Microfluidics & microdosing
High-precision dosing of liquids or gases
Microfluidics, an innovative field of research, enables the precise handling of fluids in tiny channels and has many applications in biomedical and chemical analysis. One of the greatest challenges in microfluidics is the production of precise and reliable components, such as micropumps and valves. These must not only be able to precisely control extremely small volumes, but must also be resistant to chemical and physical stresses. In addition, the integration of different functional units into a single microfluidic system requires a high degree of accuracy and compatibility of materials. Miniaturization therefore places high demands on the precision of production and quality assurance.
Micro pump
High-precision dosing pump
Reliable and precise components are essential for medical and pharmaceutical applications. Our stainless steel piezo micropump offers exactly these properties and enables medical device manufacturers to develop innovative solutions.
The micropump is based on advanced piezo technology and is characterized by outstanding features. With an operating life of 10,000 hours, it sets new standards in terms of reliability and durability. Compared to other pumps, our micropump offers up to twice as long a service life. It also boasts excellent back pressure characteristics and high bubble tolerance, which further improves its performance.

At RAPA Healthcare, we understand that every application is unique and requires individual solutions. Another major advantage of the micropump is its adaptability to specific requirements. Technological parameters such as dosing accuracy, back pressure rigidity, size, energy consumption, particle resistance, bubble tolerance and "free flow" protection can be flexibly adapted to individual requirements.
Additional control electronics
We offer suitable control electronics for operating the micropump.
Applications
Our piezo micropump is widely used in medical and analytical technology. It is perfect for the precise dosing of medication, analytical measurements, infusion systems and the handling and supply of cells in bioreactor systems.
It can also be used in machine and device construction, the automotive industry, the chemical industry, the pharmaceutical industry and in industrial disinfection and cleaning devices.
Fast and cost-effective series production
Thanks to its scalability and established procedures and processes, our micropump can be produced quickly and cost-effectively in different quantities. Both small and medium quantities of up to 10,000 units as well as large-scale projects can be realized. Our micropump is ideally suited for use as disposable units.

Self-sensing technology
Micropump monitors itself and detects anomalies without additional external sensors
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) enables our self-monitoring micropump to reliably detect gas bubbles and their size. By evaluating the micropump's control signal using AI and the piezo effect, the pump can react precisely and in good time to any gas bubbles that occur.
