We injection molded a thin plate with micro prism patterns on its surface and investigated the fidelity of replication of the micro pattern depending on the process parameter such as mold temperature, injection rate or packing pressure. The size of the $90^{\circ}$ prism pattern is $50{\mu}m$ and the size of the plate is $400mm{\times}400mm$. The thickness is 1mm. The fidelity of the replication turned out quite different according to the process parameters and location of the patterns of the plate. We measured the cavity pressure and temperature in real-time during the molding to analyze the effect of the local melt pressure and temperature on the micro pattern replication.
