Microfluidic molds fabrication
Fast, simple and cheap: we fabricate reusable molds for PDMS microfluidic chips with your design!
Send us your design - a dxf or a picture of hand drawing with clearly marked dimensions and depths - and receive your custom made mold within a week*!
Price:
from 150 €
For standard size mold, including:
- CAD and CAM designs from dxf or step files
- fabrication and post-processing
*Fabrication time and costs depend on the design and mold size. If you wish to get your mold fast and cheap please prepare a dxf or step file that fits into the standard mold size (64 x 21 mm).
Design possibilities and limitations
-
Our technology allows multiple deapths - 2.5D features on your chip (e.g., channels can have a depth of 0.2 mm and a chamber can have a depth of 3 mm).
-
Minimum channel dimension is 200 um, minimum feature dimension is 100 um.
-
The design for the standard mold needs to fit into the dedicated mold space: 64x21x7 mm (Length x Width x Depth)
-
Other mold dimensions are also available upon request (max mold size is 110 x 60 mm)
How to use the mold
1 h at 70 °C
Simply pour PDMS mixture into the mold and incubate it at 70°C for an hour. Then take the cured PDMS chip out of the mold and bond it to a glass slide using plasma or thin layer of uncured PDMS.
How to order
Send us an email containing a .dxf design or a photo of a hand drown sketch, the information about channel depth and a description of other requirements. We'll take care of everything else.
