Atometric's product line of
micro machining centers provide a 100 mm x 100 mm x 100 mm 5-axis contouring work envelop in a machine within a 1 m x 1 m footprint, drawing less than 1 kW power.

* The angle encoder modules represent a successful merging of the key requirements for precision rotary axes used in metrology, calibration devices, automation technology,
micro machining, and the semiconductor industry.
Micro machining addresses this need while still maintaining the ability to offer high quality results and exacting tolerances.
I hope that, as in the case of the warmer weather, the wait for this issue will have been well worth it, as we have prepared some great content for our readers interested in
micro machining, lasers, micro metrology, MEMS and other areas of micro manufacturing.
Other abilities of this 2D and 3D computer-controlled
micro machining include shallow entry, non-circular shapes, excellent surface quality, precise tapers, blind depths and calibrated hole diameters.
Willemin 508B 5-axes
micro machining center is equipped to use either round or profiled bar stock up to 1" diameter.
What clear business advantages do MEMS micro manufacturing technologies provide over and above the benefits of using traditional and more recently emerged
micro machining techniques, such as conventional
micro machining (milling, drilling), laser
micro machining, etching, EDM, ECM, waterjets, lithography and other processes?
