Microfluidics is a main specialty of MiniFAB. The prototyping of microfluidic devices for feasibility studies is achieved by the integration of functional components such as channels, flow cells, mixers, and other micro-features that can be produced by our toolbox. Fluidic performance is tested using MiniFAB's MiniChemLab system which provides performance reports.

• Prototyping of Microfluidic devices

  • Using our toolbox of micro-features, MiniFAB can provide prototype parts for testing and validation of designs as well as small volume production runs.
• Manifold to fluidic chips

  • Introduction of the fluid sample and its reagents to the microfluidic device and the handling of the fluidic waste can be simplified by the use of a manifold structure that interfaces fluidic control systems to the fluidic cartridge. MiniFAB has standard solutions available but can also fabricate a customized solution.
• Features (channels, flowcells, reservoirs, mixing)

  • A fundamental requirement of a micro-fluidic device is to establish control of fluid flow. MiniFAB can integrate features such as mixing structures, reservoirs, channels and flow cells within your micro-fluidic device to regulate and control this flow.
• Testing

  • Simple visualisation of flow in devices provides valuable insight to the design and performance of microfluidic parts. The MiniChemLab platform allows for testing of the functional components of the micro-fluidic device at the POP stage of your micro-fluidic device.
