World Star is backed by our ultra-precision micromachining techniques as well as highly specialized machines in this area, providing top support for global customers to create intricate micro components that exactly fit their requirements.

With the development of telecommunications, the Internet, and computer capabilities, the demand for micromachining services is becoming increasingly prevalent in an array of industries worldwide, especially in the technology area. If devices aren't shrinking in size, so are the parts that make them work for greater efficiency and better performance.

Nowadays, micro components can be seen and have been already applied in every aspect of our life, like miniature machined parts for the latest mobile phones, computers, music devices, etc. There is an inevitable tendency for manufacturing companies to enhance their capabilities in precision micromachining to catch up with the advancements of modern technology most notably in the field of satellite, medical, and electronics industries.

What Is Micromachining?

Micromachining was as a technology developed in the late 1990s to meet the growing demand for smaller, more complex parts in the semiconductor and medical industries. To this end, precision engineers began to develop techniques for machining tinier parts with smaller tools, mainly through trials and errors. Machinists at World Star have been dedicated to this field for a long time and make a difference in the R&D of certain core technologies with their highly professional micromachining experience.

Advantages of Precision Micromachining

Micromachining is ideal for ultra-precision components, and World Star has access to deliver what you just want with our precision CNC micromachining services. Our micromachining specialists are crucial in various industries including: Optical, Medical, Aerospace, Tool & Die, Pharmaceutical, and more.

Repeatability

The highly specialized machines and tools used in the micromachining process enable the fabrication of precision components tiny and intricate enough along with tight tolerances in a repeatable production run.

Efficiency

Micromachining provides a method of machining smaller parts in a single operation, so milling and turning can be completed on the same machine, helping speed up turnaround and enable more efficient machining of parts.

Versatility

Prototypes and parts requiring micro features can depend on micromachining techniques to realize their desired functions, fulfilling a multitude of applications.

Accuracy

Micromachining takes machines with high spindle speeds or Swiss-type lathes to realize cleaner cuts to create parts with tighter tolerances and more precise dimensions used most frequently in specialized applications like the medical and semiconductor industries.

Competitiveness

Implementing micromachining in your precision engineering practice provides you with more diversified and precision parts to undertake a wider range of bids.

EDM Micromachining

Sink/Plunge EDM machines equipped in our machine shop are custom-designed to produce the finest plunge patterns.

Sink/Plunge EDM for Micro Precision Machining

Gears or other micron-scale parts with small and unusual shapes demanding detailed intricacy require a different type of micro-precision equipment: Sink/Plunge EDM. The complex geometries are formed through erosion, caused by sparks between the part being machined and the customized electrodes of the sinker EDM.

Common Sinker EDM machined materials we work with include:

Aluminum
Brass
Stainless steel
Titanium
Copper

5-Axis Milling for Micro Precision Machining

World Star creates more possibilities with our 5-axis machining technology while most machine shops still provide their clients with 3 or 4-axis milling services. Our precision 5-axis milling centers are crafted by CNC machinery artisans in Germany and Switzerland, which have already exclusively calibrated to reach the highest precision effects.

To further enhance the performance of our milling equipment, our facilities are temperature and dust controlled. We have a full awareness of assurance of consistent quality and accuracy on precision components determined by complete control over all machining factors. Thus, we carefully calculate and execute all elements, like the effects of vibration of micro-drilling and handling of parts, and fluids in micro-cutting that may occur in the micromachining process, to build a defect-free micromachining environment for the best-finished results.
