Brief: In this video, we take a focused look at the specifications and what they mean in practice for etched beauty needles and metal pins. You will see how the chemical etching process enables the creation of high-precision, burr-free components with complex geometries, ideal for the demanding beauty industry. We'll demonstrate the material versatility and cost-effective tooling that makes this manufacturing method a superior choice.
Related Product Features:
  • Etched beauty needles feature low mold costs and high precision manufacturing.
  • The process enables metal half-cutting and the creation of products with complex shapes.
  • Finished parts are completely burr-free, stress-free, and free from pressure points and deformation.
  • Virtually all metals can be etched, with no restrictions on pattern designs.
  • Chemical etching can manufacture metal parts that cannot be completed by various mechanical processing.
  • The process achieves impressive tolerances from ±0.025mm and works with material thicknesses from 0.0127mm to 1.60mm.
  • It preserves material integrity by inducing minimal stress and leaves no rough edges, often eliminating the need for finishing.
  • The method is scalable for both prototyping and large-scale production without expensive tooling changes.
Faqs:
  • What are the key advantages of using chemical etching for beauty needles?
    Chemical etching offers high precision, the ability to create complex geometries without burrs or stress, material versatility, and cost-effective tooling. It is ideal for producing intricate, high-quality metal parts for the beauty industry.
  • What materials and thicknesses can be used in the photo etching process?
    The process is compatible with almost all metals, including stainless steel, copper, brass, and nickel alloys. It can handle a wide range of thicknesses, from 0.0127mm up to 1.60mm.
  • How does chemical etching ensure parts are burr-free and stress-free?
    Since chemical etching does not use mechanical force or heat, the metal's properties remain unchanged. This results in parts that are completely burr-free and stress-free, with no rough edges, often eliminating the need for additional finishing.
  • Is chemical etching suitable for both prototyping and large-scale production?
    Yes, the chemical etching process is highly scalable. It is cost-effective for both small-scale prototyping and large-scale production runs without significant alterations in setup or tooling.
