IMT AG is the provider of leading edge BioMEMS technology transferring the microfabrication expertise originally developed for micro-electronics (MEMS) into flexible and scalable solutions for the manufacturing of micro- and nanostructures in glass for consumables in life science applications and components in medical instruments and equipment. With more than 60 years of experience in the fields of optics and metrology, IMT AG is well positioned at the intersection of microfluidics and photonics to act as a development partner, as well as a large-scale manufacturer of glass consumables for microfluidic and biophotonic applications.
IMT offers flexible processes that enable customized microfluidic solutions in glass: design consultancy, prototyping and scalable manufacturing for applications such as next generation sequencing, organ-on-a-chip, lab-on-a-chip, single-cell analysis, cell enrichment, sample preparation and many more.
Applications such as next generation sequencing (NGS), cell selection and organ-on-a-chip technologies all benefit from the ability to pattern nanofeatures in glass microchannels.
The ability to deposit high-quality thin films such as high-refractive index materials allow the incorporation of added photonic functionality into flow cells such as waveguides and coupling gratings.
IMT AG is the partner for glass flow cells ranging from high-performance all glass components with supreme optical access into the channel system to flow cells with added functionality for photonic, electronic and chemical applications.
By harvesting the power of CMOS processes and technologies that are readily available and well understood, IMT can provide all components from prototyping to high-volume production from the same process set. Scaling up is as simple as flicking a switch, no changes in processes or materials needed.
