The world keeps shrinking so D-MEC LTD. have developed their Micro Laser Modeling System ACCULAS SI-C1000. It's the first system in the world that can make solid models and machine parts at a micro level.  
"It's currently used in places such as college laboratories and research centers. We aim to mass produce micro-parts in the future. "
Unlike previous systems, the ACCULAS series uses a Digital Micro-Mirror to accurately mold the resin at the micron level. The mirror is composed of about a million smaller reflectors. 
Intended for research and prototype production, this machine can make micro gears, micro lens arrays, micro actuators and analytical microchips for a variety of scientific fields.
