Abstract
This study proposed a creative technical method of the transfer printing process using a micro-dynamically-regulated micro-structural flexible mold. First, the flexible mold materials were configured and selected. Then material properties were tested, and controlled in a scope suitable for micro elastic deformation. Related equations were used as reference for microscopically changed micro-structural forms. A transfer printing system was developed, and dynamic micro-structural flexible mold transfer print was tested. The experimental results showed that with the micro-dynamically regulated micro-structural flexible mold transfer printing technology proposed in this study, micro-dynamic regulations can be successfully conducted and greatly reduced under allowable micro-structural conditions. The proposed technology can greatly reduce the time and energy consumption problems in the production of relative components, with microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) processes. Moreover, the required replication features could be achieved by transfer printing, and micro-structural imprinting and forming could be conducted in a precise manner, thus, providing an alternative choice for the application of micro-dynamically regulated microcomponents.
