Sinar

27 – 30 August 2026 · Chennai Trade Centre

Taking Sheet Metal Processing to the Next Level

Chennai is a strategically important market for Laser Technologies Pvt Ltd, given its strong presence in the automotive, aerospace, engineering, and manufacturing sectors.

For the company, MF India 2026 provides an excellent platform to connect directly with key industry players, understand evolving regional requirements, and showcase its latest laser and sheet-metal manufacturing solutions.

“Through this inaugural edition, our objective is to strengthen our relationships with existing customers while building new partnerships across the region,” says Pankti Agarwal, Executive Director, Laser Technologies Pvt Ltd.

The company will be showcasing a comprehensive portfolio of advanced manufacturing solutions, including Laser Technologies CNC fiber laser cutting machines (2D & 3D), laser welding & automation systems, laser cleaning/marking machines, tube cutting & bending machines, CNC/NC sheet bending machines, sheet metal fabrication processing machines, robotic automation, Cobo + MIG applications, smart manufacturing technologies, panel benders, turret punch + laser combi machines, shearing machines, plate rolling machines, PU foam gasket machines, consumables & accessories, and laser sources.

“These solutions focus on precision, productivity, and automation, helping manufacturers improve efficiency and move towards smarter, more advanced manufacturing,” she adds.

Turning Smarter Cutting into Less Scrap

With rising input material costs, Laser Technologies believes reducing material waste is not just about cutting faster—it is about cutting smarter. The technologies it is showcasing are designed to help manufacturers achieve higher material utilization while maintaining high-volume production.

“Our advanced Han’s Laser’s high-power CNC Fiber Laser Cutting Machines (F - Master) deliver precise, consistent cutting with minimal kerf and reduced heat-affected zones, helping minimize unnecessary material loss,” explains Agarwal.

F - Master features up to 60 kW laser power, a working area from 3 m to 12 m, a heavy-duty and stable machine bed, a high-speed, high-precision gantry system, an intelligent HSG 1201 Plus system, and automatic nozzle centering and coaxial alignment.

“A key advantage is our RetenX Auto Nesting & Offline Programming Software, which optimizes part layouts on the sheet to maximize material utilization and reduce scrap,” she continues. By intelligently nesting components, manufacturers can significantly reduce the amount of unused sheet material, particularly in high-volume production.

The company also focuses heavily on automation and process optimization. Automated material handling, intelligent machine controls, and production monitoring help reduce manual intervention, improve consistency, and maintain throughput.

“Ultimately, our approach is simple: use every sheet more effectively, cut with greater precision, and keep the machine productive for longer,” she asserts. “This enables manufacturers to control input costs, reduce scrap, and achieve higher output without compromising quality.”

Faster Bends, More Consistent Results

“As an exhibitor at the inaugural edition of MF India, we see this dedicated metal forming platform as an important catalyst for accelerating technology adoption across the region’s MSME and OEM ecosystems.”

Laser Technologies’ showstopper at the event is the GHBM Press Brake Machine, engineered to deliver high-speed, high-precision bending with consistent results for demanding sheet-metal applications.

For fabrication and tooling engineers, the GHBM addresses a critical production challenge: achieving accurate, repeatable bends while reducing cycle time, setup time, and operator dependency. “Its robust construction, advanced CNC control, and precision bending capabilities help manufacturers improve productivity and maintain consistent component quality,” shares Agarwal.

The GHBM is particularly well suited for sheet-metal fabrication industries, as well as automotive and auto components, electrical panels, elevator manufacturing, furniture manufacturing, store fixture manufacturing, panel manufacturing, HVAC, infrastructure, construction equipment, and general engineering.

Designing Machines Around the Operator

For Laser Technologies, advanced machinery should reduce dependence on highly skilled operators without compromising precision or productivity. Its latest CNC and laser solutions are designed with user-friendly interfaces, intelligent controls, automated programming, and simplified machine operation, enabling operators to achieve consistent results with less manual intervention.

“From automatic parameter selection and CNC-controlled operations to intuitive software and automated processes, our machines help reduce setup time, minimize human errors, and make complex fabrication jobs easier to execute,” mentions Agarwal. This allows even operators with limited experience to quickly adapt to the machine and maintain consistent quality.

For Indian fabrication, forging, sheet-metal, and engineering industries, this means faster operator training, improved productivity, reduced dependency on individual skill levels, and more reliable production. “Our objective is simple: make advanced manufacturing easier to operate, easier to learn, and easier to scale,” she stresses.

Making Automation More Accessible to Industry

As an exhibitor at the inaugural edition of MF India, Laser Technologies sees this dedicated metal forming platform as an important catalyst for accelerating technology adoption across the region’s MSME and OEM ecosystems. “Chennai has a strong manufacturing base, with significant opportunities in automotive, engineering, aerospace, sheet metal fabrication, furniture, elevators, electrical panels, and general industrial applications,” further adds Agarwal.

For MSMEs in particular, access to user-friendly, automated, and scalable machinery can help overcome skilled manpower challenges while enabling them to take on more complex and high-volume requirements. “MF India provides a focused platform for manufacturers to experience advanced technologies in laser cutting, CNC bending, welding, and automation, while understanding how these solutions can improve productivity, precision, and overall manufacturing efficiency,” she concludes.
