Abstract

Translating Customer Ideas from Prototyping to Mass Manufacturing

Iris Prinz, Head of Business Development and Sales EMEA, STRATEC Consumables GmbH

Since 2009 STRATEC Consumables (former Sony DADC BioSciences) started partnerships with Life Sciences and Diagnostics companies enabling the industrial manufacturing of smart polymer parts. Within the talk the successful transfer from prototypes made of PDMS, Glass or even Steel are shown into mass manufactured disposable polymer parts for different applications like digital PCR and MALDI. Also new innovations will be presented, e.g. the work done within the TWINFYSON EC Project as well as cooperation with Fianostics, realising plasmonic metal structures in order to raise the sensitivity of immonoassays.
