Etchform provides customized solutions for metal precision parts for high-tech applications by means of etching & electroforming. Two versatile techniques, combining flexibility, cost efficiency and high quality. As part of the etching division of the Wickeder Group, together with our sister companies HP Etch in Sweden and Micrometal in Germany, we are globally able to offer complete solutions for one-off to mass production, for both discrete parts and reel to reel in a wide range of materials such as copper- and stainless steel alloys, molybdenum, silver and titanium. Our customers are found in all high-tech industries such as aerospace, automotive, defense, electronics, engineering, imaging, medical, piezo and semiconductors. Some typical applications are apertures, battery grids, contact springs, EMI/RFI shielding, deposition masks, encoder discs, filters & meshes, implants, shadow masks, shims, washers, etc. Our technologies offer the following specific benefits for your metal precision parts: • An extensive choice of materials, also for metals on plastic carriers. • No change in material properties. • No additional internal material stress or warping. Hardness and brittleness remain intact. • Absolutely burr-free products. • Both the contour and the relief can be produced in the same process • 2.5 D structures are also possible. • Quick start and flexible in the event of changes. • Limited tooling costs. • Product complexity has virtually no effect on the production costs.
