Ultra-High-Precision Drilling

Ultra-high-precision drilling made possible using a beam rotator and galvano scanner manufactured in-house 

Equipment external view

Strengths

■ Straight hole drilling
■ Fine drilling with excellent circularity, high degree of freedom
■ Round holes, square holes, holes with special shapes
■ Control over hole diameter, taper at the entry and exit sides
■ Processing position accuracy:<1μm

Target materials

Resin, Ceramic (Silicon nitride / Silicon carbide), Polyimide, SUS, Sapphire substrate, Artificial diamond

Equipment features

Control of the radius of rotation and the angle of incidence with a beam rotator enables a variety of hole shapes
