier and more predictable.
Do You Have a Component or Process You Would Like to Test?
Send us information about the component, material, required process and approximate production volume. Drawings, CAD files, images and other technical information make it easier for us to evaluate the application.
LMI AB can then assess the requirements and discuss the next step – whether you need a prototype, a small production series or an initial process trial before investing in your own laser equipment.
Contact LMI AB About Contract Manufacturing
Do you have a component that requires laser processing, a prototype that needs to be manufactured or a process you would like to test before moving on to series production?
LMI AB can help evaluate the application based on the material, component geometry, required laser process, quality requirements and production volume. We can also help evaluate the process as a first step towards a potential future investment in your own laser equipment.
Please send drawings, CAD files, images or other technical information together with your enquiry. The more information we have about the component and the required result, the better we can assess the application.
