The latest technology for the production of nano structures

From November 11 to 14, 2024, WITTMANN BATTENFELD will present to visitors of the Compamed the latest solutions for time and cost optimization in the production of parts with nano structures at its booth No. F03-1 in hall 8b. 

As the leading international trade fair of the medical technology supplies sector, the Compamed is a suitable platform for WITTMANN BATTENFELD to present its latest solutions in the field of micro injection molding, since miniaturization now plays a vital part especially in medical technology.

At this year’s Compamed, the company will demonstrate in cooperation with NanoVoxel, based in Vienna, the use of a 4-cavity mold produced by 3-D printing to manufacture a micro part on which nano-scale structures are formed. The MicroPower, specially designed for injection molding of micro parts, is equipped with a two-step screw-and-plunger injection unit, via which thermally homogeneous melt can be injected with shot volumes ranging from 1.2 to 6 cm³. In this way, it is possible to produce parts of outstanding precision in an absolutely stable production process and within minimal cycle times.

With its MicroPower 15/10, WITTMANN BATTENFELD will produce at its booth a demo tile measuring no more than 8.5 by 8.5 mm, depicting a world map on which all WITTMANN production sites are shown. Here, the mold technology developed by NanoVoxel offers the advantage of being able to produce extremely small structures in a short time and at low cost. The high precision which can be achieved by combining NanoVoxel mold technology with the machine technology from WITTMANN BATTENFELD opens up new perspectives for medical technology applications.
