ML-ETCH: Microstructure & Microtexture Etching for Curved Surfaces

In highend fields like semiconductors, optical instruments, and biomedical devices, product innovation is advancing into the microscale. A key technical bottleneck for industrial upgrading is achieving non-damaging, high-efficiency, and high-precision 3D micro-engraving on high-melting-point, high-hardness, and high-value materials. Mono’s ML-ETCH offers the solution.

It integrates self-developed industrial-grade femtosecond laser technology and advanced motion control systems. Maximizing the "non-damaging" processing advantage, it is specifically designed for microstructure forming and precision etching on flat and complex curved surfaces. It breaks through material and shape limitations, turning complex micro-designs into reality and strongly supporting product innovation.
