Basics
- This page goes over the existing projects, and the potential for an OSE Standard Design for a Peristaltic Pump
Minimum Viable Product
- For the non-medical applications OSE is interested in, a moderate flow rate is desirable
- ie not miniscule amounts, short of those medical uses, or some Scientific Uses Lab Scale devices etc, not Pilot Plant level stuff)
- This can probably be maximum Flow Rate of 250-1000 mL/Min
- Using normal NEMA Stepper Motors is desirable
- Using standard Silicone Tubing (or Latex Tubing in applications where that is not an issue) Sizes is a must
- Either having the flow directly controlled by an Arduino + Arduino Shield / Breakout Board or even just a Breadboard, a Custom PCB , or having this be an easy future option via some sort of common existing Electrical Connector / port is a must
Existing Open Source Designs
Internal Links
- Devices this Technology Enables
- Open Source Drink Dispensing Robot / Open Source Soda Fountain / Open Source Cocktails Machine etc
- Open Source Infusion Pump
- Open Source Fuel Additive Injection Systems / Open Source Fuel Blending Systems and similar devices, although depending on volume being dispensed / Flow Rate etc, a Venturi Effect Mixer may be used
