Disclosed are a micro fiber and a method of manufacturing the micro fiber are proposed. The micro fiber may be manufactured by controlling thickness and Young's modulus thereof using hollow fiber.

A method of manufacturing using an additive manufacturing process includes providing a deposition system, the deposition system configured to provide a plurality of cells to form a blank of a part, depositing a first layer of the blank, the first layer comprising a first deposited cell, a second deposited cell spaced apart from the first deposited cell, and a third deposited cell spaced apart from the first deposited cell and the second deposited cell, and depositing a second layer of the part on the first layer, the second layer comprising a fourth deposited cell, a fifth deposited cell spaced apart from the fourth deposited cell, and a sixth deposited cell spaced apart from the fourth deposited cell and the fifth deposited cell. Each of the first layer and the second layer are formed using non-continuous deposition to form the blank.

A method for producing a component is disclosed. In a first step, a planar component layer is produced on a base surface from a metal material which is above the melting temperature thereof. In a second step, shear stresses are introduced into the component layer produced in the first step by a friction pin which rotates about a rotation axis and which is pressed with a predetermined force onto an outer surface of the component layer opposite the base surface and which is moved along the entire outer surface of the component layer. Finally, in a third step, the first step is repeated on the outer surface as a base surface.

Methods and structures for forming anodization layers that protect and cosmetically enhance metal surfaces are described. In some embodiments, methods involve forming an anodization layer on an underlying metal that permits an underlying metal surface to be viewable. In some embodiments, methods involve forming a first anodization layer and an adjacent second anodization layer on an angled surface, the interface between the two anodization layers being regular and uniform. Described are photomasking techniques and tools for providing sharply defined corners on anodized and texturized patterns on metal surfaces. Also described are techniques and tools for providing anodizing resistant components in the manufacture of electronic devices.
