A lab-on-a-chip (LoC) makes it possible to miniaturise complex lab processes and perform them fast and accurately on a microscale. In this article we focus on the aspects of flow control in such ...
Innovation in manufacturing plays a key role in reducing the industry’s environmental impact. Recent advances in non-classical manufacturing technologies, such as ultrashort pulsed laser manufacturing, open doors to new opportunities, reconciling cost considerations and environmental impact. Sirris has acquired the know-how and infrastructure to create with this laser technology novel surface textures, that often surpass the performance of classical coatings. Check out our comparative overview!
Polymer-based microfluidic chip production is ideally suited for high-volume, low-cost applications such as bedside diagnostics, quality control in the field and rapid sample preparation for analysis ...
More and more suppliers are offering online customisation for various production technologies: 3D printing, machining, injection moulding, etc. Customers can, for example, upload a 3D product model ...
Microfluidics - the manipulation of fluids at micro-scale - offer considerable advantages, such as a significant reduction in the volumes of samples, reagents and waste. Unique chemical and physical ...
In many industries test samples are taken on a regular basis to check or analyse their composition. These samples take a whole course, from collection to appropriate action, which takes up (too) much ...
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Industry 4.0 are transforming the way we connect, monitor, and control industrial systems and devices. However, one of the biggest challenges in this ...
In a world where technology is evolving at a frenetic pace, the agrifood industry is not staying put. Sirris, an innovation driver, is launching a series of participatory workshops within the ...
On 8 February 2024, for the tenth year in a row, the most future-proof factories in our country were celebrated with an award. A total of ten Belgian companies can now proudly call themselves 'Factory ...
In recent years, considerable attention in surface engineering research has been directed towards superhydrophobic surfaces - surfaces that exhibit extremely high resistance to wetting by water. In ...
Digital work instruction systems are still on the rise and, in addition to various digital tools, now also integrate AI so that operators can quickly gain access to the correct relevant knowledge. We ...
