Initial Stress Behaviour of Micro Injection-Moulded Devices with Integrated Piezo-Fibre Composites

  • Conference paper

Abstract

Based on an increasing demand for function integration in small components, micro injection moulding offers a highly productive solution to combine plastic structures with additional electronic and mechatronic features. Particularly two-component micro injection moulding allows embedding of active elements as well as the application of electric contacts in one process step by using insolating and conductive compounds, respectively. The study outlines major effects on the thermo-mechanical compatibility of active modules comprising several stacked piezo fibre composite beams. With regard to material properties, geometry of the module, machine set up and processing parameters a structural and strength analysis including process induced residual stress is used to predict favourable material combination and composite design.
