High-rate Manufacturing of 3D Products with Nanostructured Surfaces

Barry C., De Jesus Vega M., Mead J., University of Massachusetts-Lowell, US

Injection molding permits manufacturing of complex three-dimensional polymer products with nanostructured surfaces in less than 30 seconds. New work has explored the practical limits of feature size during injection molding. Surfaces with a range of [...]

High-rate Manufacturing of 3D Products with Micro and Nanostructured Surfaces

Barry C., Mead J., University of Massachusetts-Lowell, US

Injection molding permits the manufacturing of complex three-dimensional products with micro and nanostructured surfaces in less than 30 seconds. Successful high-rate manufacturing of these surfaces depends on understanding the changes required in material selection, tool [...]
