Edge Precision Manufacturing

 

Precision Manufacturing for Challenging Requirements

Edge turns complex designs into precision-molded parts. Teams come to Edge when their project demands precision at the micron scale — features, tolerances, and assemblies that other manufacturers can't or won't take on.

Microfeature & Precision Molding
Single-digit micron feature resolution in thermoplastics through both compression molding and injection molding, enabling geometries previously only achievable through more expensive manufacturing processes. All molding is performed in an ISO 7 cleanroom environment.

Bonding & Assembly
Five bonding technologies — thermal, solvent, adhesive, PSA tapes, and laser welding — with precise location bonding and low-deformation methods. Some teams also come to Edge exclusively for bonding, no molding required — assembling components into test-ready solutions.

ZEONEX® & ZEONOR® COP Molding
Deep experience molding Cyclo Olefin Polymer for optical clarity, purity, and dimensional precision. Edge also accepts customer-specified materials — COP expertise is a strength, not a limitation.

Prototype-to-Production Pathway
A phased process from design feasibility through prototyping, bonding/assembly, pilot, validation, and high-volume manufacturing transfer. Edge isn’t a prototype-only shop — there’s a defined, multi-stage pathway to scalable production.

Surface Treatments
Plasma treatment, protein and polymer coatings, and custom coating solutions for microplates and laboratory disposables. Plasma treatments modify surface energy for hydrophilic or hydrophobic performance, while molecular coatings optimize binding and functionality for immunoassays, cell culture, diagnostics, and more.

Zeon 

 

The Material Foundation  

Zeon supplies ZEONEX® and ZEONOR® Cyclo Olefin Polymer (COP) resins that Edge molds into complex, high-precision components. These materials provide:

  • High optical clarity across a broad spectrum of light
  • Low extractables and high purity
  • Dimensional consistency for micron-scale features
  • Drug compatibility for regulated applications
  • Global production support

Zeon partners with life science teams to provide data-driven material guidance, ensuring material selection supports their most critical applications. Zeon enables Edge to deliver components with the performance required for diagnostic, imaging, and therapeutic delivery systems.

Aurora Microplates

 

Imaging-Optimized Performance

Aurora uses the same material family to manufacture microplates designed for:

  • High-content imaging
  • Cell-based assays
  • Fluorescence workflows
  • Automated imaging systems

Using cleanroom environments and precision molding, Aurora produces microplates valued for exceptional flatness, high clarity, reliable reproducibility, and low optical noise.

Edge + Aurora Collaboration

 

Custom Microplates

Together, Edge and Aurora offer something no one else can: Aurora-level microplate performance combined with Edge's custom molding and manufacturing capability. Teams that need customized designs get:

  • Microstructured microplate bottoms
  • Precision-molded frames with application-specific geometry
  • Laser-welded assemblies and custom bonding configurations
  • Tailored designs for imaging, diagnostic, or microfluidic platforms

All built using Zeon high-clarity materials, with Edge's engineering support from design through production.
