System for micro-molding articles

A system for injection molding articles comprising:

• a micro-molding machine including a controller;
• the controller having a processor executing computer readable instructions to:
• melt and pre-pressurize thermoplastic material to a first level, within a plasticizing barrel of the micro-molding machine;
• manipulate melt pressure of the thermoplastic material to a second level, within a hot runner of a manifold of the micro-molding machine, wherein the pressure within the manifold is held constant throughout the cycle time;
• manipulate the melt pressure of the thermoplastic material to an ultra-cavity packing pressure within a micro cavity;
• and
• increase temperature of the thermoplastic material in a cascading manner as the thermoplastic material travels from the plasticizing barrel to exit from a valve gate nozzle to enter the mold cavity.
