The Design and Analysis of Polymer Cosmetic Micro-Needle

Article Preview

Abstract:

At present, most of cosmetic micro-needle in the market is made of biomedical stainless steels, but the processing technology is complicated and the piece-production cost is high. Micro injection molding technology can make the complicated polymer micro-needle in one cycle with the help of the rich experience accumulated in this area. And the method is suitable for mass production. This paper introduces the design of a new type of cosmetic micro-needle with polymer, its number simulation with injection molding software mold flow and the strength simulation.
