PumpRing - World's only Disposable Precision MicroPump that is integrated into your consumable, not connecting to it from the outside. This provides products with 5 key unique selling points:
Unrivalled precision: The pump is part of the fluidic pathway. Hence there is no air spring-related delay or imprecision for fluid flow.
No contamination risk: Closed loop operation preventing product exposure to the environment.
No wasted fluid: Pump can be positioned directly at the fluid source, ensuring every drop is used.
No cleaning required: With no leftover residues in tubes, cleaning steps are eliminated entirely.
Low cost: Replacing precision pumps out of the instrument cuts cost and extends instrument life due to eliminated contamination risk.
PumpRing enables thus far impossible fluid handling opportunities.

PumpRing is a deconstructed peristaltic pump.
The 2-shot moulded PumpRing replaces the tube in traditional peristaltic pumps.
The second half of the flow channel is an integrated design feature of the disposable cartridge.
-
No. PumpRing is extremely cost effective. The pump channel is an integral part of your disposable design and therefore free.
Additionally you will need one more component, the 2-shot PumpRing element, which is produced at high volumes and is very affordable, and a fast laser welding process that can be highly automated.
-
Yes, but not as a stand-alone product itself. We are working with several companies to integrate the power of PumpRing into their products at the moment.
