What is photo etching and features?
Photo etching has been well-known among manufacturers in various industry as more and more people require light and small products. However, there are still some people who don`t know what photo etching exactly is and how it works.
Hysonetch is engaged in photo etching for 10 years, now, we will make some basic introduction of photo etching for you:
1, what is photo etching?
Photo etching, also known as photo chemical etching, photo chemical machining, Photo Chemical Milling, Photofabrication and Chemical Blanking, it is a corrosion process to make metal components with tight tolerance and fine details, it is a valuable technique in making precision metal parts and decorative items, mainly sheets and foils.
The products includes such as:
Color television shadow masks
Integrated circuit lead frames
Surface mount paste screens
Heat ladders, plates and sinks
Optical attenuators, choppers and encoder disks
Grills, grids, sieves and meshes
Washers, shims and gaskets
Jewelry
Decorative ornaments
Signs, plaques and nameplates
2, Photo etching process:
Generally, there are 9 main process for photo etching , it is material preparation, material cleaning, photo-resist coating, printing, exposure, developing, etching, striping, inspection, every step need to be serious to make sure the high accuracy.?
Here is the photo etching process in Hysonetch for your reference:
3, What are the features of photo etching?
Photo etching is mainly used to make precision and micro metal components with features below:
Burrs and stress free
High precision, tight tolerance and high accuracy
Design flexible
Low cost and fast on sampling
No additional cost for complex design
Wide options for material
No change on material temper
These are the basic introduction for photo etching , hoping it can help you have a glimpse of photo etching. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us, our professional engineer team will offer free consultant for you.
