The pumps and valves being developed by a research team led by Professors Paul Motzki (Foto) and Stefan Seelecke at Saarland University and the Center for Mechatronics and Automation Technology (ZeMA) operate entirely without external motors and consume little energy in the process. The research team is showcasing its latest film-based vacuum pump prototype at this year's Hannover Messe from 31 March to 4 April.
