Step into Cognitive Manufacturing
The IMA Ever‑Evolving System invites you into a new era of manufacturing.
Advanced. Mini. Fast.
Freeze-drying technology comes in all sizes and Minifast is the ideal size for R&D requirements of a laboratory environment. Minifast is a laboratory solution designed according to the same technical performance and quality standards as a production-scale lyophiliser.
The product is available in Minifast 04 and Minifast 10 configurations, with shelf areas of 0.4 and 1.1 m2.
Product shelves are designed and manufactured using the IMA Life patented FUSION™ design to enhance performance, reduce operating costs and increase reliability.
Production plant
IMA Life
Pilot scale for R&D and small production batches.
Rectangular chamber in AISI 304L or AISI 316L.
Shelf areas available from 0.4 m2 and 1.1 m2.
Ice condenser ultimate temperature of -80°C.
Automatic pre-aeration with Air or N2.
Ready to be integrated with KRYOSEQ LAB® for nucleation control.
PAT tools for better process understanding and optimization.
Lyomaster Scada control system.
Minifast ice condenser capacity range from 8 kg to 20 kg, with minimum condensing temperatures of -85°C as standard.
Minifast shelves are designed and manufactured in-house with IMA Life’s patented FUSION™ technology, to ensure higher quality and enhance process reliability. The FUSION™ FUSION PLUS” shelves are lighter and more resistant than conventional solutions and offer enhanced heat transfer properties.
