Gas-Assisted Heating Technology for High Aspect Ratio Microstructure Injection Molding
A hot gas is used for heating the cavity surface of a mold. Different mold gap sizes were designed. The mold surface temperature was heated to above the glass transition temperature of the plastic material, and the mold then closed for melt filling. The cavity surface can be heated to 130°C to assis...
