Biomedical R&D benefits from small, well-controlled batches, fast turnarounds, and production-relevant data. The Thermo Scientific™ HAAKE™ MiniLab 3 micro-compounder pairs conical, fully intermeshing twin screws with precise multi-zone temperature control and real-time torque/pressure readouts to deliver repeatable results from just a few milliliters of material—ideal when APIs, excipients, or specialty additives are scarce or costly. Easy filling/cleaning and a compact footprint support safe handling of reactive or moisture-sensitive blends.

Built for longevity, the MiniLab’s wear- and corrosion-resistant barrel and screws provide stable mixing performance over years of use. Vari-Batch™ operation (≈2–5 mL) and a recirculation/bypass valve give fine control of residence time and specific mechanical energy, helping you establish process windows that transfer to larger twin-screw lines.

For rapid screening and property checks, shaped samples can be produced via strand/film accessories or directed to micro-molding tools. Pairing the extrudate with HAAKE MARS rheometers or HAAKE Viscotester iQ viscometers quantifies viscosity, yield behavior, viscoelasticity, and structure recovery—linking formulation and process to performance. SOP-driven HAAKE RheoWin™ software streamlines QC, and optional 21 CFR Part 11 features support data-integrity requirements in regulated environments.

Result: faster iteration with minimal sample, reproducible data for scale-up, and a clear path from concept to clinical and device applications—powered by the HAAKE product line.
