A newly patented pump from Sciperio, the R&D arm of nScrypt, is built to let additive manufacturing (AM) systems dispense materials with viscosities above 1 million centipoise, a range Sciperio says has been difficult for conventional dispensing systems to handle without defects.

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) issued Patent No. 12,654,396 B2 for the pump, titled “Pump for Additive Manufacturing,” which nScrypt says underpins its QuantiHelix dispensing platform and is already built into the company’s production systems.

Sciperio claims direct write manufacturing (DWM) processes often rely on challenging materials such as conductive inks, adhesives, epoxies, and biological materials. Conventional dispensing systems, the company says, struggle to maintain consistent flow at th
