Maintaining a precise temperature below ambient, and monitoring this temperature carefully, are critical to extending the shelf life of reagents used in chemical and biological processes. Thermoelectric cooler assemblies provide a more efficient, reliable and cost-effective thermal control method compared to other thermal management technologies.
Additive manufacturing, better known as 3D printing, is an emerging application that is finding an expanding purpose in the manufacturing process. Once primarily used for quickly making prototype parts, 3D printing is now also used to digitize workflow and manufacture production quality final products. There are many different types of 3D printing methods used to physically create a desired object.
增材制造也称为 3D 打印，这是一种新兴技术，能够生产更牢固、更轻的产品，可用于医疗、工业和消费等市场的广泛应用。在3D 打印在 1990 年代刚刚开始时，它被认为仅适用于原型零件。随着材料、精度和可重复性的改进，这种技术现在已经常用于最终产品的制造和工作流程的数字化。3D 打印机利用激光将熔化的塑料树脂或金属一层一层地堆叠（打印）以创建牢固的3D部件。这种激光或电子束会产生大量热量，需要将这些热量从敏感电子设备中散发出去，以确保高质量的3D打印物体和机器设备长寿命运行。
对于占位面积较小的激光系统，可以将热电冷却器直接安装在激光器外部。莱尔德热系统的 UltraTEC™ UTX 系列可冷却至远低于环境温度，并将热量从 3D 打印机的敏感组件散发出去。

试剂对于实验室和医学测试必不可少。试剂材料用于检测某些物质的存在与否，或测试是否发生特定反应。温度控制对于保存试剂材料至关重要，如果储存在不适当温度下，这些材料会随着时间的推移而性能变差。当它们保持在室温时，试剂还可能会被微生物生长污染，从而影响测试的完整性。如果试剂经历多次冻融循环，它们在低温下也会受到负面影响。
鉴于许多试剂的成本很高，也应考虑试剂存储系统的温度控制。基于压缩机的制冷和冷却系统具有很高的性能系数 (COP)，可以有效地提供低于环境温度的精确温度控制。通过最新的技术进步也消除了以前基于压缩机系统的许多缺点，包括尺寸、重量、可靠性、生态友好性和成本等方面。标准和定制基于压缩机的制冷系统是试剂等生物材料温度控制的理想解决方案。
