Precision Micromachining Services
CNC Miniature and Micromachining Services Achieving the Impossible
OPTEC provides miniature and micromachining CNC services using WireCut 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. Put
simply- if you have complex components with high accuracy demands requiring ultra precision
micromachining, you want OPTEC on the job. Our skilled and experienced CNC machinists are
dedicated to providing the highest quality services while exceeding industry standards and
capabilities. We take pride in each and every component we machine; the more complex the better.
Our manufacturing engineers welcome the opportunity to discuss the manufacturability of your
design ideas.
OPTEC has micro machined a multitude of complex components, including (but not limited to):
Miniature gears for the ophthalmic industry
Sonic nozzles with precision venturies for flow measurement
Miniature components for nuclear armament timing devices
Components for respiration monitoring equipment
Electron microscope accessories
Fiber optic components
Optical switch components such as collimators (Photonics Industry)
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. If the device is not 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.
OPTEC is ahead of the industry trend, offering ultra-precision micromachining services for the last
six decades.
Micro Cut Components for Every Industry
Numerous industries are eagerly following the trend of utilizing miniature parts in their product
applications - including electronic tooling, medical parts, component energy-driven motors, fluidic
circuits, and particle filters just to name a few. The extreme attention to detail, dedication to
precision and high level of expertise garnered in our employees is what sets OPTEC apart from other
machine shops, making our reputable services highly sought after across a multitude of industries,
including:
Aircraft
Aerospace
Defense
Energy
Fiber Optics
Food Manufacturing
Medical
Tools & Dies
Businesses choosing OPTEC as their Micromachining Shop accomplish the impossible through our
latest technology in CNC micro machining services, Photolithography, and Micro/Meso-Mechanical
Manufacturing.
As technological advancements continue across the globe, the demand for micro precision
components grows right alongside it. Not all CNC Machining Companies have the equipment,
experience, or expertise to get the job done right. Don’t waste your time and money trying out
several machine shops and getting the same results. Choose OPTEC for precision machined
components with measurable results and repeatable accuracy.
Micromachining Using WireCut EDM Cutting
We offer EDM Micro Machining using state of the art WireCut EDM Machines. Our WireCut EDM
is capable of .001” diameter cutting wire, offering extremely fine EDM Micro Machining options. In
order to achieve true micro machining with EDM, our EDM Machines have 0.1 micron resolution
glass scales.
Problem Parts? Impossible Components? In a Hurry? We are happy to help!
Micro Milling Through 5 Axis Technology
While most Machine Shops offer 3 or 4 axis milling services, OPTEC 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. OPTEC ensures all elements of our micromachining
process are carefully calculated and executed for incredible product results.
