Thin-Wall IP Substrate

Reportedly, this is the thinnest full-size, deep-draw injection molded IP in North America at 1.9 mm/0.07 in. It was achieved by injection molding a 30% glass-reinforced LFT-PP. Versus the 2.4 mm/0.09 in. microcellular molded benchmark, this design was 14% lighter, saved over $1 USD in materials as well as the microcellular-foaming investment, and helped optimize packaging. Mold filling analysis with fiber orientation was used for accurate warpage predictions and to develop tooling countermeasures to facilitate part molding.
