Micromachining

Micromachining is a manufacturing process where material is removed from a workpiece on a micrometer scale. This technique is pivotal in producing microcomponents with high precision and crucial in industries like aerospace, medical devices, and electronics.

In micromachining, tools and methods are meticulously designed to handle dimensions and tolerances that conventional machining can’t achieve, marking a significant leap in fabrication capabilities. 

Laser micromachining is different from classic laser processing because it involves the use of very short pulsed lasers, allowing 'cold' processing of the material without heat input.

Parts made with this technology often do not require further processing, simplifying the production process.
