Precision Etched Metal Mesh China Factory | HighAccuracy Perforated Mesh Suppliers

Our Etched Metal Mesh is a precision-engineered perforated solution manufactured using advanced photochemical or laser etching processes. Designed for industries requiring extreme accuracy, it utilizes high-grade substrates including AISI 304/316 stainless steel, brass, and aluminum with thicknesses ranging from 0.05mm to 3mm. By employing photolithography masking and ISO 9001:2015 compliant acid baths, we achieve intricate patterns with a dimensional accuracy of ±0.02mm and a burr-free surface finish (Ra ≤0.8µm).

Engineered for high-performance environments, our mesh offers aperture sizes from 0.1mm to 20mm and open area ratios between 5% and 80%. With tensile strengths reaching up to 800 MPa and specialized post-treatments such as electropolishing and anti-reflective coatings, this product is the ideal choice for EMI shielding, medical filtration, and aerospace avionics where zero mechanical stress and high repeatability are critical.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the primary materials used for etched metal mesh?

We use high-grade stainless steel (AISI 304/316), brass, aluminum, and specialized alloys like Inconel 600 for extreme thermal stability.

Q: How does photochemical etching differ from mechanical punching?

Unlike punching, etching is a non-contact process that creates zero mechanical stress, eliminates burrs, and allows for much tighter tolerances (±0.02mm).

Q: Is etched metal mesh suitable for EMI shielding?

Yes, our mesh is certified to MIL-STD-285, delivering EMI shielding effectiveness up to 120 dB within the 1–10 GHz range, ideal for 5G and aerospace.

Q: Can these meshes be used in medical applications?

Absolutely. Our products comply with ISO 13485 standards, providing sterilizable filters with microbial retention as low as 0.2µm.

Q: What is the maximum operating temperature for the mesh?

While standard stainless steel handles high heat, our Inconel 600 versions can operate from -200°C up to 650°C without warping.

Q: What quality certifications do you follow for structural metal products?

We strictly adhere to ISO 9001:2015, IATF 16949 for automotive, RoHS, and REACH environmental standards.
