Micrometric Ltd is a European leader in the use of lasers for the production of fine parts and precision components from fast prototype through to volume production. A customer-focused policy of continuous investment in 2state of the art equipment2 has created a versatile, responsive and high capacity facility.The hands-on management and engineering teams have a strong scientific and engineering base, well qualified to specialise in the technically difficult area of fine part and precision component production. This expertise is applied to considThe company supplies to a wide range of industries. These include micro-electronics, electronics, electrical, automotive, motorsport, aerospace, power generation, power transmission, scientific, instrumentation and medical devices. erable customer advantage when supplying more general commercial work.

Micrometric has a range of Nd: YAG and low power finely tuned CO2 laser machines. They provide the capability for the fine laser machining of smaller, tight tolerance components. These can be from most engineering materials including stainless steel, copper, silver, phosphor bronze, aluminium, brass, nickel, titanium, tantalum, tungsten, tool steel, molybdenum, ceramics, plastics, rubber and composite materials. The process lends itself to prototype, small batch or volume production with little or no tooling or fixtures required. It can give greater flexibility, faster production and lower overall costs when compared to press, fine blanked, chemically machined and conventionally machined parts. The following can be laser machined: very thin sheet materials, hard, brittle and soft materials, very small slots and holes to any shape, high aspect ratio slots and holes in thicker materials and small diameter and thin section tubular parts. We also have a range of high power, fast CO2 laser machines providing a high quality laser profiling service, from fast turnaround prototype and jobbing work through to volume production. This can be in a wide range of flat and tubular ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Thicknesses cut being, for example, up to 3mm in brass and copper, 8mm in aluminium, 10mm in stainless steel and 12mm in mild steel. Flat parts can be any size within an envelope of 1500 x 3000mm. Tubular parts can be up to 3000mm long and 155mm dia fed through a four jaw chuck and up to 330mm dia mounted on the outside of the chuck. Micrometric can scan existing parts, patterns and templates. From this information, approved parts can be laser cut without the need for drawings.

Micrometric provides a laser marking and engraving sub-contract service for a diverse range of technical and decorative applications. This technique produces a high quality permanent mark on the surface of the material. The process is accurately controlled to achieve tight tolerances and good repeatability and incorporates a fine rotary capability. Customers’ artwork can be scanned in-house for production. Among the wide variety of materials that can be marked are: mild steel, stainless steel, tool/hardened steel, aluminium, titanium, ceramics, brass, chrome plating, anodised surfaces, painted surfaces and most plastics. As well as text, lines and graphics, it is also possible to mark bar codes and matrix codes. These codes, like text and numbers, can be incremented automatically giving unique serial numbers for traceability.
