From R&D to Industrial Production
Mildtech designs and manufactures solid-state microwave and vacuum systems for processing applications from research and product development through to larger-scale production.
Systems for Every Stage of Scale-Up
From compact R&D systems through pilot and commercial production to bespoke tonne-scale equipment, Mildtech’s machine range is designed to support each stage of process development and scale-up.
MTECH10
Designed for research, feasibility testing and product development, the MTECH10 brings Mildtech’s solid-state microwave and vacuum processing technology into a compact development-scale system. It is ideal for small-batch trials, proof-of-concept work and early-stage process development before progressing to larger-scale equipment.
- Compact system for R&D and feasibility testing
- Ideal for small-batch trials and proof-of-concept work
- Precise control of microwave power, frequency, vacuum and temperature
- Suitable for both vacuum and atmospheric processing
TECHNICAL SUMMARY
MTECH20
The MTECH20 provides increased processing capacity while retaining the flexibility and precise control required for research and development. Designed for larger trials, process development and early-stage scale-up, it provides a natural progression from the MTECH10 before moving into pilot-scale production.
- Increased capacity for larger development trials
- Designed for R&D and early-stage scale-up
- Precise control of microwave power, frequency, vacuum and temperature
- Suitable for both vacuum and atmospheric processing
TECHNICAL SUMMARY
MTECH50
Designed for pilot-scale processing, process development and early-stage commercial production, the MTECH50 provides increased capacity with higher microwave power and larger batch capability. Its modular solid-state microwave system combines precise control of power, frequency, vacuum and temperature for repeatable processing across a wide range of applications. As Mildtech’s largest standard system, the MTECH50 provides a practical route from development and validation into commercial production, with bespoke systems available for larger industrial requirements.
- Designed for pilot-scale production and process development
- Higher batch capacity for larger trials and early-stage commercial production
- Precise control of microwave power, frequency, vacuum and temperature
- Suitable for both vacuum and atmospheric processing
TECHNICAL SUMMARY
Beyond the Standard Range
Mildtech can design and engineer larger-capacity systems for applications that extend beyond the standard machine range. Bespoke systems can be configured around product characteristics, required throughput, processing conditions and wider production-line requirements.
-
Large-Scale Capacity
Systems designed for significantly higher batch volumes, including up to 1 tonne+ per batch. -
Custom Engineering
Equipment configured around the product, process and production environment. -
Production Integration
Designed for integration with wider handling, automation and processing systems.
