Roll-to-Roll Chemical Etching: High-Speed Precision for Flexible Metal Components
Introduction
At Xinhsen Technology, we specialize in roll-to-roll (R2R) chemical etching, a high-efficiency manufacturing process ideal for producing flexible, thin-metal components with ultra-fine features. This method is perfect for industries requiring high-volume, consistent precision, such as electronics, medical devices, and automotive applications.
Why Choose Roll-to-Roll Etching?
High-Speed, Continuous Production
Unlike sheet-fed etching, R2R processing enables uninterrupted production, reducing handling time and costs.
Ideal for large orders (e.g., EMI shielding foils, flexible circuits, and mesh filters).
Exceptional Precision for Thin Materials
Achieve micro-features down to 0.03mm holes and 0.015mm line widths on thin metals (0.02mm–0.5mm).
Uniformity within ±0.03mm across long strips.
Material Versatility
Process stainless steel, copper, brass, and nickel alloys in coil form.
Compatible with post-etch treatments (plating, laminating).
Cost-Effective for Bulk Orders
Lower per-unit cost vs. laser cutting or stamping.
No hard tooling required—fast prototyping & scaling.
Key Applications of R2R Etching
Flexible Circuits & EMI Shielding: Thin, conductive patterns for wearables and PCBs.
Medical Meshes: Precision filters and surgical tool components.
Automotive Sensors: Durable, fine-pitch conductive grids.
Consumer Electronics: Speaker grilles, touchscreen layers, and antenna components.
