3d Printed Microfluidic Selectable Ratio Mixer Pump in 2 Mm3

Year: 2018

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: We report the use of 3D printing to fabricate a selectable ratio mixer pump in a volume of only 2 mm 2 .Our custom 3D printer and material is used to make very compact individual elements such as fluid channels, valves, and pumps that are laid out in 3D to achieve small overall device volume.The device includes two pumps, each connected to its own fluid source, and a two-chamber mixing unit that both mixes the fluid pumped into it from each fluid source, and acts itself as a pump to expel the mixed fluid.
