Our laser micro-hole drilling service provides access to world leading precision hole drilling technology. This service can be used for R&D through to full production. Minimum micro-hole sizes can be as low as 1 micron in thin materials.
For micro-holes above 20 microns in diameter, we can use our proprietary trepanning technology to create micro-holes with unsurpassed roundness and controlled taper.
Using a variety of IR, visible and UV sources, we select the correct wavelength and pulse duration, develop the laser micro-hole drilling process and produce the parts. Numbers of micro-holes per part can range from one to tens of thousands. Typical quantities of parts range from one-off for R&D, to tens of thousands per month.
