Overcoming metal machining stress to maximise quality

In metal machining, stress is a constant factor which has the potential to compromise the quality of the components produced. Brought about through traditional manufacturing methods, there are two common types of stress – thermal and cutting edge. Here, Karl Hollis, Engineering Director at Precision Micro has explored these common problems and their impacts, and suggests how stress can be eradicated to consistently produce components of the...

Manufacturing the impossible with photo chemical etching

For designers looking to manufacture burr and stress free metal parts with complex geometries, maintain the flexibility to make last minute design changes, and mass produce prototypes quickly, photo chemical etching is increasingly seen as the answer. Chemical etching offers both an economical and efficient solution, and allows for the mass production of incredibly intricate, thin metal parts at a fraction of the cost of other methods.
