Chapter Sixteen

Micro-Machining

Abstract

This chapter provides comprehensive knowledge regarding the fabrication of micro-products and element of micro-electromechanical systems using various techniques and processes. Both well-established techniques such as micro-machining and new trends in improving micro-processes taking into account EDM, laser, FIB, LIGA and DRIE processes are overviewed. The background of micro-machining processes, including typical machining operations such as turning, milling and drilling and different construction materials, is outlined. Moreover, a special focus was made on new constructions, control systems and effective applications of micro-machining techniques. In addition, the focus was directed towards the micro-tools ...
