reference chip Phrozen Sonic Mighty 12K design, checked in CAD channel-chip 350 × 2775 µm

Straight-channel chip, 350 × 2775 µm, 20 mm long. A computer render of the design, not a photograph: its body drawn see-through, its channels in orange. The chip is 24.5 mm × 5.78 mm × 2.15 mm. Beside it, its cross-section across the middle, and a 500 µm window around the channel, which is 2.77 mm wide and 350 µm deep there.
Rendered from its design files, not photographed: the body see-through, the channels orange, and its cross-section beside it. Pictures in one family share one scale.

Internal geometry — X-ray

X-ray see-through view of Straight-channel chip, 350 × 2775 µm, 20 mm long: plan footprint (true scale) and z-exaggerated isometric of the internal channel and two bores

See-through internal view. Left: fluid footprint in plan, true scale (teal); ports show as the wider circles. Right: isometric of the internal void, vertical z exaggerated 3× for visibility. The exterior is an opaque solid block — this is what is inside it.

Longitudinal section & exterior

Longitudinal section at y=0 (left): grey = solid, white = channel + bores. Exterior isometric (right): the outside of the CAD model, drawn opaque. Click either for full resolution.

Description

A single monolithic block for resin SLA (Phrozen Sonic Mighty 12K, 19 × 24 µm non-square) with one straight rectangular channel 350 µm deep × 2775 µm wide, running the full 20 mm port-to-port at mid-height, a solid floor below and ceiling above, and two Ø1.5 mm vertical access bores to the top surface. Footprint 24.5 × 5.775 × 2.15 mm.
