To better understand how we can exceed even the most difficult of customer&#8217;s demands, we administered a thin-wall study in-house. At the conclusion of the study we discovered we were able to produce a part with a 64:1 aspect ratio. Obviously, material selection and part geometry play critical roles when creating micro features and small tolerances, of which we are extremely knowledgeable &#8211; our engineers are many of our customer&#8217;s secret weapon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our DFM engineers know material selection can greatly affect the fill and definition of features, so it&#8217;s always important to bring us into your process earlier than later. We have made smaller parts, but because they are a customer&#8217;s intellectual property, we can&#8217;t expand in much detail.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Micro molding dimensions are complex and vary in size considerably, but micro molding is classified as anything under one square [&#8230;] <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.accu-mold.com\/de\/frequently-asked-questions-faq\/how-small-can-precision-micro-molding-component\/\">Read More<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">about How Small Are Your Precision Micro Mold Components?<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"parent":19689,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_wd_proto_hide_page_title":false,"_wd_proto_page_body_class":"","_wd_proto_post_layout":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-19714","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How Small Are Micro Molding Dimensions?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Micro molding dimensions are complex and vary in size considerably, but micro molding is classified as anything under one square inch.
