Compact laser system.


The MicroLine UV 3000 is a compact laser system designed to cut precise openings in polyimide Pronounced "poly-ih-mid." A type of plastic (a synthetic polymeric resin) originally developed by DuPont that is very durable, easy to machine and can handle very high temperatures. Polyimide is also highly insulative and does not contaminate its surroundings (does not outgas).  coverlayer foils and to cut flex circuits See flexible circuit. . It contains a new high-speed linear drive for flexible circuits, reportedly featuring greater positioning accuracy, higher speed and faster acceleration resulting in reduced processing times. It is said to encompass tools with the ability to perform precision cutting, routing, skiving skive
