UV Embossed Structures

Small to medium volume production of UV embossed structures on flexible film is offered. The use of UV curable acrylate/methacrylate resins enables the physical and mechanical properties of the embossed structures to be tailored to customer requirements. Properties such as surface energy or refractive index, as well as hardness of the UV embossed product for example, can be modified by variation in the chemistry of the UV curable resin.

  • Holograms/diffraction gratings/microlenses and waveguides are examples of structures embossed onto flexible film
  • Structures replicated from sub-micron to 50 microns in thickness
  • Reel-to-reel pilot coating and UV embossing machine is situated in a Class 100 Clean Room environment
