About Micro Machining Services

Micro machining services perform precision machining operations on small parts to achieve intricate details. They perform machining activities such as drilling, milling, turning, screw machining, Swiss machining, electrochemical machining, photochemical machining, laser machining, and electro discharge machining (EDM). Micro machining services may also provide specialty machining services such as gear, jig, and fixture manufacturing; casting and forging machining; and tool and die production. Material capabilities are an important parameter to consider when selecting micro machining services. Companies that micro machine metals can work with aluminum, brass, bronze, cast iron, copper, hardened metals, nickel and nickel alloys, precious metals, steel, stainless steel, steel alloys, and titanium. Non-metallic materials for micro machining services include carbides, ceramics, composites, natural or synthetic diamond, glass,


Products & Services Related to Micro Machining Services

Centerless Grinding Services
Centerless grinding services perform a machining operation in which an abrasive wheel grinds metal from a bar surface while a regulating wheel forces the bar against the grinding wheel.
CNC Machining Services
CNC machining services use fast, repeatable, and programmable machines which can function while unattended in order to manufacture parts quickly and efficiently.
EDM Machining Services
EDM machining services remove metal by burning instead of cutting or grinding. There are three basic types of electro discharge machining (EDM) operations: electrode EDM, wire EDM, and small-hole EDM.
Lapping Services
Lapping services uses a free abrasive machining process, which produces finished components without introducing stresses and heat damage associated with other processes.
Laser Machining Services
Laser machining services use computer-controlled lasers to perform a variety of material removal processes. These lasers can be positioned and controlled with a high degree of accuracy, allowing for a variety of effects to be achieved.
Machine Shop Services
Machine shop services use machinery or equipment to perform custom removal of material to fabricate a finished part.
Water Jet Machining and Abrasive Machining Services
Water jet machining services and abrasive machining services direct a jet of water and abrasive at the material to be machined.
