Print 50µm Open Channels

Confidently print master molds with precise channels as fine as 50µm in the XY. Push the limits in design by integrating macro and micro-sized features onto one mold; or take advantage of vertical space by creating multi-depth features with ease.

0.18µm Ra Value Master Molds

Master molds exhibit an exceptional surface finish with a 0.18µm Ra value. This reflects in an optically clear PDMS device, ensures proper bonding to the chosen substrate, and preventing leaking during testing.

Non-Cytotoxic PDMS Devices

When casting PDMS onto the printed master molds, no cytotoxic residual material is transferred, making the Master Mold for PDMS resin biocompatible and suitable for cell culture applications

Device Durability Reuse Master Molds

Printed master molds are able to withstand the temperatures of a conventional lab oven without the loss of printed features. A single master mold can be used several times to cast PDMS devices up to 500 times with the appropriate care.

1-Day Workflow Fast Iterations

A typical master mold can be printed in 1-3 hours (size dependent). Post-print processing is as simple as cleaning the part in isopropyl alcohol and curing for 40 minutes under a UV light. PDMS can be casted directly onto the master mold without any salinization or release agents, and cured in a lab oven at 70°C / 158°F for 3 hours.

Case Study

A portable device that helps detect and study microorganisms directly in the field, 3D printed with Master Mold for PDMS Photopolymer Resin

Detecting microplastics and microorganisms in the field just got easier. This study introduces a low-cost, palm-sized microfluidic device that uses impedance flow cytometry to analyze particles as small as 45 µm—no lab required. Built with 3D printing and PCB tech, it offers a new approach to portable biosensing with high precision and minimal power.
