Nickel etching is a precision, non-contact process that selectively removes material to form intricate patterns from thin metal sheets. By eliminating mechanical stress, it preserves nickel’s corrosion resistance, thermal stability, ferromagnetic behavior, and protective oxide layer—properties often compromised by mechanical processing.
Whether you need EMI/RFI shielding, high-temperature filters, or precision grids as thin as 0.03mm, nickel etching delivers consistent performance across demanding applications.
We deliver the performance that corrosive environments and high-temperature applications demand. Every nickel component is etched to exact tolerances, remains stress-free, and preserves the material’s properties.
We etch nickel from 0.03 mm to 1.0 mm, enabling ultra-thin EMI/RFI shields, precision filter meshes, and heat-resistant components for extreme environments.
We process pure nickel (Nickel 200/201, 270) and specialized alloys including Inconel, Monel, Hastelloy, Invar, and Kovar.
We maintain nickel's magnetic properties during etching, critical for electromagnetic shielding applications where material integrity directly impacts performance.
Our process preserves nickel's thermal characteristics for components operating up to 1455°C, including heat exchangers, fuel cell plates, and aerospace applications.
With tolerances to ±0.025 mm, we produce fine channels, micro-grids, intricate perforations, and detailed patterns.
Our process delivers high-volume production of nickel components with exceptional consistency.

We have an exact and standardized procedure to guarantee the utmost quality output of each project:
Nickel naturally forms a protective oxide layer, so etched components maintain durability in harsh environments without additional coatings.
Nickel etching produces smooth, precise edges while maintaining the metal’s inherent hardness and surface quality
Even ultra-thin sheets (down to 0.03 mm) remain structurally strong and dimensionally stable, unlike many other metals.
Nickel’s low thermal expansion (especially in alloys like Invar) ensures etched components hold their shape in extreme temperature cycles.
With our controlled, automated process, we transform your designs into precise components:
Choose a suitable material from our inventory of pure nickel and specialized alloys.
Any surface impurities or contaminants are removed from the material to ensure uniform etching across the entire substrate.
A light-sensitive coating is applied to both sides of the nickel sheet.
Your design is transformed onto the photoresist using UV light.
Then the material is immersed in etchant solutions that selectively remove exposed nickel areas.
Photoresist coating is removed, and dimensions are verified through CMM inspection.
By collaborating with TMNetch, you receive guidance from prototype design through final inspection, ensuring a seamless process:
Our chemical etching process avoids mechanical stress, which ensures that nickel’s properties and structural integrity are not compromised.
We supply nickel components to manufacturers across aerospace, defense, electronics, and industrial sectors worldwide.
With five automated etching lines operating continuously, we can deliver up to 1,800 m² per day with consistent results.
We maintain dimensional tolerances up to ±0.025 mm for components designed to operate at temperatures as high as 1,455°C.
