Laser Micro Machining

For over a generation, Laserod and its predecessor companies have provided laser micromachining products and services to many of the largest industrial corporations and most prestigious universities in the world. We assist companies in a broad variety of industries with their low-to-high production needs.

Laser micromachining is playing a crucial role in the manufacture of today’s electronic components as technology shrinks devices in size for improved performance and higher efficiency. Whether it be computers, medical devices, phones or automotive components, the demand for ever smaller parts increases every year by double digits.

Simply put, micromachining is the removal of small amounts of material by something other than a sharp edge tool. With lasers of the full range of wave lengths and rep rates, Laserod can machine materials as thick as 3mm and create features as small as 5-50 microns on nearly any thin material such as silicon wafers, plastic tubes, glass, metals, or ceramic. Among the numerous advantages of laser micromachining are minimal heat affect, closer tolerances, rapid cycle times, virtually no tooling cost, and high surface finish and edge quality.
