GENERAL PURPOSE
MEDICAL DEVICE
PROCESS: CONTROL & REGULATION
The technology used on miniaturised components for fluid control with
on-off operation and proportional or total isolation function, is suitable for
the manufacturing industry because of its low power consumption, light
weight, small dimensions and ergonomic design, these being the main
characteristics of the instruments, devices and machines used in a multitude
of industrial and medical application sectors.
With the devices integrated in control and command systems for the
industrial automation or for the handling of fluids in general, the trend is
towards even smaller dimensions.
With the use of portable instruments that require low power consumption
there is the opportunity and in many cases the need to study fluid dynamic
solutions with more and more miniaturised and performing components.
The proportional technology with low power consumption along with fluid
Biotech or Biotechnology include a wide range of procedures for modifying
living organisms according to human purposes.
The use of biotechnology also includes genetic engineering as well as cell
and tissue culture technologies.
Biotech Diagnostic & Analytical instrumentation provides laboratory test
demonstrating the presence or identification, the quality and the quantity of
the substances in organisms or drugs.
These procedures are useful and indispensable to determinate the therapy
The integration of the use of fluid-dynamic components with equipments
for pneumatic automation is essential for the realization of machines and
instruments. Many specific sectors need advanced applications that require
innovative components and technologies.
It is the single component inserted in a control and actuation system
that determines the effective technical and quality level of the machines,
instruments or devices inserted in a technologically new and winning context.
The fluid-dynamic components, called in this way as they were built to control
and handle all types of liquid and gaseous fluids, but also identified as valves
and solenoid valves, are often inserted in an automated pneumatic or
electro-pneumatic system.
A medical device is an instrument, apparatus, implant or other similar which
is intended for use in the diagnostics of disease or other conditions, or
treatment, mitigation and prevention of disease or pain.
Medical device include a wide range of products varying in complexity and
application.
FLUID CONTROL is classified as one of the basic technologies in medical
technology and related sectors, due to the fact that the substances are
primarily present in liquid and gaseous form.
The logical requirement for the components and solenoid valves for this
sector is:
- Media isolation
- Small internal volume and overall dimensions
- Use of inert and compatible materials
- Low power consumption
- Proportional control
The control and regulation of fluids, either liquid or gaseous, demand
increasingly more sophisticated and technologically advanced components
as their application needs are ever more sophisticated and modern.
The sectors that require a greater use of solenoid valves, for example, are in
continuous evolution and expansion.
The use of solenoid valves is often determined by factors such as safety,
ecology or the durability of machines, instruments and equipment operating
in the most diverse sectors, as the fluids to be controlled can be toxic or
aggressive or require high speed interventions. Fluid dynamics is the field
of mechanics that studies the laws of the dynamics of liquids and gases.
The solenoid valves are the elements that intercept, control or regulate within
a circuit or a system - the flow of fluids automatically to transmit power, but
above all to supply equipments with a low power consumption. An industrial
process is made up of a series of units integrated among themselves in a
rational way with the global aim to convert and/or manipulate, in the most
isolation functions applied on miniaturised solenoid valves handling and
controlling gases and liquids allow the construction of for example portable
and pocket devices for analysis or taking measurements.
The progress in the field of biotechnology and electronics has enabled the
miniaturisation of previously very bulky and expensive equipment and we are
now able to perform complex chemical and mechanical operations on the
surface of a single, specifically functionalized chip.
The Micro-dosing or dispensing applications involve the use of micro-
components, but with high precision in implementing its function.
Of particular importance is the possibility to apply a defined quantity of fluid
of low and medium viscosity exactly where required, in a quick, constant and
repeatable way.
of disease and to discover new drugs.
Camozzi designs, develops and assembles components and equipment
to supply specialized fluidic and electronic solutions to manufacturers of
diagnostic and analytical instruments.
The expertise and experience of our technicians allow us to offer fully
customized solutions based on a large range of solenoid valves for the
construction of fluid control systems which apply advanced and innovative
technologies.
The integrated use of valves and solenoid valves, that in most of the cases
are with 2 or 3 ways, complete an automated machine, a system or an
instrument that for their intrinsic functions need, besides the movement by
means of actuators and solenoid valves for the relative control and handling
of liquid fluids different than compressed air.
Today, in many sectors we can find examples of integrated components for
fluids and pneumatic components, one serving the other or vice versa.
Typical examples can be frequently found in the Packaging and Textile
sector, in Sterilization or Pasteurization machines, in Machine Tools, in
commercial vehicles, in plastic injection machinery, in food processing
systems, in conditioning machines, etc.
Medical equipment employs many different technologies to customize
solutions in terms of functionality, dimensions, and the overall configuration
of the components which must comply with material compatibility and
specific legislation relating to the Life Science sector.
Our internal laboratories are fully equipped with the most modern instruments
to conduct application and customer specific tests.
economic way, certain raw materials or items in a finished product.
The automation, the control and the regulation of the process are essential
for the safe and profitable functioning of petrochemical equipment, equipment
in the food and pharmaceutical industry, and equipment for water treatment
and purification.
The solenoid valves operating in an integrated and retroactive system
with flow sensors, pressure sensors and measuring instruments have an
essential role in order to:
- Stabilize the process
- Assure the regularity of the process
- Minimize the environmental impact
- Obtain the requested quality
of the finished product
- Obtain the desired production rate
- Optimize the functioning of the process
