MTD recently spoke to MoldMaking Technology to discuss current trends and challenges with micro molds—micro milling, cutting tools, mold coatings, CAD/CAM, micro welding, mold design, micro molding, validation, automated assembly and training. The full input from MTD’s head of the tooling department is provided in this article.
“We have the best people and equipment to support our tooling department, and that includes fine wire EDM technology that enables us to produce inside corner radii down to 10 microns, which translates to molded parts that are essentially dead sharp.”
