Why Femtosecond Laser Processing for Micro Tube Cutting?

Nanotech Precision has specialized equipment for producing high precision micro components from hypo tube material. The Femtosecond Laser (Femto Laser) tube cutter is a high precision machine tool with micron accuracy, enabling extreme precision and high cut speeds. Femtosecond lasers can provide micro hole drilling and fine cutting without any heat affected zone, making these tube cutters an ideal solution for micro tube processing. The machine features 3-axis control of the laser plus C-axis control, enabling chamfering in addition to allowing extreme precision cutting.

Tube Cutting Micro Feature Applications

Many medical devices and instruments contain components produced from tubing or round material. Marker bands from platinum or platinum iridium, stents from nitinol, or high flex interlocked stainless steel tubing are all possibilities with the high-volume micro machining solutions provided by Nanotech Precision. The femto tube cutting laser will provide a cut kerf as small as 18 microns, burr-free and without any heat affected zone. The femtosecond tube cutting laser has 3-axis capabilities, enabling flexibility such as chamfers and additional features on marker bands, stents, cannulas, and other micro components. This equipment also features a high-accuracy C-axis for expert repeatability on high volume components.

Our femtosecond tube cutter with 3-axis control can cut and chamfer rings, marker bands, loops, etc. From stents to marker bands, needles to cannulas, surgical instruments such as probes, rings, forceps, gauges, hooks, loops, and beyond, Nanotech Precision can be your partner for your product development and high-volume manufacturing needs. Nanotech Precision can provide components from tubing or round material down to Ø0.25mm (Ø.010”). We welcome your micro laser tube cutting inquiries – challenge us!

Value-Add Laser Service

In addition to micro femtosecond laser tube cutting, Nanotech Precision also has 3 and 5-axis femto lasers for laser hole drilling as well as foil and sheet cutting. Nanotech Precision has capabilities for adding micro features to Swiss-machined medical components using micro laser, micro EDM, or micro wire EDM capabilities. This is a significant differentiator in the Swiss medical machining realm. Micro holes down to .0015 diameter can be added using one or a combination of these capabilities. In addition, precision features such as micro holes, narrow slots, micro chamfers, etc. can be added with a high degree of repeatability, taking Swiss medical machining to another level.
