COMMERCIAL FREEZE DRYERS FOR RESEARCH & PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

Develop, Test and Validate Freeze-Drying Processes with Equipment Designed to Support Scale-Up to Commercial Production.

Built For Process Development 

Whether you are developing a new formulation, evaluating freeze-drying feasibility, refining cycle parameters, or preparing for larger scale production, Parker systems give you the flexibility to test and adjust your process. 

Use freeze drying to evaluate:

  • Cycle Time and Process efficiency 
  • Product Temperature and Drying Behavior
  • Moisture Removal
  • Recipe and Parameter adjustments
  • Product Quality and Consistency
  • Repeatability 

From Development to Production

One of the biggest challenge in R & D is developing a process that works in the lab but becomes difficult to reproduce when production increases. 

Parker equipment helps reduce the gap. 

The Summit uses Parker's commercial-grade operating software, giving development teams access to the same recipe flexibility and process feedback used on larger Parker systems. That makes it easier to establish processes with commercial production in mind from the beginning. 

 

More Capacity Than a Typical Benchtop System

For research groups that have outgrown small lab freeze dryers, the Summit provides a step between bench top and full commercial production.

  • 97.5lbs Wet Weight Capacity 

  • 15 Trays

The Summit can support larger trials, multiple samples, pilot production, and repeat without relying on non commercial components.

Why R & D Teams Use Parker
  • Flexible recipe development
  • Detailed process feedback
  • Larger pilot-scale capacity
  • Repeatable operating system 
  • Commercial- grade controls and components
  • Seamless transition scaling to larger Parker unit
  • US based support and service
Applications For Research & Development 

Food & Beverage Development: Test ingredients, formulas, textures, stability, and processing.

 Pet Food & Animal Nutrition: Develop treats, toppers, diets, and specialty formulas before production.

Nutraceuticals & Ingredients: Test powders, extracts, cultures, botanicals, and other moisture-sensitive products.

Develop The Process Before You Scale It

Commercial equipment selection should start with the product and the process, not just the desired batch size. Parker can help you evaluate your product, expected production requirements and freeze-drying objectives to determine whether the Summit or a larger Parker system is the right fit.

“There’s really no room for error and there's no room for variability. We need the same results every single time, and that's when a system like the Parker unit really comes in handy. Having the ability to dial in all of the different parameters in the freeze drying recipe are key for us.”
