STEER HMES OMICRON 10 [MINI]

offers the best platform for Universities and Pharmaceutical Companies doing hard core research on hot melt extrusion on NCE and/or applications requiring high potent API. OMICRON 10 is designed to handle very low volumes. The option of changing process section with four different Do/Di (1.27,1.42,1.55,1.71) ratios to vary the shear rate makes OMICRON 10 the best extruder platform for pharmaceutical research.

STEER HMES OMICRON 12 is an excellent extruder for conducing feasibility/proof of concept studies in pharmaceutical research. With micro feeder and combinational downstream ancillaries, OMICRON 12 is a complete solution for scale up studies for the drug development. OMICRON 12 is well-known to process most of the excipients used in pharma research.

Key features

• Originally developed to support the growth of pharmaceutical research utilizing PLGA, a costly excipient approved by the FDA for oral and parenteral sustained release applications
• Small footprint of only 650L x 350W x 300H and less than 45kg, the extruder easily fits on a laboratory bench for portability and flexibility of use
• Effective in handling small batch quantities -10g to 15g
• Novel design features eliminate the need for complex procedures to clean and maintain the extruder
• All service components are easily disassembled and reassembled manually without the use of special tools
• Unlike other HME "micro“ extruders rated at similar throughput rates, the OMICRON 10 MINI is truly scalable to larger HME extruders
