Applications
Implementing micromachining techniques allows for a larger selection of materials and tighter tolerances ultimately broadening the complexity and usability of your applications. The demand for precision machined components, parts, and products has grown immensely. This need for micromachining has affected all industries, but because of the complexity, pinpoint accuracy, and tight tolerances associated with some industries it holds the strongest ties to the most demanding markets including: Medical, Aerospace, Automotive, Defense, Electronics/Semiconductor, and Telecommunications.
Semiconductor
The semiconductor market needs micromachined assemblies, components, switches, fuses, and chips. These products may require micromachining work to be as small as .001 inch in diameter. Below are some of the micromachining applications for the semiconductor industry.
- Test Sockets
- Subassemblies
- Optomechanical Devices
- Switches
