Thin Wall Micro Molding: Link Component

« »

Thin Wall Link Component

Micro Material: This component was molded from a confidential, custom-compounded thermoplastic material.

Micro Features: The design features 0.004″ (0.10 mm) wall thickness surrounding the 0.011″ (0.28 mm) diameter through-holes.

Description: Custom-compounded experimental materials were used in the Research & Development phase of this thin wall micromolding device. One was a nickel-coated carbon fiber LCP. This link component was built to exceedingly tight tolerances, per our customer’s specifications.

Medical micro injection molding is what we do. And all we do.

We’ve made millions of micromolded medical parts. We know how to produce the high quality our customers demand for applications all around the body.

We have years of expertise in problem-solving the most challenging micro part designs, including ones that feature ultra-thin wall stocks, high aspect ratios, and extremely tight tolerances.

Thermoplastics are a great micromolding material to work with as they become pliable above a specific temperature, but return to their rigid state upon cooling. The challenge with thermoplastics is knowing when a seemingly minor change in the design or an alternative thermoplastic material choice can significantly impact the quality and cost-effectiveness of the part.

MTD’s advanced technologies and flawless tooling execution helps customers achieve the highest results possible.
