This whitepaper explores Micro Molding with Bioabsorbables. Across the board with plastics, the rules are different when you mold it so small. But when it comes to bioabsorbable resins, they require a much more extensive and specialized approach than thermoplastics. By learning how processing bioabsorbables differs from thermoplastics, medical OEMs can understand the key factors […]

This whitepaper explores how medical micro breakthrough designs are produced and how supplier and design roadblocks can be overcome without compromising the original design. By learning how to efficiently work with a molder to produce a breakthrough idea, medical OEMs can save valuable time in their supplier qualification process, decrease costs, increase speed to market, […]

For micro medical components, there is a wide variety of materials to choose from and many new micro medical applications are relying on bioabsorbable materials because the materials dissolve or absorb into the body, eliminating the need for additional surgeries and minimizing concerns about adverse effects. Across the board with plastics, the rules are different […]

When OEMs prepare to increase production volume of a micromolded component, many focus on multi-cavitation tooling as a strategy to reduce piece part price. While increasing cavitation may be a cost-effective approach for higher volumes of simple thermoplastic parts, it is typically not the best approach for micromolded parts, especially those that are bioabsorbable, or […]
