Micro Milling for Polymer Materials Used in Prototyping of Microfluidic Chip Application

Article Preview

Abstract:

Micro milling is one of the processes that can be used in microfluidic devices fabrication. It has shown the capability for producing the freeform geometries, cost and time effectively. This paper presents the cutting strategies for micro milling process for an application of microfluidic device. The proposed strategies demonstrated the capability of micro milling process to fabricate microchannel and micropillar array from biocompatible polymer materials with good machined surface quality and high aspect ratio of up to three.
