Skyphos Technologies received prestigious CCF grant. Thankful and excited for future opportunities.
Skyphos is awarded Virginia Commonwealth Grant from VIPC. Based in Blacksburg, Va., Skyphos Industries is developing a patented micro-3D printer (u3DP) capable of meeting new market requirements for microfluidics (uF), Lab on a Chip (LOC). Skyphos’ technology enables on-demand design changes, bypasses months of development time, and lowers high price tags. Because the materials are the same throughout the development pathway, the process eliminates re-testing, recalibrating, and redesign that happens when moving to hot embossing and injection molding.
