Metal Etching High Precision 0.05mm to 1.0mm Stainless Steel Shims & Gaskets

Metal Etching High Precision 0.05mm to 1.0mm Stainless Steel Shims & Gaskets

Shims&Gasket are generally placed into an empty space to provide support and / or balance, the chemical etching process offers high precision parts, that have a burr free finish and has low cost tooling. Photo chemical etching shims and spacers are made from various grades of steel, traditionally mild steel, carbon steel and stainless steel.

Advantages of Acid Etching Precision Stainless Steel Shims & Gaskets

Manufacturing metal washer shims using the photochemical etching process offers several distinct advantages, such as high precision and accuracy, uniform thickness and complex geometries, material efficiency, design flexibility, high-quality surface finish, smooth surface and no mechanical damage, high production efficiency, batch processing and fast turnaround, cost-effectiveness, no tooling costs and versatility.

Why Chonnse Photo Etching Process?

Photo etching is a very cost-effective alternative of stamping, laser cutting, punching or CNC machining when the thickness 

of metal parts is between 0.02mm to 1.5mm.

                                                                                       • Cost-effective: no expensive molding tool required.

                                                                                        • Fast sampling: sample within 2-3 days, not weeks.

                                                                                        • High precision, micro and complex.

                                                                                        • No additional cost for complexity. 

                                                                                        • Burrs and stress free, no sharp edge.

                                                                                        • Mass production within days, not month.

                                                                                        • Various material options: stainless steel, copper, brass, aluminum, alloys, titanium and so on.

                                                                                        • No effect on material temper or magnetism.
