Various chemicals are used as opening solutions to dissolve the mold and open it. Additionally, it is possible to remove passivation films and multilayer wiring. FIB processing is also available through partner companies.

Aluminum processing technology etching (textured finishing of aluminum materials)

Further anodizing helps generate a coating and also aids in preventing corrosion.

After anodizing the aluminum material, cover the areas of the surface that you want to preserve with a highly corrosion-resistant protective film (convex parts). When it is immersed in a chemical that dissolves aluminum, the unprotected areas (concave parts) will be dissolved and removed, resulting in a textured surface. Since the concave parts are in the raw state of the aluminum material, further anodizing will be performed to generate a coating and prevent corrosion.

Introduction to Silicon Etching Processing Technology

By selecting the type of crystal orientation, you can choose the type of groove processing!

"Silicon etching" is a processing technology that corrodes the silicon substrate itself to form three-dimensional structures. There are two types of silicon corrosion: one that progresses in a specific direction (anisotropic) and one that progresses in all directions (isotropic). When performing anisotropic etching, single-crystal silicon is used for the substrate, and an etching solution such as KOH aqueous solution is employed. Single-crystal silicon wafers are categorized by crystal direction, and by selecting this, it is possible to choose the type of groove processing. Additionally, isotropic etching can also be performed depending on the type of etching solution used. [Features] - Corrodes the silicon substrate itself to form three-dimensional structures - Allows selection of groove processing types by choosing the type of crystal direction - Isotropic etching is possible depending on the type of etching solution *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

Etching of stainless steel plates

By etching, you can create high-definition unevenness on the stainless steel surface to express designs, patterns, and textures such as design drawings and photographs.

After using screen printing technology or photo plate technology to print and transfer pattern diagrams or images onto stainless steel plates, the areas not masked are dissolved with etching solution to create fine irregularities, expressing designs and textures on the stainless steel plates. When the etched stainless steel is colored with fine colors or Noies, the shadows of the fine irregularities are enhanced, making the etched patterns stand out even more. The etching methods include general printing etching and photo etching, which allows for high-definition expression. *If you provide digital data, we can also create custom designs for etching as per your request. *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

Three-dimensional finishing method for aluminum (etching method)

After anodizing aluminum, cover the parts of the surface that you want to remain as a three-dimensional image with a corrosion-resistant protective film, and then immerse it in a solution that dissolves aluminum. The unprotected unwanted parts will be removed (etching process, see figure), resulting in the desired three-dimensional image. Since the dissolved area reveals the raw aluminum, further anodizing can be applied to this part, and if necessary, it can also be dyed. In this way, three-dimensional images or text can be obtained, and by combining the differences in gloss and matte finishes due to the pre-treatment of the image and the base material, along with dyeing, decorative reliefs and nameplates with rich design can be achieved.
