etching is simply a manufacturing method for short volume
requirements, by developing a facility for high volume production.
Located close to Precision Micro’s new Birmingham production plant,
the facility has been designed for flexibility with an ability to meet all
quantity requirements. Benefits of the high volume machines include
their ability to accommodate large sheet sizes, churning components
out by the million, with certain machines even being dedicated to the
production of a single specific part.
