Data center cooling
Design and manufacture of high performance cold plates. Manufacture of on-chip embedded cooling channels and fine features.
Microfluidic devices
Fabrication of devices with precise, miniature fluid channels. Applications include
Biological Analysis: DNA analysis, cell sorting, and protein studies.
Chemical Analysis: Enables precise control of chemical reactions and analysis.
Medical Diagnostics: Facilitates point-of-care testing and lab-on-a-chip applications.
Nanoparticle Synthesis: Provides excellent platforms for creating uniformly sized and shaped nanoparticles.
Drug Delivery: Used in drug encapsulation, delivery, and targeting studies.
Organ-on-a-Chip: Allows for the creation of miniature organ models for research and drug testing.
Intricate parts
Production of high-precision parts with intricate shapes. Diffusion bonding produces superior and stronger nonporous products compared to 3D printing.
Industrial process cooling
Custom design and manufacture of localized ultracooling for industrial lasers and 3D printers.
Joining dissimilar metals
Diffusion bonding offers several benefits for joining dissimilar metals:
Creates a high-quality, clean bond without porosity or discontinuity
Allows for joining materials with very high melting points or those impossible to weld by other means
Produces joints that retain strength at high temperatures
Enables the combination of materials with complementary properties (e.g., corrosion resistance and strength)
Outperforms mechanical bolting and adhesive bonding in terms of durability
