3d Printed Pieces Green and Black 02 1

We developed a laboratory instrument for mixing specific material compounds. This device was designed to ensure the quality control of viscosity, by keeping the mixture at equilibrium and supplying system pressure to the instrument.

Quality Control

The blades and container were prototyped by our engineers and printed using our in-house 3D-printers. The device also features clamps to hold the blades in place and a motor to control the mixing speed.

From 3D Print to Lab Bench

Viscosity control starts with a consistent mix. SurfaceID developed this laboratory instrument to blend specific material compounds, keep the mixture at equilibrium and supply system pressure to the instrument, giving the client’s quality-control process a dependable tool.

Our engineers designed the mixing blades and container, then printed them on SurfaceID’s in-house 3D printers, which made each round of prototyping and testing fast. Clamps hold the blades firmly in place, and a motor controls mixing speed, so technicians get a repeatable process from one sample to the next.
