Micro Annular Gear Pumps Scoop Prestigious Award
|
 |
|
The highly innovative range of HNP micro annular gear pumps have recently been awarded
as a winner in the “365 Landmarks in the Land of Ideas” contest which is hosted
by a German branding initiative whose patron is the German President Horst Köhler.

The initiative highlights innovation in business, environment and science and received
over 2,000 applications for the 2009 award.
Represented in the UK by pump specialists Michael Smith Engineers, HNP pumps are
used primarily in applications where fast and highly precise dosage of liquids is
required. Typically this is in analytical instrumentation, biotechnology, chemical
processing, production systems and fuel cells.
Exports to markets outside of Germany account for over 70% of total turnover. This
includes notable successes in developing sales in the field of analytical instrumentation
where a new generation of robots undertake liquid sample handling. Future high-tech
applications for HNP pumps are being developed, such as dosing tasks for solvents
such as conductive and semi-conductive polymers, handling organometallic precursors
as well as the application of polishing suspensions.
