Reaming is a mechanical operation whereby the accuracy of circular hole diameters can be improved. It is particularly effective and reliable for finishing close tolerance holes that photochemical etching produces.

Fotofab is ISO & AS9100D Certified, ITAR Registered, and RoHS compliant. Get in touch if you have questions or are ready to start your custom project.

If your project consists of metals that are sensitive to high levels of heat and require slower machining and cycle times, our reaming service is a good choice for your project.

Fotofab stocks hundreds of different sized reaming tools, making it probable that we already have the tool needed for your application. We also have precision and non-precision reaming tools available.

Fotofab’s reaming service offers the advantage of consistency and overall process stability, providing a single source for all your photochemical machined metal requirements.
