Micromachining Metals with New Laser Technology

Advanced laser markers with superior beam quality are one of the newer technologies available for micromachining metals, and their effect is frequently described as faster and more flexible than more standard methods like electric discharge machining (EDM), with comparable results.

High-volume manufacturers with machining projects that call for miniaturized machining methods can use a single-mode fiber marker to achieve excellent results on a range of materials, including steel, nickel, titanium, silicon, aluminum, and copper. Manufacturers and machinists thinking about updating or replacing EDM systems equipment, along with those who might otherwise choose laser-machining options, should consider micromachining.
