LAB1ST Thin Film Evaporator, also known as wiped film evaporator, is a specialized piece of equipment used for the efficient evaporation and concentration of heat-sensitive materials, particularly in industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and food processing.
The thin film evaporator is designed to provide a thin layer of the substance to be evaporated on a heated surface, enabling rapid and gentle evaporation at low temperatures, which helps to minimize thermal degradation of the product.
