The chemical etching works under controlled chemical reactions to remove metal in exact patterns. Generally, the engineers use etching to remove metal parts. They also employ this process to produce intricate designs without mechanical stress, heat distortion, or burr formation. However, the chemical etching applications are not limited to making designs in metal surfaces. The […]

Oxide layer resistance, rapid chemical reaction, and alloy variability are challenges metallurgists face during aluminum etching. When the product development engineers do the unplanned aluminum etching, the process becomes uncontrolled. In the end, the aluminum pattern becomes inconsistent and causes dimensional errors. So, it’s compulsory for you to understand the etch depth before starting any

Many manufacturers often struggle to cut or shape metal parts with traditional metal fabrication methods. These methods usually cause high tooling costs, require long times, and end with burrs or metal distortions. This leads to headaches for precision-driven industries like aerospace, medical, and electronics. Their production slows down and limits the design complexity inside the

You often face the problem of using a traditional machine to shape the metal. Sometimes your material part can warp from heat and break easily. Furthermore, the traditional methods need expensive tools or create burrs that need cleanup. These issues slow your production and raise costs. The photochemical machining (PCM) is designed to tackle all

Engineers and procurement face tight deadlines, complex part geometries, and no room for error. They use traditional methods to shape the material. Sometimes, these old methods change the whole geometry of materials. The CNC is too slow, stamping needs costly dies, and laser cutting can bury your thin materials. However, the chemical etching solves those
