Surface texturing
Using micro- and nanostructures, we modify the properties of polymer surfaces without changing their composition.
For this purpose, we develop tools and processes for high fidelity replication of functional surface structures:
- Design and layout of functional surface topographies (biomimetics, calculations, simulation).
- Fabrication of master structures by ultra-short pulse laser micromachining or lithography
- Tool design and master integration
- Component design and process simulation
- Industrial replication technologies: injection (compression) molding, hot embossing, UV imprinting
- Validation of functional samples
