Laser Micro-Perforated Plates – Largest Opening Rates for Precision Filtering Solutions

Our laser micro-perforated plates utilize high-precision laser processing to create apertures as small as 10 microns (0.01 mm) on metal sheets or tubes, effectively handling tough materials without tool wear.

Our laser-cut micro-perforated plates use advanced high-performance laser cutting/drilling equipment with minimal thermal deformation, fast processing speed, high efficiency, small straight-edge cutting, smooth cutting surface, no mechanical deformation, and large depth-to-diameter ratio and depth-to-width.

This allows for laser micro perforation in thicker plates, ultra-high opening rates, and precise mesh holes, making it an indispensable solution in high-end manufacturing.

We also offer comprehensive processing services, including electrolytic polishing, vacuum cleaning, rolling, forming, and welding to meet diverse industry needs.

Advantages
  • High-precision micro-hole non-contact processing
  • No mechanical stress
  • Can process special-shaped holes
  • Suitable for thick plate processing holes much smaller than the thickness.
  • High flexibility.
  • Low cost in large batches quantity.
  • High processing efficiency.
  • Good hole consistency.
Ultra-fine hole processing complex graphics one-step molding.
Shortcomings
  • High equipment investment Low efficiency of deep holes (hole depth > 5 mm)
  • Laser thermal impact (nitrogen protection is required to prevent oxidation when processing stainless steel)
  • The hole wall roughness is high (Ra 3.2–6.3 μm) The drill bit is easy to wear and the thin plate is easy to deform.
  • Drilling and chip removal: Deep hole processing requires internal cooling drill (to avoid chip blockage)
  • High mold cost when quantity is small.
  • The aperture is not adjustable and the die is worn out.
  • The hole has errors (control method: regular inspection of punch clearance, burr prevention and tolerance reduction).
  • Material thickness restrictions.
  • Only suitable for thin materials (≤ 0.5 mm)
  • Chemical waste liquid treatment is difficult (waste liquid neutralization treatment equipment is required)
  • Limited material types.
Typical application Air film holes of aviation turbine blades, micro vias for electronic devices Hydraulic pulper screens, rotary grinding screens for paper making, sugar making, fish meal industry Screening, filtering strainers, architectural decoration panels IC lead frame diffraction holes for optical devices, electronic component
Selection suggestions High-precision micro-holes: laser or etching is preferred (aperture < 0.3 mm) Thick plate processing (> 5 mm): Select drill bit to drill holes Standardized holes in large quantities: CNC punching machines Complex graphics/Ultra-thin materials: chemical etching (with photolithography mask)
