Abstract
Syringe pumps are used in applications such as chemistry, medicine, or microbiology offering high-precision dosing or a way to ease the workload of tedious tasks. Further, high-performance syringe pumps are crucial to automating laboratory tasks. The Perry Pump is demonstrated with syringe sizes ranging from 1–20 mL and includes a reservoir, which enables larger volumes to be used. The lowest volume demonstrated is 20 L at 5.5 L/s, while the largest is 20 mL at 0.145 mL/s. The Perry Pump is designed with the intention of easy to 3D-print, limited metal parts, and a high versatility and tolerance to chemicals.

期刊介绍:
HardwareX is an open access journal established to promote free and open source designing, building and customizing of scientific infrastructure (hardware). HardwareX aims to recognize researchers for the time and effort in developing scientific infrastructure while providing end-users with sufficient information to replicate and validate the advances presented. HardwareX is open to input from all scientific, technological and medical disciplines. Scientific infrastructure will be interpreted in the broadest sense. Including hardware modifications to existing infrastructure, sensors and tools that perform measurements and other functions outside of the traditional lab setting (such as wearables, air/water quality sensors, and low cost alternatives to existing tools), and the creation of wholly new tools for either standard or novel laboratory tasks. Authors are encouraged to submit hardware developments that address all aspects of science, not only the final measurement, for example, enhancements in sample preparation and handling, user safety, and quality control. The use of distributed digital manufacturing strategies (e.g. 3-D printing) is encouraged. All designs must be submitted under an open hardware license.
