A one day networking event organsied by the EPSRC Centre in Ultra Precision, hosted by the Institute for Manufacturing, University of Cambridge.
The laser assisted focused ion beam (laser FIB) platform has been developed by the EPSRC Centre in Ultra Precision to enable ultra precision featuring in the 10’s of nanometre range, over relatively large substrates, over the 10’s of millimetre scales. This will enable new economies of scale for products that currently have struggled to progress beyond academia or small scale manufacturing. Additionally it will enable new products to be developed that current production technology is unable to manufacture.
This one day networking event organaised by the EPSRC Cenrtre in Ultra Precision and hosted by the Institute for Manufacturing, University of Cambridge, will examine the existing industrial and medical applications this new platform will address for both manufacturing scale-up and look to new innovations that will now be possible utilising the unique hybrid processing machine.
This event should appeal to industrialists who are struggling to realise their product aspirations due to exisiting machine technology limitations and those looking for new product application ideas that might have seemed impossible to realise cost effectively only 12 months ago.
