Abstract

We proposed an application of a magnetic micromachine for a micropump. When a rotating magnetic field was applied, the machine rotated and pumped a surrounding liquid. As the machine works wirelessly, we can obtain a small and disposable pump. When a plate installed the machine in a fluid channel was set on a stage for generating a rotating magnetic field, the machine worked as the pump. In this system, the flow rate could be controlled by the rotating frequency.
