Lyophilization Technology
GEA’s LYOVAC® industrial-scale freeze dryers are built to customer specifications and are available with production areas of 1–60 m² and condenser capacities of more than 1000 kg.
The LYOVAC® production-scale freeze dryer is a best-in-class solution for the pharmaceutical industry. In close collaboration with our customers, we design, build and customize them according to specific requirements.
LYOVAC® freeze dryers and their peripherical equipment can be arranged either on one or multiple floors. The condenser can be situated next to the drying chamber or directly underneath it. Either way, it ensures both easy access to the machine parts and complete separation between the cleanroom and the technical area.
A unique feature is the high quality of the in-house manufactured shelves. This is the heart of the machine and ensures an optimal temperature distribution, unform result and, consequently, the essential final product quality.
Several features of the LYOVAC® (see below) support the fastest processing times in the industry, offering increased productivity and commercial benefits.
The LYOVAC® range is also available using GEA’s unique Fast Track manufacturing process. Depending on the complexity of the installation and based on previously completed projects, it’s possible to have a system up and running in less than a year.

Atık azaltımı, GEA olarak bizler için önemlidir ve dondurarak kurutma teknolojisinin gücünden faydalanarak, fazla gıdayı değerli, uzun ömürlü ürünlere dönüştürebiliyor ve böylece atıkları azaltmaya, raf ömrünü uzatmaya ve gelecek nesiller için daha dayanıklı bir gıda tedariki yaratmaya yardımcı olabiliyoruz.
Bitki odaklı faaliyet gösteren Güney Koreli gıda üreticisi Pulmuone, GEA’nın önüne geleneksel çiğnenebilir soğuk (naengmyeon) erişteye modern bir dokunuş katma zorluğunu getirdiğinde, GEA’nın AR&GE uzmanları bu meydan okumaya hazırdı. Daha önceki yöntemlere göre daha az su ve elektrikle üretilen ve ticari açıdan şu an popüler olan bir ürünün geliştirilmesine yardımcı oldular. Sonuç, aynı zamanda yemeğin geleneksel kökenlerine olduğu kadar Pulmuone’nin sağlık, refah ve sürdürülebilirlik köklerine uygundur.
