  • Abstract
    The advantages of electron beam cutting are outlined. Specific production applications of these cutting techniques to electronic packaging are discussed in detail. Examples presented include: the etching of micro components; the scribing of thin films; the drilling and cutting of precision holes and slots in ceramic components; and the use of the electron beam cutter as a salvage tool.
