Keywords:biodegradable polymer, micromolding, material strength evaluation

In order to evaluate the strength of precision molded medical devices, we have constructed a strength measuring device applicable to a small test piece of submillimeter size. As a test piece for strength measurement, a minute cylinderical column of biodegradable polymer was produced by a molding method.
