Roller Pump

A roller pump is a device used to move fluids by compressing flexible tubing with a rotating wheel or roller. As the roller presses the tube against a stationary surface, it pushes the fluid through the tubing. This mechanism allows precise control of flow rate, making roller pumps ideal for medical applications like blood circulation in dialysis, as well as in industrial processes. They are reliable, capable of handling various fluids, and prevent contamination because the fluid only contacts the inside of the tubing, not the pump mechanism itself.
