Funded Activity Summary

Micromanufacturing and the mechanics of novel composite micro drills. The aim of this project is to develop a novel micromanufacturing technology to produce composite micro drills with desirable properties and reduced production costs. The developed micro drills have significant applications for the printed circuit board industry, medical devices, personal computers, mobile phones and digital cameras. The expected outcomes include optimisation of the micromanufacturing process for improved properties of composite micro drills and an enhanced awareness of the mechanics of micromanufacturing composite micro drills to increase reliability in subsequent micro drilling processes. The outcomes have the potential to contribute to the competitiveness of Australia's manufacturing industry.
