We have 1" thick PU plates with approx a 1/16" to 1/8" metal plate in them. What is the easiest way to cut this. Can we use a cutter/grinder that we would use for metal? Or is there another/better way?
 
Band saw.

Grinder will likely result in a sticky mess.
 
The original manufacture would be the best source as they probably cut it and reference it everyday.

If you have a lot of them, consider water jet.
 
We cut up to 100 mm PU plates with steel backplating with a bandsaw
Try it and succes
