Development of Microreplication Process - Micromolding

A microreplication process, micromolding, was developed to replicate three-dimensional microcomponents. It included modifying a conventional molding machine, developing a thermal control unit to control the mold temperature, and developing a vacuum unit to evacuate the microcavity before filling it...
