NanoSpin 20 (Multi-Pump Lab-Scale Electrospinning)

NANOSPIN 20

NanoSpin 20

📄 Brief Description

The NanoSpin 20 (Multi-Pump Lab-Scale Electrospinning Machine) is engineered for controlled, multi-material nanofiber fabrication using three or more polymer solutions. 🧪 With three independent syringe pumps, it enables simultaneous electrospinning or electro-spraying, producing composite or blended nanofibers with customizable properties.

This versatile system supports both electrospinning and electro-spraying, making it ideal for tissue engineering, drug delivery, filtration, and other advanced applications. All process parameters—including injection rate, spinning distance, collector drum speed, temperature, and humidity—are controlled via a 7” touchscreen panel for precision and ease of use.

🔍 Unique Capabilities

💉 Three independently controlled syringe pumps enable the simultaneous processing of multiple polymer solutions, allowing the fabrication of advanced composite and blended nanofibers. ⚙️ Three scanning systems, three distance adjusters, and three high-voltage power supplies provide precise control over each spinning position for maximum flexibility. 🚀 Compared to a conventional single-pump system, NanoSpin 20 delivers up to three times higher production capacity while maintaining exceptional process accuracy. 🧪 The system supports both electrospinning and electro-spraying, enabling the production of multifunctional nanofibers and advanced material structures. 💊 For example, a polymer matrix can be electrospun from one nozzle while a drug, nanoparticle, or bioactive agent is simultaneously deposited through electro-spraying from another nozzle.
