Lab on a chip manufacturing

This multidisciplinary project combines materials testing, thermal analysis, manufacturing technology development, and microfluidic device design, to understand additive manufacturing materials and develop practical applications in specialized printing and microfluidic systems.

The project also includes two significant design and development components: creating an ink printing machine (likely for specialized additive manufacturing applications) and designing a lab-on-a-chip device. The development of lab-on-a-chip technology suggests applications in microfluidics, potentially for biological or chemical analysis, where miniaturized systems offer advantages in terms of sample volume, reaction time, and portability.
