Cut, Formed,
Cleaned & at Your Dock
in Hours. Not Weeks.
When your primary vendor quotes a 3-week backlog or your plasma table drops offline mid-shift, Hot Shot Laser bails you out. We operate 2kW fiber plate cutting, pulsed laser rust stripping, CNC press brakes, 4x8 routing, continuous CO2 passthrough, and white metal spin casting with direct hot-shot delivery across Austin, San Antonio, DFW, and Waco.

Our 2kW fiber laser delivers clean, dross-free edge profiling in mild steel (up to 1/2"), 304 stainless (up to 1/4"), and 5052 aluminum. The open-rear passthrough allows continuous indexing of 10' and 12' structural plate and linear tubing.
Why Texas Fabricators Rely on Hot Shot Laser
National online aggregators ship fragile sheet metal in parcel cardboard boxes that get bent in transit. Legacy regional job shops take 3 days to answer an email. Here is how we compare:

Complete Machine Floor Capabilities
Most shops only run one machine. We combine heavy plate fiber laser cutting, pulsed laser rust stripping, CNC aluminum milling and 4x8 routing, continuous CO2 passthrough, dual MOPA metal marking, and white metal spin casting under one roof.
2kW Fiber Laser
High-power piercing and dross-free edge profiling in mild steel (up to 1/2"), stainless steel (up to 1/4"), and 5052/6061 aluminum plate. The open rear door indexes continuous 10' and 12' structural plate and linear tube.
Laser Rust Stripping
Pulsed laser ablation instantly vaporizes thick rust, mill scale, baked powder coating, and oil without sandblasting, chemical acids, or substrate erosion. Leaves virgin, weld-ready bare metal with zero dimensional loss.
CO2 Laser Passthrough
Flame-polished edge acrylic cutting, intricate architectural hardwood veneers, thick tooling leather, neoprene, and continuous roll-fed gasket stock processed through our open front-and-rear passthrough chassis.
CNC Aluminum & 4x8 Routing
Dual CNC routing capacity: 48"x96" gantry for full-sheet Baltic birch, MDF, HDPE, Delrin, and thick plastics, paired with our high-rigidity CNC for precision 6061 aluminum plates, brass master patterns, and engine mounting components.
CO2 Multi-Material Cutting
CO2 laser cutting for cast acrylic, Baltic birch, architectural wood, tooling leather, neoprene, and gasket materials. Cut intricate fretwork and nested parts with clean edges across non-metal substrates.
CNC Aluminum Milling
Vertical CNC machining for aluminum plates, pockets, slots, engraved features, and precision brackets. Active coolant and chip evacuation support repeatable production work.
Dual MOPA UID Marking
Non-ablative black annealing on 304/316 stainless steel and titanium, dark contrast marking on anodized aluminum, and crisp Mil-Spec UID 2D DataMatrix barcodes and sequential serial tags that resist chemical baths and harsh outdoor weather.
White Metal Spin Casting
Machined aluminum master patterns, vulcanized silicone molds, and dual centrifugal spin rigs. Pours white metal and lead-free pewter for custom architectural cabinet pulls, machine emblems, structural brackets, and zinc-alloy engine components.
