Overview

Comparative analysis demonstrates the critical impact of wall thickness on structural integrity in microfluidic devices, suggesting optimal machining strategies.

Key Points

  • Wall thickness affects structural integrity in microfluidic devices, particularly during machining.
  • Experimental data reveal that 50 μm walls are prone to cracking, while thicker walls retain integrity.
  • Micro-milling methods were used to assess wall deformation characteristics in PMMA channels.
  • Finite element modeling and analysis of variance indicated significant influences on wall deviations.
