Laser Drilling Steel Foil
Precise micro holes drilling (down to 1 µm diameter).
Foil perforation can be exploited for numerous tasks and applications, electronic circuitry, optical surfaces and apertures and mechanical filters are just a few that can be mentioned. Until recently this task would have been done by employing mechanical tools or long-pulsed lasers. The technical advances in femtosecond laser technology are making femtosecond laser machining of thin metallic coatings or foils a feasible solution when high quality features of a few micrometers are necessary.
Features of Laser Drilling technique:
-
Non-contact processing
-
Low heat input into the material
-
Flexibility to drill a wide range of materials (metals, ceramics, diamond, polymers, glass, sapphire, ect.)
-
Accuracy and consistency
-
Variety of shapes
-
Sub-micron holes
Laser Drilling Application Examples:
- Fuel injection components
- Vertical probe cards
- Metered dose inhaler products
- Pinholes and slits for scientific instrumentation
- Inkjet printer nozzles
- Detectors and sensors
- High resolution circuitry
- Fuel cells
- Fibre optic interconnects
- Medical devices and others
By following our experience of laser drilling and work with our customers and partners we have developed a reliable Femtosecond Laser Systems FemtoLAB and FemtoFAB, which can fully accomplish all tasks for industry and R&D researches.
