Infusion Therapy

Precise and controlled delivery of medications, fluids and nutrients is achieved using infusion therapy devices such as syringe pumps, IV infusion pumps and insulin pumps. These devices are used in both clinical settings, for cancer or emergency treatments, along with home environments for diabetes or chronic disease management.

Stepping Motors drive electric pumps that dispense precise volumes of solution directly into a patient’s blood stream or tissue. As home infusion therapies continue to grow, pump designs are getting smaller to accommodate portable devices. Our local engineering team can assist with design and development to meet your application performance and size requirements.

How we add value

Insulin pump technology has advanced in recent years due to improvements in wireless technology and dosing algorithms. It is now possible to create a “closed-loop” system, also known as an artificial pancreas, for measuring blood sugar levels and automatically adjusting the required insulin in real time. These systems allow patients to have more freedom and flexibility in managing their diabetes.

MinebeaMitsumi engineers can design custom machined components or mechanical assemblies for use in medical pumps. We can combine a custom assembly with our other technologies, like strain gauge elements, to create sensors to detect occlusions within tubing. Occlusions, such as air bubbles or bent tubing, can be dangerous to the patient. Integrating sensors to trigger alarms for caregivers are critical for infusion therapy devices.

Precision Mechanical Assembly

Custom assemblies using NMB ball bearings are available to reduce design time and manufacturing cost. Our expert design engineers work with you to create a design that is high performance and cost effective.

Force Sensor

Force Sensors are used to measure the extrusion pressure within syringe pumps to determine if medicine is being delivered at the right dosage and time interval.

Hybrid Stepping Motor

Hybrid Stepper Motors provide reliable, precision positioning syringe and infusion pump movement.

Power Supply

As medical devices adapt to enable portable and remote capabilities, reliable power supplies will be of utmost importance. We improved our power supply efficiency and have developed unique circuit technology that device users can depend on.

Tactile Switch

Tactile switches provide touch feedback to users when they are interacting with a device to lower or increase dosage levels. Mitsumi tactile switches are available in both tape/reel format or customizes sheets depending on our customer's needs.

USB-C Connector

Compact, portable medical devices require regular charging. They also need to be able to withstand common environmental factors such as water and dust. We manufacturer IP68-rated USB-C connectors that deliver a reliable charging experience for users.

Strain Gauge

Strain gauge elements provide very high precision measurement of pressure in medical pumps. Our strain gauges are often used to detect occlusion or air bubbles in medical pumps.

Miniature PM Stepping Motor

Wearable devices need to be compact and lightweight. At 3.4mm in diameter, our Miniature PM motors are easily integrated into wearable insulin pumps for precise insulin delivery.
