Here microLIQUID is one of the experts for order processing and production of polymer-based disposable microfluidic systems. The company works with microfluidic engineers and biomedical process developers focusing on applications in the fastest growing areas of the life science and pharmaceutical industry. microLIQUID’s manufacturing services are adapted to each customer’s requirements and comply fully with leading industrial and governmental standards, including ISO 13485. This enables customers to procure production of small batches, set up new production lines and mass produce using proprietary automated and scalable technology. With their expertise, microLIQUID is positioned as a partner for developing and manufacturing fully automatic sample preparation and molecular diagnostic systems.

Miniaturization of optoelectronic modules and components

The role of microtechnology is equally relevant in vaccine and active substance development. AEMtec, an established company for providing complex and reliable solutions in the miniaturization sector, offers a wide portfolio of technology, including wafer back-end services, chip on board, flip chip, 3D integration and opto packaging. Customer-specific requirements are also fulfilled, particularly those from the medical sector. “Our participation in this year’s COMPAMED focuses on our services and miniaturization of optoelectronic modules and components for the medical sector, where we are seeing incredibly rapid technical development,” said Jan Trommershausen, Managing Director of AEMTec. The company is involved in various important devices for fighting COVID-19. It manufactures components for automated pipetting systems for test evaluation within the viral analysis and medical development sector, components for DNA sequencing in the field of genetic and viral analysis and detector components for CT scanners. These can be used to perform lung scans on affected patients before the test results are received.

Fighting the Coronavirus with piezo technology

In “The Fight Against the Coronavirus” forum session, the Physik Instrumente (PI) company will also demonstrate the role that piezo technology plays here. “At the virtual trade fair stand, we also present our standard and customer-specific piezo elements for liquid handling, therapeutic ultrasound and minimally invasive endoscopy, along with transducers and subassemblies for ultrasound applications. Our experts can be seen in the online sessions, including those involving the significance of piezo technology during the COVID-19 era, and can be met personally in the live chat”, explained Annemarie Oesterle, Manager of Medical Technology at PI. As a global partner with over 25 years of expertise, PI develops and manufactures sophisticated piezoceramic components and subsystems for numerous applications in medical technology.
