Peristaltic Pumps
Peristaltic pumps work by compressing and relaxing a hose that's positioned between a rotating device and a circular pump housing. Different manufacturers use shoes or rollers to compress the hose. Fluid positioned ahead of the rollers gets pushed forward as the rollers rotate inside the case. The portion of the hose just behind the rollers rebounds to create a vacuum which draws the fluid into the pump.
