Description
The innovation : Ultra compact MEMS micro pump:
- The fluid is activated by the oscillations of a flexible polymer membrane.
- Membrane oscillations are generated by an electronically controlled electromagnetic device.
This technology will generate flow rates in the order of µl/min for electricity consumption in the order of mW.
Benefits:
- Compactness: the system has a total volume of 1 cm3
- Very low energy consumption: 150 – 800 mW
- Flow rate in the order of µl/min
- Operation with different types of fluids and in several possible modes: suction or dosing
- No friction, low vibration, low noise
- Low cost and ease of integration
