Micromolds Team Day: Teamwork Beyond Precision Manufacturing
At Micromolds, precision manufacturing is built on more than technology, equipment and processes. Behind every precision mold, micro-molded component and customer project is a team of people working together. At the end of August 2026, the Micromolds team stepped away from the usual working environment for a day focused on teamwork, communication and a bit of friendly competition. It was a chance to strengthen the teamwork behind our everyday work — just in a very different s

Microfluidic Device Scale Up: From Prototype to Commercial Manufacturing
Microfluidic device scale up is a critical stage between successful prototyping and commercial production. A device that performs well in laboratory testing may still require significant design, material and process optimization before it can be manufactured consistently at scale. Many devices that perform well during research and prototyping encounter challenges when transitioning to large-scale manufacturing. Scaling a microfluidic device for commercial manufacturing requir

Custom Injection Molded Trays for Electronics Manufacturing
Custom injection molded waffle pack trays are often required when standard trays cannot provide the dimensional stability, positioning accuracy, or automation compatibility needed for high-precision electronics manufacturing. As electronics injection molding applications become increasingly automated, handling and packaging solutions must meet the same performance standards as the components they support. Over several years of collaboration, I worked with a global technology

How to Choose a Microfluidic Injection Molding Manufacturer
Choosing a microfluidic injection molding manufacturer requires more than comparing tooling costs, lead times, or a single advertised tolerance. The right manufacturer must be able to reproduce critical microfeatures consistently, verify them with suitable metrology, and maintain that capability as production volumes increase. For engineers and procurement teams comparing microfluidic injection molding manufacturers, the key question is simple: can the supplier manufacture, m

When Should a Microfluidic Device Move from PDMS to Injection Molding?
Microfluidics manufacturing at scale demands more than a good prototype. The path from a validated PDMS chip to a reproducible, production-ready custom microfluidic device is where most R&D programs stall and microfluidic injection molding is how the best teams cross that gap. The Reproducibility Wall Every Researcher Hits Microfluidics manufacturing is a discipline with a reproducibility problem and it starts long before production. You've validated the assay. The droplet ge
