Hi all,
I am translating web texts relating to laser fabrication.
The sentence reads: "Beim Laserschneiden ist Präzision für uns das oberste Gebot. Wir bearbeiten alle Stähle und Edelstähle, NE-Metalle, Legierungen sowie Keramiken. Die Schnitteigenschaften beim Laserschneiden: Schnittfugenbreite Standard 0,14 mm; Schnittfugenbreite ***Feinstschneiden*** bis 0,02 mm, etc."
So the distinction between 'standard' laser cutting and 'Feinstschneiden' seems to be kerf width.
'Ultra narrow kerf cutting' sounds rather clunky. Any other ideas?
Many thanks!

ultra-fine cutting
resulting in a very small kerf width. You're not cutting the kerf.
