About Us
Cut cleaner. Work faster. Lower costs.
Kerf Developments was founded in 2002. In the early days, the focus was on helping customers who had been struggling to get service and support for their cutting machines.
Those early days repairing a wide range of machines gave the Kerf team a great insight into many of the products in the market that were reliable and provided the quality that customers were looking for.
To this day, Kerf Developments remains privately owned and completely independent. This independence brings significant benefits for our customers. We are free to choose the products and suppliers that we believe provide the quality, reliability and service that our customers are looking for when they invest in a turnkey cutting machine package.
At Kerf, we believe that we offer best-in-class products across our product range of fiber laser, oxy-fuel, plasma, and waterjet cutting technology. We then back installations up with the highest levels of post-sales support and service.
Should your expectations be beyond the capabilities of the equipment we will advise accordingly. Kerfs reputation for providing high quality turnkey solutions means a great deal more to us than the sale of a one off machine.
oxy-Fuel
Cutting Machines
For the best quality and the most precise cuts on thicker material, OXY-FUEL profile cutting machines are certainly an excellent option to explore. At Kerf, your first choice for CNC cutting machine manufacturing, we can provide a wide range of different OXY-FUEL cutting machine options. Oxy-fuel cutting is a method that has been around for more than a century, dating back to 1907. However, it is still widely used today and is a critical technology in many sectors.
To cut metals, oxy-fuel cutting uses a mix of fuel gases and oxygen. A number of fuels may be used, with propane being the most popular. Speak to Kerf about our profile cutting machines to find out more.
Fiber Laser
Cutting Machines
Kerf’s fiber laser systems are engineered for high-speed profiling of mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminium. With their low operating costs, reduced maintenance, and excellent edge quality, they’re ideal for fabricators and manufacturers who need accuracy without compromise.
Whether you're cutting thin sheets or intricate profiles, our fiber laser machines offer unbeatable repeatability and reliability.
Plasma
Cutting Machines
Plasma cutters pass an electric arc through gas (often compressed air), which converts into a plasma arc that is used to cut through the metal. The interaction of gases, an electric arc, and a concentrated area of pressure within the cutting torch results in an electrically conductive ionised gas, commonly known as plasma.
Waterjet
Cutting Machines
Not only can this cutting method get through almost any material you ask it to, it also leaves you with little to no waste, and it is an extremely accurate profile cutting method. When it comes to choosing a cutting system that will offer you everything you need, waterjet cutting ticks all the boxes.
Waterjet cutting employs an abrasive grit carried by an ultra-high-pressure stream of water. This results in a smooth, precision-cut surface without a heat-affected zone.
Waterjet is the most adaptable method since it can cut nearly any material; even carbon steel is no match for it. Waterjet cutting is an extremely accurate process; It features a narrow kerf width, which allows for the cutting of delicate contours and the production of high-tolerance components.
