Microfluidic devices show possibilities for better and easier manipulation of liquids. Due to the complexity of the structure and the small size of the device itself, it is difficult to mass-produce microfluidic devices. In this thesis, 3D printing is presented as an effective technique for the production of microfluidic devices. At the beginning, the theory of microfluidics is presented in Chapter 3. In Chapter 4, we will get to know microfluidic devices, everything from different microfluidic devices to the conventional form of production. Chapter 5 will describe 3D printing as a method of manufacturing a microfluidic device. what are the advantages and disadvantages of individual 3D printing techniques. Finally, examples of manufactured microfluidic devices with the help of 3D printing and their use in the future are shown.
