Key Design Considerations
Design for Manufacturing (DFM) is crucial in micro injection molding as it ensures that the part, tooling, and process design considers the manufacturing constraints and requirements specific to this process. Manufacturers can enhance production efficiency, reduce costs, and consistently produce high-quality micro-injection molded components and products by considering DFM principles, such as optimizing part geometry, material selection, and tooling design.
The top five considerations for design for manufacturing in micro injection molding are as follows:
- Part Design
- Material Selection
- Tooling Design
- Process Optimization
- Measurement & Inspection
Quality is importantwhen it comes to your micro molding needs.

Micro Molding Solutions For Your Industry
Within the medical sector, micro molding has applications across both the medical device and life sciences markets. Learn more about the industries PDC proudly serves.
The human heart is one of the body’s most vital organs. Modern medical science has made it possible to repair heart health issues using advanced technology, microcatheter devices & delivery systems capable of restoring proper organ function. At PDC, we offer manufacturers micro molding that enables them to create the cardiovascular medical devices needed to provide critical patient care.
A patient’s quality of life is dependent on their ability to live a pain-free, independent life. The ability to move freely is an important aspect of that, and orthopedics plays an important role. Technological advancements in the field of orthopedic device manufacturing have made it so surgeons are able to offer a broader scope of life-improving procedures. As an orthopedic device manufacturer, you need quality components from a trusted company. At PDC, we offer the micro molding capabilities that manufacturers need when producing these surgical devices.
In recent years, many innovations have been made in the advanced surgical device field. As advanced surgical devices become more complex, it becomes increasingly necessary to develop micro molded components that are both high-quality and effective. At PDC, we offer the micro molding capabilities that manufacturers need when producing these surgical devices.
The field of ophthalmology is devoted to helping people maintain and improve their vision, often through surgical procedures. As technology improves, more advanced opthalmic surgical equipment and devices are being developed every day. The precise nature of this equipment and these devices calls for the highest quality micro molded components. As a manufacturer, you need a company you can trust to provide you with the components you need, to your exact specifications.
When people think about drug delivery systems, they often think about the needle and syringe used to deliver immunizations and medications. However, numerous types of drug delivery systems are used in the medical field. Solutions can include designing and manufacturing devices used to deliver drugs and biologics, such as pumps, injectors, and implantable devices.
When diagnosing an illness or disease, time is often of the essence. Point-of-care diagnostic devices help to obtain diagnostic results while the healthcare provider is with the patient or in a nearby laboratory setting. At PDC, we help those who manufacture point-of-care diagnostic devices to advance PCR and clinical chemistry testing.
The pharmaceutical research industry is constantly growing. Advanced pharmaceutical applications are helping to address health concerns ranging from autoimmune diseases to cancer. In order for effective research to take place, high-quality, advanced devices are required. At PDC, we help those who manufacture pharmaceutical research devices get the components they need.
