High-Performance Disc Pumps
Traditional pump technologies typically run at speeds up to 50 Hz (3000 RPM), generating pulsations that can disrupt sensitive systems and reduce precision. In contrast, the Disc Pump operates more than 400 times faster—at 21,000 Hz (1.26 million RPM)—delivering exceptionally smooth, high-frequency airflow. This ultra-fast cycling produces negligible pressure pulsations, creating a near-continuous flow that enhances stability and control in advanced fluidic systems.
While the Disc Pump cannot pump liquids directly, its high responsiveness and pulsation-free performance enable extremely accurate and consistent liquid movement through Pressure Driven Flow. This approach allows users to achieve precise control of flow rate and volume without the mechanical disturbances common in conventional pump designs. The result is a compact, reliable solution ideal for applications requiring quiet operation, smooth pressure output, and rapid set-point response.
Whether used in analytical instruments, medical devices, or microfluidic systems, the Disc Pump’s distinctive performance characteristics help improve measurement accuracy, reduce noise and vibration, and enhance system reliability.

The Disc Pump represents a step-change in pumping technology—offering precision fluid control where traditional methods reach their limits.
