An axial piston pump controller for an axial piston pump having a fixed valve plate and a variable displacement is provided. The axial piston pump controller is configured to determine a displacement of the axial piston pump, and to calculate a pump displacement control current to be supplied to the axial piston pump to control the displacement of the axial piston pump. Calculating the pump displacement control current comprises calculating a nominal value for the pump displacement control current based on a rotational speed of the axial piston pump, calculating a pump stiffness adjustment factor based on a pump stiffness control map having as inputs: an output pressure of the axial piston pump; and the estimated pump displacement, and calculating the pump displacement control current to be supplied to the axial piston pump based on the nominal value and the pump stiffness adjustment factor. The controller is further configured to output an instruction to output the calculated pump displacement control current to the axial piston pump in order to control the displacement of the axial piston pump.

A pump system (120) has a central pump unit (110), with which at least one hook-up unit (130). The at least one hook-up unit (130) is from a group of a plurality of hook-up units (130) that can be combined in modular form for setting an operating point of a pump (10) that forms the pump unit (110). A method uses such a hook-up unit (130) in a pump system (120) for setting an operating point of the pump unit (110) thereof. A medical device is provided with such a pump unit (110) or with such a pump unit (110) and at least one hook-up unit (130) combined with the pump unit (110).

A rotary pump for a fluid metering system is provided. The rotary pump reciprocates, and is reversed by a signal from a limit switch that is deflected by an actuator arm on a rotating sleeve of the pump system. The rotary pump includes a plunger and optional stopper formed from a two-shot molding process, and including seals overmolded onto the head of the plunger and the head of the optional stopper.

The present invention relates to a hydraulic pump system including a variable displacement pump that generates an outlet pressure. The hydraulic pump system also includes a control system that decreases a displacement volume of the variable displacement pump in response to an increase in the outlet pressure and increases a displacement volume of the variable displacement pump in response to a decrease in the outlet pressure.

A dispensing pump having a calibration system including a base including an upper base portion having a first end for mounting a motor and a second end and a lower base portion for mounting a pump on a first end and a second end. A hinge pivotally connects the second end of the upper base portion and the second end of the lower base portion. A linear actuator is mounted on the base and includes a drive rod having a coupler secured to an end thereof. The coupler joins the drive rod to a first end of a connecting member. A second end of the connecting member is secured to the lower base portion. An attachment plate attaches the motor to the first end of the upper base portion. The attachment plate extends outwardly from the motor for mounting the linear actuator. A proximity sensor is secured to the base upper position. A flag is secured to the drive rod coupler, wherein the flag moves directly with the drive rod. The flag includes a body and a calibration element projecting therefrom. The calibration element is positionally adjustable relative to the flag body. The calibration element is adapted to activate the proximity sensor when the linear drive is in a home position. The home position is adjustable upon adjustment of the calibration member. An actuation of the linear actuator drives the connecting member causing the lower base portion and upper base portion to pivot with respect to each other about the hinge, thereby changing an angle between the lower base portion and the upper base portion.
