Vaughan, York Region based Shimifrez Inc, a Canadian leader in fabricating precision photo chemically etched and electroformed of micro metal components, has expanded its manufacturing capabilities and operations to provide micro machining services globally.
Photo chemical machining is also known as photo-etching, photo fabrication or photo chemical milling is a non-traditional machining/fabrication method based on the combination of photo-resist imaging and chemicals. Photo etching eliminates the cost of hard tooling, improves design flexibility, and shortens lead times (within days) while eliminating burring and stress problems.
“We continued our strategy of reinvesting in our micro fabrication services and technologies to ensure that we can lead our clients and our own business toward new horizons of productivity and enhancing growth and value,” says Shimifrez’s President Hassan Nojoumi.
With 30 years of experience Shimifrez specializes in fabricating light gauge metal components. The scope of Shimifrez’s activities in photo chemical etching and electro-forming is far reaching and can include creating critical components for satellites and instrumentation’s to micro meshes/grids, semi-conductor lead frames, ultra micro metal parts, gimbal springs, fluidic channels, reticles, damper shims, wave guides, targets, RFI/EMI/ESD board level shielding, heat sinks, BPP’s for fuel cell applications to consumer products such as speaker grills, ornaments and jewelry. Components can be manufactured in stainless steels, brass, nickel alloys, beryllium copper, phosphorous bronze, kovar, inconel, DCB substrates and aluminum alloys to name a few.
Shimifrez offers a rapid-response service to deliver micro components to several precision industries such as the aerospace/satellite, automotive, telecommunications, micro-electronics and defense sectors. The demand now exists for relatively thin between 0.0005″ (0.01mm) to 0.040″ (1mm), complex design and intricate metal components at an economical price.
