| Abstract Scope |
Coining and nanoimprint are forming processes for surface micro geometry of metal or plastic. Pattern on the tools of these process is usually produced using precision cutting, photo lithography, ion beam milling and so on. However, these forming methods of pattern need long processing time and high cost. A new printing method for metal using soft material tools is developed. This method uses paper or plastic film with fine pattern produced by laser printer as printing tool. Aluminum disc is compressed with soft material tool between upper and lower flat dies. In order to print in high accuracy and uniformed pattern to metal surface, effects of process conditions to printing are investigated. Experimental results using soft material tools showed that the good condition for high accuracy is changed by combination of average pressure and work piece shape. |
