Custom Cutting

Any shape, any size — no one else does this in Europe

In short

CUPAL custom cutting means we cut the exact shape your joint needs out of a copper-aluminium bimetal board — a disc, a strip, a rectangle or a custom contour, in 0.5–2.0 mm. This is the service the electrical webshops that stock catalogue sizes cannot offer: there you fit your design to the available sizes, here your design sets the size. Quote within 24 hours from a drawing (DXF, PDF or JPG), production in 5–10 working days.

When is cutting to size worth it over a stock size?

We stock 11 washer sizes (M6 to M20) and four sheet thicknesses in a 500 × 500 mm board. While your joint fits those, the stock size is faster and cheaper. Custom cutting earns its place when the lug footprint matches no standard washer, when a busbar transition needs a 3–10 mm segment with its own hole pattern, when you are producing the same non-standard disc in series, or when a cabinet needs a transition plate of a specific contour. In those cases we buy the material as a board and cut your parts from it — a 500 × 500 mm board in 1.0 mm is HUF 60,000 net, and in theory 144 squares of 40 × 40 mm fit into it (12 × 12); actual yield depends on the cutting method and the tolerance you need. The per-piece price is always calculated from the drawing and the quantity.

Need a contoured part rather than a disc or strip? Whether laser cutting or a punching tool pays off depends on quantity and how final the drawing is — see laser cutting or punching for custom CUPAL parts.

Frequently asked questions about custom cutting

Discs, strips, rectangles or any custom contour. For more complex shapes our partners also handle CNC/laser processing.
DXF, PDF or JPG. Alongside the dimensions you can describe your exact requirements (thickness, quantity, tolerance).
For custom cutting the minimum is 1 base sheet (500 × 500 mm). Several pieces can be cut from it depending on the shape.
Custom cutting typically takes 5–10 business days depending on shape complexity. We confirm the exact date in the quote.
0.5 / 1.0 / 1.5 / 2.0 mm from board material. For busbar transitions we also cut 3–10 mm segments, priced separately.
It depends on the shape, the thickness and the cutting method — state the tolerance you need in the quote request and we will confirm in the reply whether it is achievable.
The board price (500 × 500 mm — 0.5 mm HUF 37,500, 1.0 mm HUF 60,000 net) plus the cutting labour, which depends on the complexity of the shape and the quantity. Per-piece cost drops sharply on larger runs.
Yes — EN 10204 2.2 as standard and 3.1 on request, exactly as for stock sizes. Cutting does not affect the certification of the base material.
