The system is able to produce micro structures in different kinds of materials like metals, ceramics, composite materials, etc.
The system is able to produce micro structures in different kinds of materials like metals, ceramics, composite materials, etc.
It can produce features down to ~10µm size over a large area. It can scan over an area of up to ~15x15cm without moving the sample. By moving the sample on the large x-y-stage this area can be extended by stitching.

== Process information [[Image:section under construction.jpg|70px]] ==
The laser can use Autocad DXF files for the pattern design. To create these files we recommend to use Clewin 5. See more info [[Specific_Process_Knowledge/Pattern_Design| here]].
 
==Process Examples==
A process example for cutting silicon grooves can be found [[/Silicon cutting and milling| <b>here</b>]].
