Automated Layering & Stacking

We manufacture microfluidic laminates using highly automated equipment that aligns and stacks layers created through laser cutting and die cutting. By precisely combining these layers, we create the intricate features required for complex products such as microfluidic diagnostics and Lab-on-a-Chip devices. After years of refinement, our custom layering and stacking machines now deliver industry-leading accuracy, repeatability, and throughput.

Faster Product Development

Automated stacking and layering can significantly reduce the development cycle of a microfluidic product. With this approach, we help customers commercialize new products in under a year, compared to the longer timelines of conventional manufacturing methods. Because the equipment requires minimal hard tooling, development costs are lower, and design changes can be implemented more quickly and cost-effectively. In addition, our proprietary robotic assembly equipment is designed to operate in environments that demand the highest levels of cleanliness.

Robotic Assembly Benefits for Medical Devices

Our assembly robots are unique to the industry and feature vision- and force-sensing specifications, enabling them to precisely pick up and place components and layers. They are easily reconfigurable to accommodate design changes or transition to new products. Additional advantages include:

  • Greater overall flexibility and consistency
  • Can accommodate small-batch and full-scale orders
  • Improved quality with process-integrated inspection
  • Higher throughput
  • Less waste
  • Improved traceability
  • Scalable
