5 Factors that Lead to Successful Deburring
In this quick video lesson, we break down the 5 factors that impact most deburring applications. When you’re done, you’ll know how to deburr…better!
Artifact Restoration & Fossil Preparation with MicroBlasting
In the spirit of back-to-school season, let’s dive into a fun academic subject: restoring artifacts and cleaning fossils! These are delicate and risky tasks, to say the least. MicroBlasting provides the pinpoint precision and gentle abrasion needed to remove the matrix surrounding a precious remnant of the past. Let’s look at two examples: the restoration of the H.L. Hunley submarine and fossil preparation at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles.
Control Etch Rates on PZT for MEMS Fabrication
Researchers at the University of Maryland determined that MicroBlasting made the process of etching PZT controllable, mass-producible, and efficient. Combining Comco technology and dry film photoresist masking, they were able to produce channels to a specified depth. This paper published in the Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering compares other processes and provides a detailed outcome.
The Comco Modulator: Our Patented Technology Explained
The modulator separates Comco from the pack. It turns a Comco micro-precision sandblaster from a dirt spitter into a precise, consistent, and controllable tool. Watch this quick explainer and learn more.
