Precision Tooling: End Mills for Graphite in the Semiconductor Industry

Last week, a long-standing client—a contract manufacturer in Silicon Valley specializing in tier-one semiconductor components—sent us an urgent email. While machining the final, intricate fine grooves of a batch of high-purity graphite boats, they hit a wall. Microscopic chipping along the slot edges suddenly appeared, rendering the entire batch of expensive, semiconductor-grade workpieces complete scrap. […]
