MICRO COMPONENT GROUP TO DEMONSTRATE THE POWER OF PHOTO-CHEMICAL ETCHING AT MEDDEVICE BOSTON
The Micro Component Group (comprising micrometal GmbH, HP Etch, Etchform, and Thin Metal Parts Inc.) is proud to announce its participation at MedDevice Boston, the Northeast’s premier event for the medical device and manufacturing community. Taking place at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center on 30 September – 1st October 2025, the event gathers engineers, buyers, and innovators focused on advancing medical technology.
Visitors to Booth 1125 will have the opportunity to discover how photo-chemical etching (PCE) is reshaping what’s possible in the development of precision metal components for medical devices. From micro-meshes and minimally invasive surgical blades to implantable structures and fluidic channels, the Micro Component Group delivers ultra-precise parts that meet the demanding requirements of modern medical applications.
Unlike conventional subtractive processes, PCE enables the creation of highly complex, micron-accurate geometries without introducing mechanical or thermal stress. The process is inherently burr-free and does not alter the metal’s properties, preserving biocompatibility and performance. This makes it an ideal choice for fabricating components used in devices that demand the highest levels of cleanliness, precision, and repeatability.
“Innovation thrives when manufacturing keeps pace with design, and that’s exactly what PCE delivers,” says Jochen Kern, Head of Sales & Marketing at Micro Component Group. “At MedDevice Boston, we’re demonstrating how PCE is not just a manufacturing alternative, it’s the enabler of next-generation medical components.” With digital photo-tooling, PCE offers unmatched design flexibility and rapid prototyping capabilities. Engineers can iterate quickly without costly tooling or long lead times, making it possible to move seamlessly from development to high-volume production. The process also accommodates a wide range of medically relevant metals, including stainless steel, titanium, nickel alloys, and more.
David Faris, the Group’s North American Sales Representative adds, “We’re not just manufacturers, we’re development partners. At MedDevice Boston, we’re here to collaborate, problem-solve, and help you push boundaries with a process that supports innovation at every step.” Attendees are encouraged to visit Booth 1125 to see PCE precision first-hand, explore sample components, and discuss their unique design challenges with Micro Component Group experts. Discover how photo-chemical etching can redefine what’s possible in medical product development.
