Fabricating hot embossing micro tool using electrodischarge machining

A prototype micro tool with straight micro channels was produced on “protherm” mold material using electro discharge machining (EDM). The width and depth of the channel were 0.8 mm and 2 mm respectively. So the aspect ratio of the channel was 2.5 which was competitive with other hot embossing micro...
