Precision laser cutting is an attractive micromachining technique for most materials. Features down to 5 microns wide and up to 1.2 mm deep can be machined typically.
Wide variety of materials
Almost any type of material can be laser micro-cut. Materials which can be machined include:
- metals: stainless steel, hardened steel, copper, aluminium, brass, tungsten, titanium
- ceramics: alumina, zirconia, machinable ceramics, green ceramics, PZT, silicon nitride, tungsten carbide
- super hard materials: diamond, silicon nitride, tungsten carbide
- plastics: polyimide, PTFE, PMMA, Kapton, Vespel, Cirlex, ABS
- glasses and crystaline materials: BK7, sapphire, fused silica
Oxford Lasers Offers a range of laser microcutting systems and also can perform process development and sub-contract laser micro-cutting services.
