Basic Lab Unit

The Basic Lab Unit is an easy to use and safe system for production of nanofibrous membranes by electrospinning. lt is composed by:

  • High Voltage Power Supply;
  • Different possibility of Collectors (in this case Drum Collector can roto-sliding);
  • Syringe Pump;
  • Adjustable  Support and Needle Holder.

The system is housed in a transparent theca made of anodized aluminium and polycarbonate. Special care is taken in the choice of materials. The work surface as well as all the parts that compose every collectors type, are electrically inert, to prevent electrical discharges, and solvent-resistant material.

A PLC manages all the operations, and the friendly graphics interface of the touch screen makes the process very easy to set-up and control.

User’s safety is guaranteed by:

  • Exhaust ventilation predisposition;
  • Automatic safety switch for openings;
  • Emergency stop push button;
  • Walls shatterproof.

An internal lamp makes the electrospinning process more visible.

On demand it is possible to conncet a climate system to perform Humidity and Temperature in the electrospinning machine.
