Fluidic Cards

Fluidic Cards

Foils and films are vital components in the design and function of microfluidic cards.  They enable formation of microchannels, provide barriers and separation layers, serve as optical windows, create reaction chambers, and facilitate fluid control mechanisms.  Heat sealing is a critical process in the assembly of microfluidic cards, providing a reliable method for integrating foils and films.  It ensures strong, durable and leak-proof bonds that are essential for the proper functioning of microfluidic devices.  By leveraging heat sealing, manufacturers can produce high-quality microfluidic devices for a wide range of applications in diagnostics, environmental monitoring, pharmaceutical research, and chemical analysis.
