Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) thermoplastics are well-known in the consumer electronics industry for tight tolerance designs with high stiffness and strength, plus rapid cycle times and extreme flow to fill sub-mm wall sections. These same advantages are translatable to precision combination drug delivery devices which incorporate complex mechanisms and wireless connected electronics for prescription adherence goals.

Topics covered include:

Processing benefits for micromolding replication of details and economical device volumes
How LCP resins can help designers and engineers achieve more compact, intricate components
Advantages in wearable/on body devices where light weighting, compact form factors, and liberating more internal space for pharma dose & components are critical
