Fluid passing through a standard valve encounters five key events during its journey through a fluid diverting device. They are: a) the entry through a flow-path in the stator, b) a sharp and tortuous turn moving out of the stator onto the rotor, c) its journey through a flow-path on the rotor, d) a second tortuous turn moving back into a second flow-path in the stator, and e) the exit out of the stator. The tortuosity in the fluidic motion rises sharply at every turns making a fluid diverting device prone to clogging sharply reducing the diverter's ability to operate under pressurized environment especially for high flow-rate applications. TSL’s revolutionary fluid management technology (US 11,680,955) uses gradually bending movable flow-paths inside the three-dimensional boundary of the rotor (as opposed to the sharp bends at the interface where the rotor meets the stator) transforming what a fluid diverting device can deliver. Welcome to the TurnWise technology, an outside-the-box concept using inside-the-rotor fluid movements. To learn more about the TurnWise Technology, reach out to us from the Contacts link.

Imagine yourself travelling with a fluid stream that enters a fluid management device. This is what you see when you approach the flow-paths near the rotor, a traffic chaos. The near perpendicular turn ahead at the stator-rotor junction forces you to slow down. There is no guarantee whether you will make a successful turn in time. Fortunately, your experience can be improved; so is your fluid management workflow.

Welcome to the 21st century. We have reimagined the impossible by paving a new way of moving fluids inside the movable portion of the fluid management device and reduce tortuosity in the fluidic motion.

Are you still wondering about what else can be done using the TurnWise technology beyond just reducing the tortuosity in the fluidic motion?
Well, there are a myriad of posibilities. Contact us to discuss what's in your mind.
The standard form includes a rotary valve consisting of (1) a stator of 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12-port configurations, distributed uniformly on the stator, (2) a rotor that connects the adjacent ports using TurnWise flow-paths that are inside the three-dimensional boundary of the rotor, and (3) the drive that allows you to actuate the rotor either from an hand-held controller or from a remote controlling arrangement.
The custom form includes a rotary valve consisting of (1) a stator of 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12-port configurations, distributed uniformly on the stator, (2) a rotor that sets workflow-specific fluid communication using TurnWise flow-paths that are inside the three-dimensional boundary of the rotor, and (3) the drive that allows you to actuate the rotor either from an hand-held controller or from a remote controlling arrangement.

Total Synthesis Ltd., (TSL) a fine-chemical and contract manufacturing company, has been active since 1998 assisting a host of pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and electronics manufacturers in their discovery and process optimization programs around the world. The company enriched its core manufacturing expertise with state-of-the-art fluid manipulation technologies enabling its customer-base to access the latest on-demand manufacturing tools and PAT devices. Along the way, TSL identified existing technological gap in the PAT field between the current capabilities of the manufacturing sector and its asks. A common ask in all of the technological needs is in the ability to effectively manage fluids including the ones that are generally viewed as hazardous inside fluid diverting devices. TSL filed its first patent (US 9,579, 625) in 2013 on a PAT enabled reactor that allows chemists to perform in-process checks (IPCs) without altering critical process parameters of the process. TSL filed a second patent (US 10,583,432) in 2017 enabling state-of-the-art fluid diverting devices for effectively managing solid particulates, a capability that drew attention of leading instrument manufacturers around the world. In 2021, TSL revolutionized the art of fluid management by introducing world’s first multi-functional fluid diverting device (US 11,680,955) that allows non-tortuous passage of hazardous fluids paving a new avenue for the next-generation fluid management systems using rotary valves.
One of the key objectives of TSL automation stems from our desire to minimize the consumption of chemicals in the manufacturing and PAT space with lab-on-valve solutions. We strive to assist our collaborators reducing carbon footprints through innovative hardware and software solution. Our collaborative and inclusive business model ensures that our current and future turnkey solutions accommodate our customer's needs and asks to the best of our abilities.
