ÄKTAprocess™ - Systems for process scale-up, and large-scale manufacturing

ÄKTAprocess™ is a an automated liquid chromatography system built for process scale-up and large-scale biopharmaceutical manufacturing. The proven design has been verified during development and can be user configured to meet specific process demands. ÄKTAprocess is the obvious choice of system to use when scaling up processes developed on smaller ÄKTAexplorer™ and ÄKTApilot™ systems. ÄKTAprocess is a versatile platform providing thousands of configuration possibilities. The system is available in three flow rate ranges that extend up to 1800 l/h for large volume manufacturing.
Features and benefits Versatile configuration with UNICORN™ control software. Post-purchase configuration increasing usability and lifespan. Traceable USP Class VI materials. Intelligent packing of AxiChrom™ columns. Full regulatory documentation and service.
