Application of ultrasonic welding to the rapid prototyping of microfluidic systems for biotechnology

Creator:

Aramphongphun, Chuckaphun

Abstract:

This paper introduces an alternative technique for the development of microfluidic systems for biotechnology based on mechanical machining and ultrasonic welding. Advantages of this approach over existing prototyping approaches involving the rapid development of tooling include: (a) short cycle time, (b) design flexibility, and (c) low cost manufacturing. In addition,...
