Enabling High-Volume, Low-Cost Micropump Production

Scalable. Affordable. Designed for real-world manufacturing.

Why Cost-Efficient Design Matters

In high-volume applications, performance alone isn’t enough. In diagnostics, life science, and industrial environments, you need components that are affordable, repeatable, and ready to scale.

The BP7 micropump is more than a reliable fluidic actuator. It’s a low-cost micropump that’s optimized for mass production, from small pilot runs to tens of thousands of units per month.

Every design and process choice, from materials to testing workflows, supports efficient batch manufacturing at high yield and low unit cost.

Modular Architecture Enables Fast Assembly

The BP7 uses a stackable, modular design, making it ideal for streamlined production processes.

• Components like valve sheets or actuator assemblies can be pre-fabricated and easily stacked during final assembly
• The modularity shortens cycle times and simplifies automation
• Enables parallelized assembly, perfect for high-throughput workflows

This makes the BP7 not just scalable, but smart to scale.

Laser Welding Instead of Adhesives

Laser welding replaces glue-based processes, which brings several advantages:

• Cycle times measured in seconds
• No curing delays or messy application
• No material waste
• Higher reproducibility and cleaner interfaces

The transparent housing of the low-cost micropump is optimized for laser alignment, making the process precise and automation-friendly.

Minimal Manual Handling

Manual labor is one of the biggest cost drivers in assembly. The BP7 was designed to reduce it.

• Subcomponents such as actuator sheets and cable harnesses are delivered preassembled
• Manual effort is limited to placement and visual inspection
• Most steps are automation-compatible, allowing scale-up without proportional labor cost increases

This makes the BP7 an ideal low-cost micropump for OEM integration.

Built-in, Scalable Quality Control

The BP7 supports efficient and traceable quality control, without slowing down production.

• 100% end-of-line testing ensures reliability
• Automated leak and flow testing with real-time data logging
• Full batch traceability via serial number and QR code

This makes it suitable for regulated environments like medical devices, diagnostics, and other compliance-driven industries.

Materials and Design for Manufacturability (DFM)

Every design choice serves production efficiency:

• Thermoplastics are chosen for injection molding and micro-machining
• The transparent main body is compatible with laser welding and visual QC
• The BP7’s design supports low part variation and high yield manufacturing

These features make it a truly low-cost micropump that’s ready for industrial scale.
