Microdispensing

Microdispensing is the technique of producing liquid media dosages in volumes of less than one microlitre. The continuing miniaturization in almost all technical areas creates constant challenges for industry, development and research facilities. Microdispensing is one of those challenges. Ever smaller amounts of adhesive, liquid, oil, grease and a multitude of other media must be dispensed reliably and accurately in dosage and placement with shortest cycle times. The precise positioning and quantity of fluids such as glue, reagents or any other substance has a great influence on the overall quality of the medical device involved.A few examples are: Micro-dosing systems with a quantity as small as 50 picolitres Volumetric systems for use with adhesives and spraying systems for silicone coating needles and other surfaces
