Develop polymer microneedle masters and explore complex or hollow geometries for transdermal delivery research. Photosynthetic helps R&D teams move from a design question to a physical microstructure they can inspect, compare and refine.
Microneedle development starts with the application: what must the structure do, and which geometry will you compare? Photosynthetic supports prototyping for research into transdermal drug and vaccine delivery concepts. Use physical structures to examine your design and plan the next experiment.
Create polymer microneedle masters and investigate complex or hollow forms. Define the needle profile, height, spacing and array layout around your research question. A master and a functional delivery device have different requirements; we can discuss which prototype is appropriate for your development stage.
Explore geometry variants before committing to the next development step. Compare array organisation, inspect the printed features and use what you learn to refine your design. Fast prototyping can support a more practical cycle of design, fabrication and evaluation.
ORIGIN 2.5 uses single-photon volumetric microlithography to create 2.5D polymer microstructures. Platform specifications include features below 5 µm, heights up to 1000 µm and aspect ratios up to 20:1. The practical design window depends on the geometry and material; discuss your target dimensions with our team.
Material selection and the intended test conditions belong in the design brief. Share whether you need a master, a geometry demonstrator or a prototype for a defined experiment. Suitability for biological testing, delivery performance and downstream processing must be established for the intended use.
Tell us your delivery concept, target needle dimensions, solid or hollow design, array footprint, spacing and material needs. Include your current development stage and the question you want the prototype to answer. We can then discuss feasibility and a practical next step.
