Cutting the Uncuttable — Precision Meets Innovation At ATS Group, we continuously challenge the limits of material processing. One of the most demanding materials we work with is 3M™ Safety-Walk™ — known for its highly abrasive surface and exceptional durability. While these properties make it perfect for anti-slip applications, they also make it extremely difficult to convert using traditional methods. 👉 Conventional slitting with blades? Not ideal. The abrasive coating rapidly wears down knives, leading to frequent downtime, inconsistent quality, and increased costs. Our solution? Laser precision. Using our advanced Trotec laser technology, we process Safety-Walk into long, precise strips and complex custom shapes — with: ✔ No tool wear ✔ Consistent high-quality edges ✔ Maximum flexibility in design ✔ Efficient and scalable production This approach allows us to unlock new applications and provide tailor-made solutions for our customers — something that simply isn’t possible with conventional converting methods. Innovation is not just about new products — it’s about rethinking how materials can be processed. Looking for a solution for complex or difficult-to-convert materials? Let’s talk. #ATSGroup #Innovation #LaserProcessing #3M #SafetyWalk #Converting #Manufacturing #IndustrialSolutions
