What is Precision Micromachining
Since the beginning of the digital revolution in the 1950s, many technological advancements have emerged in modern society. Dongguan Ward Precision plays a key role in providing micro-machining services to companies in various professional fields. Micromachining in the traditional sense is the precise milling and manufacturing of very small parts and products. These components can be cut down to a thousandth of a millimeter, helping to make the production of tiny parts more efficient and realistic. Micromachining, also known as micro/meso-scale mechanical manufacturing (M4 process), processes the products one by one to help establish the dimensions consistency between the parts. If you’re looking for predictable and controlled turnaround times and quality finishes, contact Ward Precision today to learn more about how micromachining can help you save time and money.
CNC Miniature and Micromachining Services
Ward Precision provides miniature and micromachining CNC services using Wire EDM, Sink EDM, and 5 Axis Machining Centers. Additionally, we also offer Photolithography and Micro/Meso-Mechanical Manufacturing (layers built up using non-metallic composites) of 3-dimensional components through our affiliate company. Put simply- if you have complex components with high accuracy demands requiring ultra-precision micromachining, Ward Precision is your best option.
Complex Components Micro-machined
Dedicated to produce and deliver high-quality precision parts, fixtures, test instruments and automation system to our world-wide customers in multiple industries.
Measurement of Micro-Machined Components
In addition to conventional gage techniques, we use our 300 power magnification camera inspection system for measurements with a resolution of 0.1 micron and with repeatability of 1 micron (0.0000394”).
This process ensures the accuracy of each component machined meets the exact specifications of the job.
Micromachining – a CNC Trend on the Rise
With the rise in computer capabilities, telecommunications, and the internet, the demand for micromachining services is growing in popularity across the world, the technology industry taking a special interest. The device is shrinking in size, the components making it work are continuously becoming smaller for better performance and higher efficiency. The latest music devices, phones, and computers are only a few examples of machines requiring micro components CNC machined to the highest precision possible. Advancements in the medical, fiber optic, and satellite industries are requiring Micromachining Companies across the world to improve their capabilities in precision. Ward Precision is ahead of the industry trend, offering ultra-precision micromachining services for the last six decades.
Micromachining Using Wire EDM and Sink EDM
We offer EDM Micro Machining using state of the art Wire EDM and Sink EDM Machines. Our Wire EDM is capable of .001” diameter cutting wire, offering extremely fine EDM Micro Machining options. In order to achieve true micromachining with EDM, our EDM Machines have 0.1-micron resolution glass scales. Our Sink/Plunge EDM is also specifically designed for Micro EDM Machining. We are able to produce the finest plunge patterns on our Wire EDM Machines.
Micromachining Using CNC Swiss Lathes
When your company needs the smallest components manufactured with the tightest tolerances, CNC Swiss machining lathes are the way to go. The most precise milling can’t be achieved with just any type of machine – the Tornos SwissNano at Ward Precision has unique cutting and drilling capabilities which are precise to the millimeter. With this technology, we can make a wide variety of components to meet the demand of any industry.
Micro Milling Through 5 Axis Technology
While most Machine Shops in China offer 3 or 4 axis milling services, Ward Precision brings more to the table with advanced 5 axis machining capabilities. Our 5 axis micro milling centers were manufactured by leading German and Swiss CNC machine engineers, and specially calibrated to achieve the highest precision results. To improve the performance of our milling equipment even further, our facility is temperature and dust controlled. We know achieving repeatable accuracy on precision components requires full control of all machining factors. Several elements play a major role in developing a flawless micromachining environment, including the effects of fluids in micro cutting, vibrations from micro drilling, and component handling. Ward Precision ensures all elements of our micromachining process are carefully calculated and executed for incredible product results.
