The Expanding Role Of Micro Molding In Photonics

Brett Saddoris, Technical Marketing Manager, Accumold

Photonics represents one of the most exciting frontiers in modern manufacturing, and micro molding is its silent workhorse. As systems become more integrated and device footprints continue to shrink, micro molding offers the repeatability, scalability, and performance required to keep pace.

For OEMs and product developers navigating this space, the takeaway is clear. Success in photonics will be increasingly tied to the ability to manufacture small, complex, and optically precise parts at scale. That means choosing partners who understand the physics of light, the properties of high-performance polymers, and the intricacies of molding at the micron level.

At Accumold, we continue to invest in these capabilities, not simply to follow the trends, but to help shape them. The future of photonics is bright. And we’re helping to mold it, one micro part at a time.
