LM20 Microfluidizer^® Processor

Electrically Powered High Shear Lab-Scale Unit

The LM20 Microfluidizer^® high-pressure processor ensures that 100% of your material undergoes exactly the same treatment, yielding consistently reliable results that include uniform particle and droplet size reduction, submicron emulsions and high-yield cell disruption.

Our unique design converts pressure into shear forces more efficiently than other technologies, delivering superior performance. The LM20’s unique intensifier pump supplies the desired pressure at a constant rate to your materials, driving them through precisely defined, fixed-geometry microchannels within the Interaction Chamber™. The product stream accelerates to high velocities, creating shear rates that are orders of magnitude greater than any other conventional method.

The LM20 Microfluidizer^® benchtop homogenizer can easily and linearly be scaled up to larger volumes.  By operating under the same conditions, our LM20 Microfluidizer^® processor can seamlessly achieve consistent, reliable results on the pilot and production models.

Like all Microfluidizer^® processors, the digitally controlled LM20 excels at efficiently converting high fluid pressures to intense shear forces.
