MTD MICRO-TECH BULLETIN NO. 1401
Background
The micro-world is a very different place. When distances are measured in microns (0.0004”), and when a single pellet of raw plastic can produce literally dozens of individual finished parts, many of the macro-world’s accepted conditions and interactions just do not apply, especially when complicated by challenging materials such as PEEK, ULTEM, or the fragile and expensive new entries in the Bioresorbable field. This is the world where MTD lives, and where the company works daily on the “Edge of Science”™ to expand the frontiers of injection molding knowledge of the Microworld.
