Nanojet Solenoid Valve

By microdrop GmbH

In the aviation industry, particularly during the assembly of aircraft fuselages, precision and efficiency are paramount. Our Nanojet Solenoid Valve offers an optimal solution for suppliers specializing in the lubrication and cooling of rivet or screw holes during the drilling process. Precise Dispensing – Not a Drop Too Much Thanks to its pressure- and time-controlled system, the Solenoid Valve ensures that the exact required amount of lubricant or coolant is dispensed — no more, no less. This eliminates over-application and the subsequent need for time-consuming cleaning. Precision Through Special Nozzle Geometry Our unique nozzle geometry ensures that the fluid is applied accurately and without overspray. Even when injected at an angle during drilling, the application remains precise, keeping surrounding areas clean. Nanojet Dispensing System - Key Advantages - Optimal Lubrication and Cooling: Fluid is delivered directly into the drill hole, reducing friction and heat generation. - Superior Drilling Quality: Precise lubrication prevents material damage and ensures clean, burr-free holes. - Prevention of Material Swelling: Accurate dosing prevents sensitive materials from being damaged by excess fluid. - Resource Savings: Precise dispensing reduces lubricant and coolant consumption, saving costs and benefiting the environment. - Cleanliness and Efficiency: No post-cleaning of drill holes is required, as the fluid is applied only where needed. - High precision of liquid amount and position - Non-contact dispensing technology

MD-K Micro dispenser heads

MD-K Micro dispenser heads are piezo-driven microdispensers designed for reliable non-contact dispensing of picoliter volumes starting at 20 pl, with a CV ≤ 1%. They support reservoir-based dispensing using storage volumes from 1 to 12 ml. An integrated piezo actuator generates a precisely controlled pressure pulse that induces a shock wave in the dispensing head, which causes a droplet ejection from the nozzle. This mechanism ensures stable droplet formation and accurate volume control across varying dispensing applications. The Gantry ECO, II-S, and II-P microdispensing systems allow the integration of up to four dispenser heads operating in parallel. Depending on the liquid properties, dispenser heads with nozzle heating are available, enabling the dispensing of liquids with viscosities of up to 1000 mPa·s. For demanding applications, the Microdrop High-Temperature Dispenser Head is available, allowing the nozzle tip, tubing, and reservoir to be heated up to 150 °C. This makes the MD-K platform perfectly suitable for temperature-sensitive or highly viscous liquids commonly used in industrial and materials-based processes.

AD-K Autopipettes

AD-K Autopipettes are high-performance ultra-low-volume picoliter microdispensers for precise dispensing in the 20 pl to 500 pl range, with a coefficient of variation (CV) ≤ 1%. Storage volumes ranging from 400 µl to 1 ml support both minimal sample consumption and dispensing without the need for the dispenser refilling. The microdispenser is based on piezo-driven technology, with digitally controlled aspiration and droplet ejection, enabling fast, precise, and repeatable dispensing. Fully controlled droplet formation eliminates the occurrence of satellite droplets. The technology allows dispensing of difficult-to-dispense samples, such as proteins, nucleic acids, or living cells, and samples with high viscosity. When integrated with the Gantry ECO, II-S, or II-P microdispensing systems, up to eight picoliter microdispensers can operate in parallel. The combination of microdispensing systems and AD-K Autopipettes is a perfect match for applications including assay development, screening, microarray printing, biosensor fabrication, lab-on-a-chip, or microfluidic workflows.

Gantry Microdispensing Instruments

Gantry microdispensing systems are modular systems designed for precise ultra-low volume liquid handling from research laboratories to fully automated production environments. With dispensing volumes starting from 20 picoliters, the systems enable precise and reproducible placing of biological samples, reagents, adhesives and functional liquids onto a wide variety of substrates. Built on proven microdispensing technology, Gantry instruments eliminate the need for system liquids, prevent cross-contamination and save the precious samples. Flexible microdispensers support different dispensing applications, viscosities and dispensing patterns, making them suitable for both complex research workflows and high-throughput manufacturing processes. From compact benchtop instruments to fully automated production platforms, the Gantry instruments provide a scalable solution for precision microdispensing.

NanoJet Piezo Dispenser

NanoJet Piezo Dispenser, the dispenser for extremely high-viscous applications up to 2,000,000 mPa·s. The dispenser covers a broad dispensing range from 1 nL to 25 µL, with an expected CV ≤ 2%, and reservoir volumes between 10 and 25 mL. A user-defined valve configuration, combined with a selectable range of nozzles, allows precise adjustment of droplet size and dispensing properties to match the expected printing results. NanoJet Piezo Dispensers are widely used across industries such as microelectronics, medical technology, and semiconductor manufacturing. When integrated with the Gantry II S or II P microdispensing systems, up to four dispensers can be operated in parallel, delivering maximum flexibility and consistency in both R&D and production environments.
