Potomac, founded in 1982, began as the inventor/patent holder and manufacturer of the waveguide Excimer laser. This revolutionary new tool positioned Potomac as an innovator and ultimately as a leader in microfabrication of miniaturized products. Today, clients come to Potomac for solutions that no one else can accomplish in product development. Whether your needs center around ultra high precision process development or cost effective component microfabrication, Potomac has a contract manufacturing solution for you.

Vision:
Potomac recognized the potential of commercial microfabrication in 1997 so we established our MicroFabrication Solutions (MFS) unit to provide competitive advantages through technological advancements and production economies of scale for our Partners. This visionary thinking has progressed with our First to Market (F2M) product development program. As a leader in microfabrication technology, Potomac, in 2002, developed a deposition capability for Mesoscale (1-100 microns) electronics (culmination of the DARPA MICE Program). Today, Potomac is the first to offer precision direct write deposition in addition to state-of-the-art micromachining.

Focus:
Potomac recognizes the need for long-term strategic Partnerships. We have focused upon relationships where there is a product development-production manufacturing progression which adds value to our Partner's market solutions. This has required us to address the challenges of new materials, even finer feature sizes and tolerances, and in some cases, to assume assembly and supply-chain responsibility. We know we can improve your competitive edge.
