UKP Micro Laser Cutting

We deliver your µm-precise miniaturised components

Laser Microcutting with the Ultra Short Pulse Laser

Miniaturized components are gaining importance in many industries. Meet the trend with the help of our service: With laser micro cutting on a contract basis, we manufacture your finest shapes and geometries, in foils and sheets from 10 to 500 µm thick. Thanks to the ultra-short laser pulses, the material sublimates directly, and there is no heat-affected zone (HAZ) at the cut edges.

Laser microcutting: These added values await you at HAILTEC

Good reasons for laser-microcut components

Precision

Micrometre-fine ridges, smallest spot diameters and cuts that are repeatable and true to geometry - these are enormous advantages of laser micro cutting.

For maximum precision, we combine the cold femtosecond laser with cutting gas. In this way, we achieve the finest ridges and burr-free, almost right-angled cut edges with surface qualities down to Ra 0.2 µm for you. 

Optical measuring systems measure and monitor the quality of your micro components with an accuracy of +/-1 µm.

Economic efficiency

As a contract manufacturer for laser micromachining, we cut your parts with µm-accurate fits and post-processing-free edges. This is made possible by special ultra-short pulse laser technology. When the tolerance increases then the laser fine cutting is the technology of choice.

The laser cut produced with this method is comparable in quality to wire erosion. The advantage of UKP laser microcutting: the laser is significantly more economical than wire erosion, and that from batch size 1.

Material diversity

Since the ultrashort pulse laser cuts without thermal influence, you get high-quality and reproducible results - regardless of the material.

Brittle-hard and temperature-sensitive materials as well as composites can also be easily processed with laser microcutting. For you, we cut e.g. Nitinol, titanium, medical stainless steels or copper.

Your job store for laser micro cut components

Together with laser manufacturer TRUMPF and equipment manufacturer DMG MORI, we are advancing ultra-short pulse laser technology. Take advantage of this technological lead as a service.

Whether standard materials or advanced materials: the femtosecond laser is flexible, fast, precise and repeatable.

Frequently asked questions about UKP Laser Microcutting

For which products is microcutting with the UKP laser suitable?

Micro mountain bike next to a two-euro coin:

In UKP micro laser cutting (also called micro laser cutting or laser micro processing), the UKP laser realises miniaturised shapes with micrometre-fine ridges and cuts.

What added value does ultrashort pulse laser technology bring to laser micromachining?

  • Burr-free and µm-accurate

  • Cutting edge roughness up to Ra 0.2 μm

  • Almost right-angled cut edges

What is the difference between laser remote cutting and classic laser cutting?

In contrast to other laser cutting processes such as flame cutting or fusion cutting (see FAQ laser fine cutting), laser remote cutting does not work with a nozzle but with a scanner. The laser beam is moved with the help of a particularly dynamic galvanometer scanner. In combination with the ultra-short pulse laser, we achieve contour speeds of several metres per second.

When is laser remote cutting used?

Laser remote cutting, also called sublimation cutting, is particularly suitable for complex geometries and contours. There is hardly any burr formation at the edges and the roughness depth is low.

For which materials is laser remote cutting suitable?

With the sublimation or laser remote process, we cut an enormously wide range of materials for you. Due to the high cutting speed, the heat affected zone (HAZ) is very small. Therefore, even brittle-hard materials such as carbon can be cut very well.
