ln this work, the feasibility of using a UV laser for micromachining of powder injection molded parts is examined experimentally. The results, although preliminary, indicate that microfabrication of various parts by laser micromachining of the injection molded parts and then sintering is promising. Particularly, micromachining of a mixture composed of stainless steel particles and polyrner binders was studied using a KrF excimer laser.
