Multilayer film

plasticpolyamide

Tech-Etch photo etches polyimide film to make flat parts for many applications. Pictured here are typical photo etched polyimide (etched KAPTON®) non-conductive washers, screens, gaskets, plus insulation layers and liners. KAPTON® is a DuPont registered trademark. Photo etching or photo chemical milling Kapton offers low tooling cost, very fast turnaround and enables rapid design changes. Commonly made from .001", .002", .003", and .005" Dupont KAPTON® or other polyimide films. Often used in corrosive environments. Photo etched bend lines are used for 3D forming. Polyimide film exhibits excellent physical, chemical and electrical properties over a wide temperature range. Polyimide parts also have limited spring properties. Prototype to production.
