Frequently Asked Questions

Combination cutting and drilling is often the best choice when parts require drilled, tapped, countersunk, counterbored or chamfered holes in addition to cut profiles. While laser cutting can produce profiles, holes and bevels with a single laser head, combination processing provides additional hole-finishing capabilities for more complex fabrication requirements.
Leeco Steel processes carbon steel, HSLA steel and alloy steel plate using advanced combination cutting and drilling equipment. Our capabilities support both cut-to-size plate and fully processed cut-to-part components.
In addition to drilling, Leeco offers tapping, countersinking, counterboring and chamfering capabilities through our combination processing equipment. These value-added services help customers reduce secondary processing and receive parts that are ready for fabrication.
Combination processing is ideal for base plates, connection plates, gusset plates, structural components and other steel plate parts that require both precision-cut profiles and accurately located holes. It is frequently used on projects where minimizing fabrication time and improving production efficiency are critical.
