EASYCHEM reactors

EASYCHEM pilot scale reactors are complete reaction systems on a freestanding movable frame. It is an intermediate solution between industrial and lab design. This modular system allows for different components to be assembled according to specific customer requirements, thus ensuring the utmost flexibility level for users.

Suitable for both standard laboratory needs and scale up/research activities. Thanks to its compact size and trolley structure, it can be easily transported or placed under a walk-in hood.

This multipurpose equipment is ideal for mixing and dissolving corrosive acid or basic liquids and/or solids, for different kinds of reactions (e.g., crystallization reactions, polymerization reactions) and for use in many other applications.
