MEPTEC Presentation September 27th, 2011

Friday, September 23rd, 2011

What is MEPTEC? Its the Microelectronics Packaging and Test Engineering Council that serves semiconductor suppliers and manufacturers. As manufacturing technologies continue to innovate to meet the demands for microfabrication, more integration is needed among the various components. ALine is presenting in the “MEMS Technologies for the Medical Industry” on our modular rapid prototyping and volume manufacturing platform for microfluidic circuits. Brad Fox, our sales director will talk about our latest work in demonstrating the reliability of on-board pumps made us using our polymer laminate platform. You can read more in our technical articles section.

ADEPT – ALine Development Platform

Friday, September 23rd, 2011

This is an excellent tool for developing fluid circuits with on-board pumps and valves. The ADEPT platform was also developed for optimizing assay protocols by programming the sequence of valves. Designed to permit real-time inspection and videography of your fluid circuit using a custom x-y stage and video camera. Eliminates the need for complex connections to the card. All air connections via o-ring. Fluid can be delivered through a number of options: on-board reservoir, peristaltic pump, or pneumatically.
