Shear-Free Pumping for Pharmaceuticals, Biotech, and Solvent Handling

Tesla Disk Pumps™ deliver smooth, non-agitating flow for delicate compounds, solvents, coatings, and bio-based materials—without shear, foaming, or cross-contamination.

Built for Purity. Engineered for Control.

For solvents, coatings, cell cultures, or media prep, Tesla Disk Pumps™ maintain material integrity while offering superior chemical resistance. An excellent fit for regulated environments where flow consistency and cleanliness are critical.

Common Media We Handle:

  • Alcohols, solvents, and glycols
  • Nutrient media and cell cultures
  • Emulsions and pharmaceutical suspensions
  • Coatings, gels, and thickeners
  • Active compounds and aseptic fluids

Industry Challenges — and How Tesla Disk Pumps Solve Them

Pumps in pharmaceutical and biotech settings must do more than move fluids—they must preserve compound integrity, meet strict cleanliness standards, and operate without introducing shear, air, or contamination. Tesla Disk Pumps™ are built to meet those challenges head-on.

  • Protecting product integrity

    Cell cultures, media, and delicate formulations are highly sensitive to shear and agitation. Conventional pumps can damage cells or destabilize suspensions. Tesla Disk Pumps use a shear-free laminar flow that preserves biological viability and formulation stability.

  • Regulatory compliance

    Pharmaceutical manufacturing requires absolute cleanliness and validation-ready equipment. Tesla Disk Pumps are available in stainless steel hygienic designs compatible with CIP/SIP, supporting GMP and FDA compliance.

  • Chemical resistance

    Solvents, coatings, and cleaning agents can corrode traditional pump materials. Tesla Disk Pumps can be built from corrosion-resistant alloys and stainless steel, ensuring long service life in chemically aggressive environments.

  • Consistent flow control

    Many pharmaceutical processes depend on steady, pulse-free delivery of fluids to ensure accurate dosing, coating uniformity, and media quality. Disk pumps deliver smooth laminar flow without pulsation.

Application Highlights in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

From the drill site to the refinery, Tesla Disk Pumps™ support critical oil and gas processes at every stage. Whether it’s moving thick slurries, protecting delicate catalysts, or handling gas-laden streams, our pumps are built to perform—no matter where they’re installed.

Application Area Benefits How Tesla Pumps Excel
Solvent Handling Corrosion-resistant design for harsh chemicals Superior material compatibility for long-term reliability
Coating Solutions Uniform flow for tablet and capsule coating Laminar, pulse-free delivery ensures even coatings
Cell Cultures & Media Preserve viability and stability Low-shear pumping maintains cell and protein integrity
Buffer & Media Prep Consistency in mixing and transfer Smooth flow supports precise formulation and reduces foaming
Aseptic & Cleanroom Use High cleanliness with CIP/SIP compatibility Meets hygienic and regulatory standards
Waste & Solvent Recovery Handles aggressive residues and solvents Non-clogging, corrosion-resistant design
