SmalTec Launches Advanced Micro-EDM & Nano-Grinding Equipment at Japan Exhibition in November: MICROMACHINE 2006.NAPERVILLE, Ill. -- SmalTec International, LLC (Logical Link Control) See "LANs" under data link protocol. LLC - Logical Link Control ("SmalTec"), a microtechnology Microtechnology is technology with features near one micrometre (one millionth of a metre, or 10-6 metre, or 1μm). In the 1960s, scientists learned that by arraying large numbers of microscopic transistors on a single chip, microelectronic circuits could be solutions provider, announced it will launch and showcase its most advanced Micro-EDM / Nano-Grinding Equipment at the MICROMACHINE 2006 exhibition in Tokyo, Japan, this November. This year's 17th International Tradeshow for Micro/MEMS & Nano Technologies will provide a preview of what SmalTec has to offer to the micro- and nanotechnology industries. "By design, SmalTec has been a true pioneer by contributing its engineering talents and resources to the micro- & nanotechnology industries," noted Jerry Mraz, General Manager of SmalTec. "In early 2006 we introduced our M2I2-u Best-In-Class Micro-EDM machine to the Small Technology Industry and at the MICROMACHINE 2006 exhibition in Tokyo we are introducing our newest technological advancement - the most innovative Micro-EDM / Nano-Grinding Machine on the market, the M2I7-n." SmalTec's M2I7-n Micro-EDM / Nano-Grinding machine is capable of next generation, ultra-precise results, such as perfect round holes to within 0.20 micron micron: see micrometer. One micrometer, which is one millionth of a meter or approximately 1/25,000 of an inch. The tiny elements that make up a transistor on a chip are measured in micrometers and nanometers. See process technology. diameter and positional tolerance, plus complex micro patterns to true 3-D contoured shapes are achievable. Grinding grinding, process by which surface material is removed from an object, usually metal, by the abrasive action of a rotating wheel or a moving belt that contains abrasive grains. results produce a mirror finish surface roughness of sub- 5 nanometer One billionth of a meter. Nanometers are used to measure the wavelengths of light. See angstrom and metric system. Rmax. The M2I7-n's positional range of X, Y, and Z is 50 millimeters per axis, its step resolution is 10 nanometer, and its positional repeatability is 170 nanometers. "Mechanical and electrical functions are getting more and more concentrated in a great part of industrial products," explained Dr. T. Masuzawa, Emeritus e·mer·i·tus adj. Retired but retaining an honorary title corresponding to that held immediately before retirement: a professor emeritus. n. pl. Professor of the University of Tokyo “Todai” redirects here.
