微笔记：聚苯乙烯中的微流体通道
We recently completed a project in which a customer required very precise micro channels in Polystyrene. Polystyrene can be a difficult material to laser machine, as the thermal effects of the process are often greater than are seen with other polymers, such as Polyimide and PEEK. After evaluating various manufacturing options, we chose to machine…
