Telecommunications
Creating complex, precision components for a wide range of telecommunications applications with chemical photo etching.
Trusted by telecommunications leaders
New technologies like AI and IoT are increasing demands for data transmission in the telecommunications industry. Vaga Industries is a trusted supplier of energy-efficient components, enabling the rapid development and testing of new prototypes and new design components that meet fast-evolving requirements for performance, reliability, and scalability.
High performance and fast to market
Chemical photo etching is an efficient, flexible process that caters to a wide range of telecommunications applications, from high-bandwidth, low-latency prototypes to mass production for components with complex geometries and the tightest tolerances.
We combine low-cost digital tooling with our non-thermal, non-contact chemical etching process to consistently deliver components that are 100% burr, stress, and distortion-free—all at a fixed cost and with faster lead-times than traditional machining methods.
Material versatility
Chemical photo etching is highly versatile and scalable, accommodating a wide range of metals regardless of their hard, soft, or brittle properties, unlike conventional machining methods.
From corrosion-resistant stainless steel to Inconel to exotic alloys, our expert engineers can help you select and source the most economical and effective metal for your unique requirements and application.
