What Is Micro Laser Cutting

Micro laser cutting is a precise manufacturing process that uses a focused laser beam to cut extremely small and intricate patterns or shapes on various materials with high accuracy. This technology enables the cutting of materials at a micron level, allowing for intricate designs, tight tolerances, and minimal heat-affected zones.

The process involves the use of a focused laser beam, typically a CO2 or solid-state laser, directed onto the material surface. The intense heat generated by the laser beam melts, burns, or vaporizes the material along the desired cutting path. The beam is controlled by computer numerical control (CNC) systems, which precisely guide the laser according to the pre-programmed design.

Micro laser cutting finds applications in various industries, including electronics, medical devices, aerospace, automotive, and microfluidics. It is used to create small components, micro-parts, stents, sensors, micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), and intricate patterns on materials like metals, plastics, ceramics, glass, and thin films.

The advantages of micro laser cutting include high precision, minimal material distortion, the ability to create complex geometries, and the absence of direct physical contact between the cutting tool and the material, reducing the risk of contamination or damage.

Precision Micro Laser Cutting Service & Miniature Parts Cut

Micro laser cutting pushes the limits of precision and size.Micro laser cutting is a powerful tool for crafting exact, tiny plate and pipe.These pipe or plate can be cut down to one-thousandth of a millimeter, helping make the production of tiny parts more efficient and realistic.

The Metal Material Of Micro Laser Cutting

Metal material can be easily machined and have a low raw material cost, making them often the most economical choice for prototyping and Micro laser cutting.There are a few factors to consider when choosing the right metal for Micro Laser Cutting. The metal you choose is critical to your ultimate success. For example, metals may need to withstand high temperatures or bend or break under pressure. When choosing the right metal, corrosion resistance, machinability, price, weight and visual appearance all play a role.

Top China Pipe/Plate/Sheet Micro Laser Cutting Case Studies

Laser cutting processes such as fiber laser cutting , Co2 laser cutting and Micro laser cutting are today considered the most economic way to make metal prototypes. Sometimes, however, certain non-machiningable materials are needed, and sometimes sheet metal is the only option. Our company has rich experience making metal concept models and precise functional components. Understanding the properties of different metal material, with lots of testing and experimentation with pre-heating, tool paths and other factors, we are able to minimize deformation on metal material. Be-cu prototyping company provides a range of solutions for the cutting of Metal Parts.
