Laser Micromachining System

Overview

Micromachining — 355 / 532 / 1064 nm

Nanosecond, picosecond or femtosecond lasers with a galvo scanner and precision XY stages machine features too small or delicate for conventional tools — with a tiny heat-affected zone and burr-free edges.

What it does

Dedicated work this machine performs.

01Micro-cutting

Stents, shims, stencils and fine profiles in thin metal foil.

02Micro-drilling

Small holes in metal, ceramic, glass and polymer.

03Scribing & dicing

Wafers, ceramics, solar cells and glass.

04Thin-film ablation

Selective removal of coatings, ITO and conductive layers.

05Surface texturing

Functional textures on moulds and implants.

FAQ

Common questions

Nanosecond, picosecond or femtosecond?

Shorter pulses mean less heat and cleaner edges. We test your part and recommend the pulse width that gives the quality you need at the lowest cost.

What is the smallest feature?

It depends on material and thickness — send a drawing and we will confirm what is achievable.

Sample first, buy second.

Send your part — we run it on the Micromachining and send photos back. Need it customised or integrated into your line? We build that too.
