METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING PERFORATED MICROSTRUCTURES BY USING FLUIDIC JETS

摘要

A method is provided for constructing microstructures that can penetrate skin layers, in which the microelements are formed during a molding process while fluidic jets produce openings in the microelements. The structures used in the molding process are formed by tooling that creates the shapes of the microelements in a material deposition step, and also creates the sizes and shapes of the openings that will be formed by the fluidic jets.
