Achieving metal photo-etching processing on extremely difficult curved surfaces and 3D shapes. Etching on rod shapes and curved surfaces, as well as half-etching, is possible.
Achieving metal photo-etching processing on extremely difficult curved surfaces and 3D shapes. Etching and half-etching are possible on rod shapes and curved surfaces. Processing examples: - Full circumference etching on round rods - Full circumference etching on the inside of cylinders - Etching on material end faces ---------------------------------------- What is metal etching processing... It is a technology that processes metal sheets into arbitrary shapes through the photo-plate making process and the dissolving action of etching solutions. There are no burrs or work hardening like in press processing, and fine patterns at the micron level are possible. Etching is suitable for the manufacturing of precision parts. Advantages of etching processing: - High-precision processing without burrs, distortion, or work hardening - No need for expensive jigs like those used in press processing, resulting in low initial costs - Can be manufactured in a short lead time, making it ideal for prototypes - Capable of processing multiple items simultaneously, suitable for mass production Product examples: Shims / Apertures / Filters / Oil Strainers / Metal Masks / Optical Masks / Encoder Scales [Metal materials]: Stainless steel (SUS), Copper (Cu), Iron (Fe), Nickel (Ni), Nichrome (NCH), and others.

Meltec Co., Ltd. manufactures high value-added thin plate precision parts using photo-etching and composite processing. Photo-etching involves precision etching using unique materials from SUS metals, and it accommodates a wide range of technologies from special materials like molybdenum to curved shapes. Composite processing for etching includes consistent handling of plating, blackening treatment, injection molding, bending processing, spot welding, and more. We also manufacture various scales for encoders on a made-to-order basis. Our headquarters factory is located in Nagareyama City, Chiba Prefecture, and we have overseas factories in China, the Philippines, and Thailand.
