Products & Services
Microdrop provides precision dispensing systems in the pl and nl range, MD-E-5000 and Autodrop control units, plus full-service support from concept to installation.
Autodrop Gantry
Need more than a microdispensing solution? We offer complete range of automated printing systems—from compact table-top systems for R&D and small-scale production to fully customized setups.
Our technologies support diverse fields: microlubrication, printed electronics, 3D printing, microarrays, and biosensor applications in life sciences.
Integratable Microdrop Dispensing System
MD-E-5000 Microdrop Dispensing System is a versatile, ready-to-use solution for high-performance microdispensing applications. Ideal for precise liquid handling in research, development, and production environments
Autodrop Pipettes: Dispensing Aqueous Solutions in the Picoliter Range
Autodrop Pipettes from microdrop Technologies offer high-precision liquid handling based on advanced piezoelectric inkjet printing. Fluids are aspirated directly through the nozzle tip into a glass capillary, enabling rapid liquid exchange from multiple sources. A built-in piezo actuator generates a shock wave within the fluid, ejecting droplets with exceptional accuracy and consistency.
Key Features:
Drop-on-Demand Dispensing: Ideal for applications like biosensor or microarray production and high-throughput screening and spotting
Fast Liquid Change Enables: efficient aspiration from sources such as microtiter plates and supports automated cleaning.
Large Volume range available from up to 0.75 ml to 34 µl with minimal dead volume (~14 µl)
Glass Capillary Design: Enables automated cleaning and reduces cross-contamination risks
Compatible with both the MD-E-5000 dispensing system and automated workflows.
Autodrop Pipettes are engineered for demanding life science applications, including biosensor production, tissue engineering, and Lab-on-a-Chip system
Microdrop Dispenser Heads for Printing Pico-Liter Drops of Various Materials
Microdrop Dispenser Heads are based on advanced piezo-driven inkjet printing technology. An integrated piezo actuator generates a shock wave within the fluid chamber, ejecting precise droplets from the nozzle — all without contact.
Key Features:
Drop-on-Demand Dispensing: Ideal for printing over larger areas with pinpoint accuracy
Large Reservoir: Handles fluid volumes up to 8 ml, enabling long walk-away times for automated workflows
Thermal Control: Heatable or coolable nozzle tips to accommodate a wide range of liquid viscosities
Rear-Loading Fluid Reservoir: Ensures clean and efficient dispensing
High Durability: Lifetimes exceeding 100 billion cycles
Compatible with both the MD-E-5000 dispensing system and automated workflows.
Nanojet Piezovalve- Nanoliter High-Precision Non-Contact Dispensing
microdrop’s Nanojet Piezovalves are engineered for ultra-precise, non-contact dispensing across a wide viscosity range — from low-viscosity fluids to hot melt adhesives (up to 2,000,000 mPas). These valves are ideal for applications in microelectronics, medical technology, and semiconductor manufacturing.
Key Features:
Piezoelectric Trigger Pulse: Ensures highly accurate droplet generation
Flexible Integration: Operates standalone or within Microdrop’s Autodrop Positioning System
Wide Volume Range: Models available for fluids from 5 nl to over 200 µl per cycle
Thermal Control: Operates between 10 °C and 50 °C
Robust & Stable: Designed for 24/7 industrial use
Modular Design: Easily exchangeable nozzles for different med
