Micro drilling is a laser micromachining process which creates extremely precise micro scale holes in material. Different hole shapes; round, square, rectangular, oval etc. can be produced by varying the drilling technique.
From standard pinholes in stainless steel discs to complex arrays in semiconductor guide plates, we provide a wide range of drilling services in the production of parts for numerous applications.
In fact, with over 25 years experience in laser micromachining, we have developed processes and capabilities to machine almost all materials, even hard to machine ceramics and transparent materials in our applications laboratories.
A range of examples can be found in the applications shown below.
