Abstract

This paper presents a successful method for fabricating high-quality stainless steel-alumina composite micro machine parts using a soft moulding technique. The fabrication process starts with the production of SU-8 master moulds using a photolithography technique, followed by mirror replication of PDMS soft moulds, preparation of composite slurry using superfine 316-L stainless steel (5 gm) and alpha-alumina powder (
