J0402-1-6 Evaluation of tribological characteristics of micro dies

Abstract

For the micro molding, influence by the surface property of the die becomes remarkable by scale effect. However, there are a lot of questions about the characteristic of the micro dies surface. In this study, we discussed for establishment of the tribological characteristic evaluation technology in the micro molding processing, developed the tribological characteristic evaluation device of the micro dies and evaluated a dynamic friction characteristic in the micro scale. In addition, we conducted an investigation into the influence by the die surface treatment.
