Electroforming
left: Small nozzle, right: Enlarged picture of 34G side tip
Electrocasting (electroforming) can be used to produce fine nozzle shapes and seamless ultrafine tubes, which are difficult to produce by machining or cutting.
Metal is deposited on the surface of the core (matrix) in the electrolyte.
