Study of the fabrication of AISI 316L microneedle arrays (open access)

Study of the fabrication of AISI 316L microneedle arrays

Article describes a study in which a micro milling process was used to manufacture AISI 316L stainless steel needles arrays with a conical geometry (i.e., a base diameter and height of 1 mm by 1 mm, respectively), and an analysis of tool wear on ball nose micro end milling tools with a diameter of ~200 μm was performed to evaluate the use of lubricant in the manufacture of those conical surfaces.
