Electrifying Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

Faster, more uniform freeze-drying. LyoWave builds RF-assisted lyophilization, thawing, and thermal imaging systems for pharmaceutical manufacturing, starting at lab and pilot scale.

Why it matters

Freeze-drying keeps medicines stable for years. The process takes days.

Lyophilization lets drugs be stored and shipped without deep-chill freezers, but a single batch can take days or weeks. LyoWave heats product directly with tunable RF energy, so drying and thawing are faster and more uniform.

01

Speed

Accelerate your freeze-drying process while improving drying rate and uniformity.

02

Flexibility

Retrofits to lab and pilot-scale freeze dryers from any manufacturer, given an appropriate door and sanitary ports.

03

Visibility

Pair with LyoVision™ for batch-wide product temperature data that supports process development and scale-up decisions.
