Revision as of 08:07, 11 December 2007

Chips received 12/12/06

  • The valves did not seal completely in this batch at 20psi.
example of incomplete sealing


Chips received 4/3/07

  • A - collapsed valves on both reactors (~6 each)
  • B - 1 reactor with collapsed valves (~2) and one without (that seems to be working great so far).
  • C - both reactors didn't have collapsed valves, however 2 of the port holes weren't drilled, so reactors were unusable. (must have gotten missed)

Chips received 5/24/07

  • A1 - push up layer alignment is somewhat off-center, may still be usable
  • A2 - push up layer alignment is somewhat off-center, may still be usable
  • B1 - push up layer alignment is very off-center, UNUSABLE.
  • B2 - looks OK; this is surprising considering the status of B1 (these are on the same chip so shouldn't be very independent if there isn't warping of the layer...)
  • C1 - push up layer alignment somewhat off center (worse than C2), may still be usable (though the sorting chamber doesn't look great so probably not worth using).
  • C2 - push up layer alignment is somewhat off-center, sorting chamber looks OK, likely usable.
  • D1 - looks fine, thought there is a 'dimple' in the feed line on the right hand side of the reactor.
  • D2 - looks very good - used this for 5/29/07 run

Chips received 7/9/07

  • A1 - pushUP is slightly off-cener (not as bad as D1), but there are some troubling looking connections between valves in the valves directly to the right of the pump valves. Also, many of the valves appear to be collapsed. Suspect this reactor is unusable.
  • A2 - same prognosis as A1.
  • B1 - looks great; usable - used for 9/9/07 run
  • B2 - looks great alignment wise, there may be a problem in the fluid line in the upper left area, it could be collapsed or it might be nothing; would need to test.
  • C1 - looks perfect used for 7/11/07 run
  • C2 - push up layer is shifted to the right heavily; unusable
    • This is indicative of warping of the layer or something, since it shouldn't be OK for one reactor and totally off for the other on the same chip.
  • D1 - unusable, push up layer is off center
  • D2 - looks good, not as good as C1 but almost certainly usable
  • E1 - looks great; usable
  • E2 - 2 possible collapsed valves, alignment of pushUP is pretty off or a couple valves. possible usable, but not guaranteed.
  • ordering of usable chips: E1 > B2
  • used:C1 > B1 > D2

Chips recieved 12/11/07

(actually recieved in november, but just testing them out now)

  • A1 - very well aligned, some collapsed valves (4 or 5). Also, some strangeness in the push up layer where the valve at the media entrance is elongated. (usuable if vavles can be forced open w air)
  • A2- very well aligned, many collapsed valves (>15), plus the 'T' junctions in the reactor are collapsed. probably unusable
  • B1 - very well aligned; 2 collapsed valves - Probably usable
  • B2 - very well aligned; 1 collapsed valves - Probably usable
  • C1 - push UP is shifted right significantly (overlaps with pump valves and the sorting chamber isn't centerd at all), had a dimple in the right feed line, probably unusable
  • C2 - push down valves are shifted left a bit. in the right side of he reactor they overlap about 1/2 way with the reactor channel. They may cause it to be thinned and create weirdness. For the most part though this reactor looks just fine. If the ones on the right don't seal the reactor channel too much it would be usable. (maybe usable)
