The present disclosure proposes, i.a., a fluidic device (100) having a body with a first substrate (111) and a second substrate (112) which is disposed at a distance from the first substrate (111). The fluidic device (100) also has a fluidic structure (113) which is formed in the space between first substrate (111) and the second substrate (112). The fluidic device (100) features an actuating magnet (120) which is printed or coated as a film on the first substrate (111). The actuating magnet (120) produces a magnetic field for selectively deforming the first substrate (111) in reaction to another magnetic field or to the vicinity of a ferromagnetic material thus changing the volume of the fluidic structure (113). La présente invention propose, ia, un dispositif fluidique (100) ayant un corps avec un premier substrat (111) et un second substrat (112) qui est disposé à une certaine distance du premier substrat (111). Le dispositif fluidique (100) a également une structure fluidique (113) qui est formée dans l'espace entre le premier substrat (111) et le second substrat (112). Le dispositif fluidique (100) comprend un aimant d'actionnement (120) qui est imprimé ou revêtu sous la forme d'un film sur le premier substrat (111). L'aimant d'actionnement (120) produit un champ magnétique pour déformer sélectivement le premier substrat (111) en réaction à un autre champ magnétique ou à proximité d'un matériau ferromagnétique, modifiant ainsi le volume de la structure fluidique (113).
