SMART Freeze-Dryer Technology.
SMART Freeze-Dryer Technology is a patented system that puts the experience of the world’s top lyophilization scientists into an easy-to-use cycle development tool. Developed exclusively with leading academics at The University of Connecticut and Purdue University, this technology is available on the LyoStar II freeze-dryer (including a retrofit option for existing LyoStar II systems).
SMART Freeze-Dryer technology eliminates the trial-and-error approach normally involved in developing new lyophilization cycles. It enables experts and novices alike to develop new cycles quickly, while also ensuring that those cycles are elegant and efficient.
The SMART tools provide instant feedback on important product data — such as product resistance, heat flow, and product thickness — that was previously unavailable.
