E-FAB products are produced for a wide variety of industries, companies, and applications. See below for the list of products.
E-FAB products are manufactured utilizing the photo chemical machining process (PCM) and is also known in the industry as photo etching, chemical milling, chemical blanking, and number of other technical terms. PCM is used in the mass production and prototyping of parts from hundreds, thousands, or even millions of metal parts at a very reasonable pricing structure when compared to other forms of manufacturing for thin metal parts fabrication.
Chemical machined thin metal parts are generally made flat and produced from thin material stock (.060 inch thick or less) of various metals and alloy types. After the chemical etching or milling processes are completed, parts can be bent and formed into various geometric shapes. Bend lines can also be etched into the thin metal parts at the chemical etching stage of production, thus producing properly formed corners and angles in the final bent metal parts. Metal tabs, clips, edge connectors, or other features can also be etched into the metal part for subsequent parts assembly or attachment to PCBs or other hardware assemblies.
This is a sampling of the E-FAB photochemical milling, etching, and blanking parts manufactured to customers’ specifications. There have also been numerous other OEM designed widgets and gadgets not listed here that E-FAB has helped design and manufacture for our customers’ special needs.
