To meet the great variety of needs from its customers, USIFROID has designed its production-scale freeze-dryers following the modular concept: each machine is an assembly of pre-validated modules which are based on proven technologies and designs.
Freeze-dryers have been divided into different parts, for which standard modules have been developed :
- Chamber and shelves
- Condenser
- Stoppering system
- Refrigeration system
- Vacuum system
- Electrical panel and control system
Using fully integrated computer aided design, the whole freeze-dryer is rapidly defined. This way, USIFROID can build in minimum time a reliable freeze-dryer which fully matches the customer’s requirements.
The modular range SMH is also the best solution to accommodate specific layout arrangements while maintaining an easy access for the maintenance.
In addition to those standards modules, some applications may require specific development related to the lyophilisation process, or to the environment of the freeze-dryer. Based
on its modular range of products, USIFROID can propose fully engineered solutions to match special requirements.
