The 6 Sciences of Micro Molding:

How to Achieve Better Long-Term Results and Faster Speed to Market

Summary: 

This whitepaper explores industry trends and details the “six sciences” of the medical micro molding process, from material selection through packaging. By implementing these six sciences, medical device OEMs will understand how to maximize the tools needed for efficient product development and consistent manufacturability in micro molding — and to create product breakthroughs today.

Topics Include:

• Micro Materials: working with thermoplastics and bioabsorbables
• Micro Part Design: understanding micro features and tools for optimizing your design
• Micro Tooling: understanding workpiece accuracy
• Micro Molding: comparing conventional molding vs. advanced medical micro molding
• Micro Metrology: passing Gage R&R (gage repeatability and reproducibility)
• Micro Packaging: customizing end-of-arm tools for every micro medical part
• Bioabsorbable Case Study: how MTD helped a customer achieve a cost savings of 38% over four years
