It is a fact of life that components are getting smaller and smaller, especially in the medical, automotive, and electronics markets. New micromachining technology, including advanced laser markers ...

When it comes to machining, the material that springs to mind is likely to be aluminum, steel, or plastic. We don’t necessarily think of glass as a material suitable for machining, at least not in the ...

As finished products and component parts become smaller in line with design standards, and quality standards rise – precision manufacturing capabilities are becoming increasingly critical to machining ...

Fundamental fabrication issues for microscale components used in MEMS/Nanotechnology. Understand and designing microfabrication processes based on photolithography and deposition/etching steps. Micro ...

Micromachining applies computer numerical control (CNC) machining on the microscale. In an engineering context, that generally means dealing with dimensions between 1 and 500 micrometers (µm).

This Collection welcomes original research on laser micromachining, with a focus on the latest processing strategies, fundamental studies of laser-material interactions, and developments in ...

Sample preparation involves gaining access to a feature of a sample for subsequent analysis. Doing so allows engineers and scientists to find a solution for damaged parts or better understand ...
