High-precision molding in the PTV
As reported in the newspaper El Mundo last week, the ASCAMM technology center located in el Parc Tecnològic del Vallès (PTV), next door to the Barcelona Synchrotron Park, patented the USM technology (Ultra Sound Molding) that allows microcomponents molding using ultrasonic waves to heat and melt the material. This microinjection system is commercialized by the Ultrasion spin-off company located in ASCAMM, that has developed Sonorus 1G, the first microsonic micro molding machine in the world.

Companies that develop high added value products with high-precision parts might be interested by this technology, such as companies in the medical and biomedical sector, telecommunication, electronics, precision engineering, etc.
 
The ASCAMM technology center aims to generate new production technologies and to transfer them to its industrial environment.

ASCAMM works in widely differing sectors, such as transport, health, construction, industrial equipment and energy, electrical appliances and consumer electronics, packaging, together with plastic and metal transformation.
