Fluidnatek LE-500

Product Overview

Instrument of Choice for Pilot Scale Volumes & Beta-release Commercialization

For scientists and engineers needing pre-production volumes and production-quality materials. The LE-500 can be used in advanced development projects, beta-release, and other pre-market introduction activities.

Maximize Production

Horizontal, vertical, and angled sample processing enables high throughput and fabrication of complex structures

Full Environmental Control

Unique HEPA-filtered unit provides control over increasing or decreasing temperature (18-45°C), relative humidity (10-80%), and airflow (90-180 m3/h)

Needle-based or Needle-less

Develop samples with needle-based or needle-less emitters, or both simultaneously

Pilot-scale Production

Process up to 8 Liters of solution with up to 370 needles to generate pilot-scale quantities of electrospun or electrosprayed material

LE-500 Features

The LE-500 tightly controls humidity and temperature, measures sample thickness in real-time, and supports the use of a roll-to-roll collector. In addition, users can employ up to 370 emitters to produce electrospun fibers or electrosprayed particles, making this unit a powerful tool for product commercialization. Multiple optional upgradable features to improve production can also be implemented at any time. It employs the same core technology as Bioinicia’s full GMP production plant. This unit is capable to be ISO-13485 for medical devices and can operate at ISO-7 clean conditions.

  • Pilot-scale production unit for product commercialization
  • Touchscreen controls
