Potomac Adds Micro-Welding System To Its Contract Manufacturing Unit

Potomac Photonics is pleased to announce that it has added a new micro-welding system for both prototyping and production applications. This system, which is capable of welding flat and 3D structures is optimized for many different types of metals including stainless steel and nitinol. Potomac specializes in precision machining of a variety of materials (polymers, metals, glass, etc.). Applications include micro hole drilling, laser marking, part excision and cutting. Typical feature sizes range between 1 and 300 um. Potomac’s rapid turn manufacturing methodologies are readily extendable to high volume production emphasizing improved efficiency and economy. Once product is introduced to the market, Potomac offers its customers an aggressive cost reduction schedule to meet production ramp-up needs. Lead-Times as fast as 24-48 hours can be realized for certain applications. Once volumes reach a high level, Potomac can dedicate systems and resources for production manufacturing. Potomac Photonics is ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 13485 certified. All work is carefully inspected and certificates of conformance are included with all finished products.
