Precision Assembly Expertise
We assemble components into complex structures to exacting dimensional tolerances. Parts are assembled under an optical gaging microscope typically to the micron scale of precision. Assembly and metrology are performed in a clean environment which includes class 1000 and 10,000 clean areas. Specially designed equipment and fixturing is used for automated repetitive assembly of multiple copies of the same structure, each requiring precise alignment of components, application of controlled aliquots of bonding agents, application of controlled bonding forces, etc.
Equipment, tolerances, and materials
