The Development of Temperature Control System for Fabrication of Plastic Microfludic Chips with Hot - embossing Method

Using plastic in fabrication microfludic chips and realizing automating is the key to extend the applications.Temperature is one of the important parameters in hot embossing.An temperature control system for fabrication of plastic chips which is based on thermoelectric module for heating and cooling was designed;the power of heating/cooling in hot embossing and the necessity of circulation water for assistant cooling were analyzed;aiming at the characteristic of thermoelectric module,a convenient for industry computer control power supply device was developed.The experiment of speed of temperature rasing/falling and accuracy of control are carried out.The results show that the temperaturecontrol system is feasible for fabrication of plastic microfludic chips with hot embossing.
