Micro Injection Molding Medical Devices Utilize Micromolding for Injection of Dissimilar Materials

Micro injection molding is a molding process for the manufacture of plastics components for shot weights of 1 to 0.1 g with tolerances in the range of 10 to 100 microns. In this process, the material being molded is first liquefied by heating it to a specific temperature. This "plasticizing" action causes the compound to expand into its liquid form, while simultaneously solidifying at the same time. The result is a material with several tensile components that can be precisely cut and shaped without having to compromise its integrity or strength.
