Photochemical etching is,
essentially a "2D" process. We
work with flat panels of thin gauge metals
to produce parts from the very simple to
very complex.
We receive many inquiries from people who
are looking for a chemical etching process
that can be used on three-dimensional parts.
If the requirement is to mark a surface
with some form of identification or graphics,
laser engraving may be an effective solution.
We are happy to recommend Northeast
Laser located in Monroe, CT. You can
ask for Jim Corrigan.
In other cases, the need is to remove areas
of metal or to chemically treat an entire
surface prior to another operation. This
process is usually called chemical milling.
