Stepper Motor Actuated Microvalve
We present the design, fabrication and characterization of a novel microvalve realized by combining micro and fine machining techniques. The design is for high flow rates at high pressure difference between inlet and outlet, burst pressure of up to 15 bars, there is no power consumption required for the valve to maintain its position during operation in any intermediate state and the process ga...
متن کاملMagnetically actuated propulsion at low Reynolds numbers: towards nanoscale control.
Significant progress has been made in the fabrication of micron and sub-micron structures whose motion can be controlled in liquids under ambient conditions. The aim of many of these engineering endeavors is to be able to build and propel an artificial micro-structure that rivals the versatility of biological swimmers of similar size, e.g. motile bacterial cells. Applications for such artificia...
متن کاملMagnetically-actuated artificial cilia for microfluidic propulsion.
In this paper we quantitatively analyse the performance of magnetically-driven artificial cilia for lab-on-a-chip applications. The artificial cilia are fabricated using thin polymer films with embedded magnetic nano-particles and their deformation is studied under different external magnetic fields and flows. A coupled magneto-mechanical solid-fluid model that accurately captures the interacti...
متن کاملMagnetically Actuated Multiscale Medical Robots
Magnetic manipulation systems designed to date have typically relied on either stationary electromagnetswhich facilitate straightforward real-time control, but result in large and complex systemsor slowly moving permanent magnetswhich generate strong fields, but are typically controlled in a quasistatic fashion. In the Telerobotics Lab at the University of Utah, we are exploring the use of smal...
متن کاملOn-demand Control of Microfluidic Flow via Solenoid Microvalve Suction
A simple, low-cost and on-demand microfluidic controlling platform was developed based on a capillary-tuned solenoid microvalve suction effect without any outer pressure source. The suction effect was employed as a stable driving force for manipulating micro-fluid by connecting a piece of capillary tubing between the microvalve and the chip. The suction volume could be controlled from microlite...
