With the pressure on design engineers to deliver smaller, lighter and more cost-effective components many are turning to micro injection molding for support. Through a series of case studies this presentation will explore the advantages micro injection molding can provide for the medical device industry. Case study examples include: pushing the limits with size, high-volume with high-quality, and an exploration of overmolded/insert molded components (including metal, mesh, fabric, glass and other fine media).Accumold® is a high-tech manufacturer of precision micro molded plastic components with part geometries from 5cm to less than 1mm in size. Processes include: insert molding, clean room molding and 2-shot molding. Materials include: PEEK, Ultem, LCP, and most engineered thermoplastics. Markets include: Micro Electronics, Medical, Micro Optics, Sensors and other emerging technologies.
