If you need holes, slots or patterns punched into sheet metal — a laser cutter is expensive and slow for this kind of job. And the big CNC shops want high volumes they can run all day. We exist for the gap in between: small-to-medium batch work, done properly, without the runaround.
A quick look at the Armada PEGA 358 at Halas, what it does, and how fast it does it.
DXF, STEP or SolidWorks files are ideal. Got a physical sample? That works too. Just tell us what you need and how many.
We'll confirm whether the job is a fit for our machine, give you a price, and book your slot. Typical lead time is 1-2 weeks.
Bring your material to Halas Industrial Estate. We do the work. You collect finished parts. Most customers are local, if you're further afield, ask us about courier options.
"Sent the drawings over on Monday, had a price the next day and dropped off the material and collected in less than a week. Exactly what we needed. Easy to deal with, fair price, decent finish. We will be using again."

We work businesses that know what they need and just need to get it done.
Not sure if your job fits? Give us a call or drop your details in the form below. We'll tell you straight whether it's the right process, no wasted time for anyone.
DXF, STEP or SolidWorks files are ideal. We can also work from a physical sample in some cases. We don't offer a full drawing service as standard, come to us with your design ready.
Our machine takes up to 2000mm × 1270mm (roughly 8′ × 4′). We work comfortably up to 4mm and can go to 6mm on some jobs depending on the blank size and hole pattern.
We prefer free issue, you supply the sheet metal and we do the work. We can source material in some cases but we'll require a deposit, and pricing is only valid for 24 hours.
Typically 1-2 weeks from booking. A 50-off batch is often just a few hours of machine time, most of the lead time is scheduling your slot.
No strict minimum, but we're set up for batch runs of 20 and above. Under 20 off we'll still quote, it just depends on whether the numbers work for your job.
For designs with holes, slots, squares and circles, a turret punch is faster and more cost-effective than laser. Laser wins on complex curves and profiles. If your job is hole-heavy, we're usually the better call.
Every job is different, but most batch runs of 20-100 off come in between £80 and £500 depending on material, thickness, hole complexity and quantity. The more you run, the better the unit cost. Send us your spec and we'll give you a straight price, usually same day.
