FluidCube | Switch Extension brings dedicated valve control to the FluidCube ecosystem.
As fluidic systems become more sophisticated, controlling where fluids move becomes just as important as generating flow. FluidCube | Switch enables compatible valves to be integrated into FluidCube configurations, allowing precise fluid routing and application-specific workflows.
Working together with FluidCube | Base, FluidCube | Switch helps developers build flexible and multiplexed fluidic systems while maintaining centralized control through Bartels FluidicStudio.
Whether managing multiple fluid paths, automating routing sequences or creating more advanced fluidic architectures, FluidCube | Switch provides the flexibility required for evolving systems.
Benefits
