Normally, micro injection molding parts was produce by using specially built micro injection molding machine or modified conventional injection molding machine that suit the process of producing micro parts.

For the melt temperature material at 230°C and mould at both sides is 50°C. The Moldflow results are barely different. From the result, we can determine the best of runner before fabrication process take place. This analysis may reduce miscellaneous cost. The comparison need to be undertaken. The analysis can tell the best fill time, injection pressure, shot weight, air traps, weld line, time to freeze, temperature at flow front, and etc. The analysis will determine that weather Moldflow is suitable for micro plastics or not. 2012-06 Undergraduates Project Papers NonPeerReviewed application/pdf en http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/3482/1/cd6280_88.pdf Mohammad Farhan, Othman (2012) Analysis and prediction of micro injection molding part using moldflow simulation software.
