Through industry standard FMEA analysis, we were able to pinpoint key risk factors and work towards a fully optimized and enhanced μCP process. Regardless, manual μCP limits the translation of μCP to industry scale manufacturing. Automation of μCP would allow for rapid high-throughput fabrication of lubricant-infused microarrays, making it possible to integrate with current manufacturing machinery in industry. To standardize the μCP protocol and to achieve industry-level scalability, we took the preliminary steps towards the automation of our optimized μCP protocol.
