WHAT IS MICRO MOLDING?
When it comes to micro molding or micro injection molding, many think the process is simply injection molding for small, intricate parts. However, standard injection molding processes usually do not work when parts are smaller than a pellet of resin, have thin walls or micro features. Other factors come into play including mold design and expert mold fabrication, and the materials being used.
To put size into perspective, micro molding encompasses:
-
Parts that are a fraction of a pellet of resin in size
-
Parts that weigh fractions of a gram
-
Parts with a wall thickness ranging from 0.001 to 0.015 in. (25 to 375 microns)
-
Mold core diameters less than 0.0008” (20 micron)
-
Parts or sub-assemblies requiring 0.002” (50 micron) tolerances or less
-
High length-to-thickness (L:T) ratios or length-to-diameter (L:D) aspect ratios (currently up to 400:1)
-
Larger parts up to 7” long that have micro features, thin walls, micro holes, complex geometry and/or tight tolerances
