fine details in injection molding
Microstructuring
One of the challenges in injection molding is the precise reproduction of fine structures and contour details, such as those found in microfluidic lab-on-a-chip systems. Requirements such as planarity over the entire chip design, contour-true molding of the microstructured areas and transparency of the plastic used come together here.
The combination of different possible structuring processes of the mold technology is necessary to be able to reproduce very fine required contour details in the negative of the mold inserts.
Take advantage of the KUZ's expertise in the molding of small contour details in plastic. We support you in adapting your microfluidic design to the requirements of injection molding and in tool design.
