NanoSpin 20
(Multi-Pump Electrospinning Machine)
NanoSpin 20
Brife 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. Compared to the single-pump model, this unit offers three times the production rate while maintaining precise control over multiple materials.
