Detroit's Trusted Partner for Precision Laser Cutting

For over five years, Viking Laser has been providing precision laser cutting services to Detroit's automotive OEMs, defense contractors, and industrial fabricators. Our Roseville facility sits just 20 minutes northeast of downtown Detroit via I-94 strategically positioned to serve manufacturers across the city and surrounding areas.

Detroit's manufacturing ecosystem is unlike any other. With Ford in Dearborn, Stellantis along Jefferson and Mound, GM at the Renaissance Center, and hundreds of Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers operating out of Corktown, Delray, Southwest Detroit, New Center, and Poletown this city demands laser cutting partners who understand OEM specifications, PPAP documentation, and aggressive production timelines.

Whether you're a supplier in Hamtramck, Jefferson-Chalmers, or the East Industrial District, an R&D team near Wayne State University in Midtown, or an aerospace fabricator supporting Selfridge ANGB our ISO 9001:2015 certified shop handles it. We cut mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and copper to tolerances of ±0.005".

Case Study

How We Helped a Southwest Detroit Tier-Two Supplier Cut Lead Time by 55%

A Tier 2 bracket supplier in the Rouge industrial corridor was running a 17-day lead time with their previous cutting vendor generating recurring expedite fees and putting OEM schedules at risk.
After moving to Viking Laser, they settled into a consistent 6-day turnaround on their recurring part families.Eight months in, they've reduced buffer inventory by $240,000 and maintained clean on-time performance with their Ford and Stellantis accounts. No line stoppages. No chargebacks.
