Techniques - Pumps and pumping

Encynova designs and manufactures superior fluid control systems for a broad range of metering and dispensing applications.

The revolutionary Travcyl™ pump design provides exceptional accuracy and control for a variety of dispensing and low-flow metering uses. The pharmaceutical, medical, and biotech industries employ these fluid systems for manufacturing, process control and automation. The inks/dyes, chemical processing, and food industries use Encynova systems for liquid filling, dispensing, fluid processing and fluid metering.

Encynova's proprietary technologies combined with the expertise of an internal R&D team enable customization and integration of fluid control systems for the most effective fluid control solution available.

The Encynova design is an internally sealed, valveless pump technology, which integrates the durability of a piston pump with the accuracy of a syringe pump. Now you can move, measure, and control liquid with one compact module. Versatile control options enable fast, effective integration into your system. Excellent repeatability and millions of cycles of piston life provide reliable performance for OEM applications.

A single, offset crank drives precision pistons inside one, two, or four liquid cylinders. As the pistons move fluid in and out of the cylinders, the cylinders slide from side to side, from inlet port to outlet port. The internally sealed flow path eliminates the need for external valves. User calibration is not necessary. Operating as a continuous-drive, multiple-syringe device, the Encynova System automatically refills and empties each cylinder in succession.

Encynova provides liquid control systems for precision dispensing and metering and unlike basic metering pumps, Encynova's systems provide pumping capability, fluid measurement, and flow control all in one compact module. These valve less, digitally controlled systems integrate easily into manufacturing processes, lab environments, OEM applications, and custom projects.

From managing controlled substances such as Methadone, to filling four-color inkjet cartridges in an automated production facility, Encynova's systems afford maximum control in a compact package.

Some other applications are: Dispensing whitening gel, Micro-titer plate filling, Dispensing liposomal creams for drug delivery, Filling syringes, Dispensing preservatives, Spraying enzymes and Chemical prep before etching.

Some examples of compatible fluids are Sodium Hydroxide, Hydrochloric Acid, Inks and dyes, Isopropyl alcohol, Polymers, Viscous materials, Reagents and Solvents.

Encynova's pump systems can handle a variety of fluids without damage and can be cleaned using a simple clean-in-place (CIP) flush or a steam-in-place (SIP) procedure.
