Reconfigurable micro-mould for the manufacture of truly 3D polymer microfluidic devices. In Roy, R. and Shehab, E. (eds.) Competitive design: proceedings of the 19th CIRP design conference, 30-31st March 2009, Cranfield, UK, pages 343-346. Cranfield: Cranfield University.9780955743641http://hdl.handle.net/1826/3721Organised by: Cranfield UniversityThis paper concerns the concept, the design and the manufacturing steps for the fabrication of a precision mould for micro-injection moulding of truly three dimensional microfluidic devices. The mould was designed using the concept of replaceable cavities to enable the flexible development of the complex microfluidic device and to reduce machining time and therefore costs during the prototyping, testing and subsequent production phase. The precision machining technique used for the cavity manufacture was micromilling.enCopyright: Cranfield University 2009MouldMicromachiningMicrofluidicsReconfigurable micro-mould for the manufacture of truly 3D polymer microfluidic devicesConference paper
