Machining of small 3D structures and precise blind features can be achieved with the precise dimensional control, low levels of recast material and small heat affected zone characteristic of Oxford Lasers micromachining systems. Careful control of the laser parameters and manipulation of the work piece make it possible to micro-mill these fine features.

Careful control of the laser parameters and manipulation of the work piece make it possible to micro-mill these fine features.
The unique characteristics of the laser used make it possible to mill slots as narrow as a few microns and with the correct configuration can be used to produce contoured features over a relatively large area. With the combination of high precision and high material removal rate, this technique is well suited to machining small components or simple micro-moulds
As well as micro-milling Oxford Lasers systems excel in other areas of micro-machining where small feature size and high precision are required without heat damage and at high production rates. Micro-drilling, cutting, etching, and high resolution marking can all be achieved, in all hard materials like metals, ceramics and diamond, from a single system.
