Micro manufacturing

Micro manufacturing is achieved by using the latest in 3D printing technology to create micro-manufactured parts.

Applications
Micro manufacturing is achieved by using the latest in 3D printing technology to create micro-manufactured parts.

Micro manufacturing, via 3D printing, means we can create very intricate and detailed features with a high level of accuracy in prototype projects. Your projects can be produced quickly and with a high level of accuracy in batch volumes or as project prototypes. The process used during this is known as additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, where the material is laid down in layers under computer control to form a three-dimensional object. This is then built up from successive thin slices of material.

Micro-mechanical Applications
  • Micro connectors
  • 3D channels
  • Gears
  • Valves
  • Sensors
  • Jigs

Frequently asked questions
on medical applications

What is micro manufacturing, and why is it important?

ANSWER

Micro manufacturing involves producing extremely small and precise components for industries such as medical, aerospace, and electronics. Technologies like micro 3D printing play a key role in advancing your prototype for projects by enabling complex geometries at a micro-scale.

How does micro 3D printing compare to traditional micro machining?

ANSWER

Unlike CNC machining or injection moulding, micro 3D printing allows for the creation of intricate designs without the need for expensive tooling. This makes it a cost-effective option for prototype projects and small-batch production of precision parts.

 

What are common applications of micro manufacturing?

ANSWER

Micro manufacturing is used for producing gears, valves, micro connectors, and MEMS devices, which require extreme precision and reliability. Many companies leverage micro-scale additive manufacturing to meet these demands.

How accurate is micro 3D printing in micro manufacturing?

ANSWER

Advanced techniques can achieve resolutions as small as 2µm, feature sizes as small as 10µm and accuracies under 5µm, ensuring that even the most delicate micro mechanical components can be manufactured with exceptional precision.

Do you provide design support and optimization services for Micro3D printing?
ANSWER We specialise in bespoke automation solutions for the food and pharmaceutical industries. Our solutions are crafted with over 30 years of industry experience, guaranteeing high quality and efficient automation processes read to propel your production lines.
What industries benefit from micro manufacturing?

Medical technology, semiconductor development, telecommunications, and defence industries all benefit from micro-scale manufacturing methods. These sectors demand ultra-precise components for high-performance applications.

Can micro 3D printing be used for jigs and fixtures?

Yes, custom micro jigs and fixtures can be 3D printed to assist in assembly and testing processes, reducing lead times and improving production efficiency. This is particularly beneficial for manufacturers working with miniature components.
