With an emphasis on precise, small parts (.125′′ thickness) that demand great edge quality and close tolerances to 5um, we specialise in laser micromachining and micro-manufacturing services.
Laser micro-machining has taken over as the industry standard with little to no additional finishing steps when feature sizes and tolerances exceed traditional machining capabilities.
Our laser femto laser cutting & micromachining services offer a wide choice of materials to match the needs of your project or part thanks to a variety of customised laser equipment.
Universities, engineers, and researchers from the aerospace, military, microelectronics, and medical device industries are a few of our clients.
LASER ADVANTAGES OVER TRADITIONAL MACHINING
Non-contact stress
Smaller Feature Sizes
Minimal Heat Effect
There are no tooling fees.
Leverage with Less Material Waste Small Lot Sizes
Closer Tolerances
Metal parts that have undergone laser micromachining
Alloy steel, aluminium alloys, brass, carbon steel, molybdenum, stainless steel, titanium, platinum, and tool steel are just a few of the types of sheet metal that are appropriate for cutting with UV, CO2, and fibre lasers. Slots for stencil masks, hole orifices for gas flow restrictors, slits in optical apertures or filters, and tubular sections with specialised patterns are a few examples of applications. Laser cutting makes it far simpler to design and manufacture complicated details and extremely sharp corners.
Alloy steel and tool steel: The majority of alloy steels are regarded as excellent candidates for laser cutting because attention is made to regulate the amount and distribution of additions to the base iron. High strength materials like 4130 (chrome moly steel) and 4340 (chrome nickel moly steel) exhibit superb laser cut edges that are square and clean. Stainless steel: High-power CO2 and Fiber lasers produce dross-free edges without deburring for clean cutting of sheet metal manufactured components made from stainless. The laser process reduces the HAZ around the cut edge, aiding in the material’s ability to resist corrosion. At the same time, the cut edges are tidy, clean, and square.
Titanium: Pure titanium reacts favourably to the concentrated heat energy of a focused laser beam. Although using an oxygen assist speeds up cutting, it tends to encourage a thicker oxide layer along the cut edge.
