micrometal GmbH: We are a full-service provider for precision metal parts. Whether etching, laser cutting, or electroforming, we utilize sophisticated technologies for the products of tomorrow.
Where micrometers make the difference
Micrometalmicrometal GmbH is the specialist for high-precision photochemical etching technology – a key technology used to manufacture the finest metal parts with exceptional accuracy. At its Müllheim site, micrometal develops and produces etched metal components in the micrometer range, characterized by the highest dimensional accuracy, burr-free cut edges, and reproducible quality.
Within our Micro Component Group, we also offer other manufacturing processes such as laser cutting and electroforming for highly precise shapes and structures.
Our processes create structures that conventional manufacturing methods cannot achieve and are ideal for applications where precision, miniaturization, and material integrity are critical. Whether stainless steel, copper, nickel, or special alloys – micrometal masters the etching of complex geometries as well as high-volume series production.
As part of the Wickeder Group, micrometal combines technological excellence with global material expertise – delivering solutions that set benchmarks for precision in metal.
Finest structures and highest precision
Micrometal ProcessingOur strength is evident where others reach their limits: with complex metal components, tightest tolerances, finest structures, and demanding production volumes. With the combined expertise of our group, we reliably support you through the entire development and manufacturing process – from the first prototype to stable series production. We always rely on the technology that best suits your application.
Discover a world where precision is redefined: hundredths of a millimeter, ultra-thin metal sheets, delicate contours, and highly complex geometries – manufactured with the highest accuracy, maximum repeatability, and uncompromising quality.
Your benefits at a glance
Unique accuracy
This means less disruption in further processing and ultimately in the final product, ensuring the required production and product safety.
Low tooling costs
You make a one-time investment in a cost-effective glass tool that is absolutely wear-free.
From small to large volumes
You benefit from cost-effective samples under series production conditions. You benefit from the volume and cost efficiencies of a system designed for mass production.
Design freedom
You benefit from almost limitless design freedom, even in the third dimension. Diverse, fine structures and complex geometries without additional costs.
Burr-free
The production of burr-free parts drastically reduces post-processing and ensures the integrity and safety of the final consumer parts.
Material variety
You benefit from a wide range of etchable metals and alloys. Most common: etching of stainless steel
Clean & stress-free
No further cleaning processes are necessary. This is reflected in the cost-effective part price. The chemical and physical properties of the material remain unchanged.
Micro Components
Micro metal processing is of interest for high-tech products in many technological industries because it enables high-precision components in the smallest spaces. Wherever miniaturization, efficiency, and reliability are critical, it becomes an important innovation factor – with finest structures, tight tolerances, and reproducible quality even with demanding materials.
