Micromachining

Emerging miniaturization technologies are driving developments in microscale processes, machines, metrology to meet needs related to part size, feature definition, accuracy and precision, and materials developments. Highly precise and accurate micro components with size ranging from few hundred microns to few millimeters and features ranging in few hundred microns are in high demand for industries such as automotive, electro-optics, aerospace, biotechnology, information technology etc. The term micro manufacturing refers to the creation of high-precision three dimensional (3D) products using a wide range of engineering materials and possessing features with sizes ranging from tens of micrometers to a few millimetres.Facilities of micro machining like microcutting microdrilling and micromilling with tools micro EDM, micro LBM, and conventional tool to process with in situ measurement technology and integrated grinding tool manufacturing.
