Smithstown 用 Citizen L12 Type VII 车床加工半毫米微型医疗件并准备扩至十二台
How do you parts-catch a half-millimetre component? Ask Smithstown, where they’re gearing up to make millions!
Smithstown 在爱尔兰香农用配备集成激光切割的 Citizen L12 Type VII 瑞士型车床加工肉眼几乎难以看清的微型医疗零件，并计划将这一工艺推广到十二台同型设备上。该零件尺寸仅约半毫米，属于精度关键的医疗件。Smithstown 将激光加工、真空接料与严格的工艺控制结合起来，为大规模量产做准备。

“It’s an absolutely minuscule part you can barely see with the naked eye.”
MTDCNC’s Rowan Easter-Robinson visits Smithstown in Shannon, Ireland, where a Citizen L12 Type VII Swiss-type lathe with integrated laser cutting is producing tiny, precision-critical medical components.
With plans to roll out the process across twelve identical machines, see how Smithstown is combining laser machining, clever vacuum parts-catching and tight process control to prepare for production on a massive scale.
