Experts in Polymer Laser Processing
At Resonetics, we use state-of-the-art laser systems equipped with excimer lasers and ultra-short pulse lasers that provide exceptional control over beam intensity, duration, and heat output. This ensures the highest quality of work with minimal thermal damage to the materials.
- Our specialties include but not limited to:
- Ablation depth control for blank (not through) vias or other features
- Selective material removal (remove top layers of material without damage underneath materials)
- 3D feature processing
- Multilumen processing with dynamic OD control
- Reel-to-reel wire coating stripping
- Profile control micro-via array drilling
Advantages of Polymer Laser Processing
- Precision and Accuracy: Laser ablation allows for extremely precise cuts with clean edges, reducing the need for post-processing.
- Versatility: This technique can be used on a variety of polymers, including sensitive and flexible materials.
- Non-contact Process: Since the laser does not physically touch the material, there is no mechanical wear and tear, resulting in better product longevity.
- Customization: Laser parameters can be easily adjusted to meet specific requirements, allowing for high customization of the ablation process.
