Fabrication methods for the manufacture of sapphire microparts

There is an increasing demand for microparts to be fabricated from an extremely hard-wearing, durable material such as sapphire but machining it to demanding specifications and tolerances poses considerable challenges. This paper describes experimental results obtained from laser machining and diamo...

description There is an increasing demand for microparts to be fabricated from an extremely hard-wearing, durable material such as sapphire but machining it to demanding specifications and tolerances poses considerable challenges. This paper describes experimental results obtained from laser machining and diamond machining of sapphire and concludes that, for optimum machining, a combination of these two techniques is required.
