Medical Equipment

1. Microfluidics applications in medical equipment

Medical equipment is a type of detection and analytical instrument that works for the blood, protein, urine, etc. to assess if the health parameters meet the standards or not, it is widely used in hospitals or research departments on a very large scale, but it is different from the common surgical instruments because it has to works on the sample fluids in very high precision level, not only transfer the fluid in surgical. Nowadays, many instrument manufacturers focus on researching small-size medical equipment that is space-saving and easy to operate for both hospitals and laboratories. It is one of the most common microfluidics applications in the market.

2. Fluidic components used in diagnostic equipment

Diagnostic equipment is the most typical instrument in medical equipment, especially IVD instruments, it benefits a lot for the development of the health of humans. Fast and accurate tests are the most important factors for the fluid control equipment, which is why our product series are very popular to be mounted in it, common requirement equipment usually chooses small footprint peristaltic pumps to deliver fluids in a small volume and flow range, but for some high-level equipment, high accuracy microfluidic syringe pumps are necessary to move fluids from microliters to milliliters. The medical field is a very wide industry but medical equipment for analysis is a very professional area that has high technology requirements, especially in programming and prototyping of fluidic systems. Most manufacturers also produce some medical reagents together with the production line of medical instruments, because reagents are also needed from the market in large quantities, especially in hospitals, labs, and R&D centers. The types of reagents vary from different medical equipment, some devices can produce only one reagent, and some devices can produce several different reagents, it depends on what kind of fluidic components to use, multiple channels pumps and valves will make multiple reagents realizable.
