View and Measure Particles In Situ and in Real Time

EasyViewer is an inline particle size analysis tool based on high-resolution microscope images and verifiable image analysis.

Together with image analysis based particle size measurements, EasyViewer provides rapid and early understanding of how particles and droplets change. This can be leveraged to improve yield, purity, filtration and quality in smaller volumes and faster than ever before. Without sampling or diluting, researchers can visualize crystals, particles and droplets in an outstanding level of detail.

EasyViewer and the powerful iC Vision software utilize innovative auto-focus, auto-lighting and auto-save best image algorithms. Researchers never miss capturing crisp, high-resolution images of important events – even when working remotely. 

Advanced image analysis simplifies data analysis by automatically detecting undesired events, such as droplet formation, that could lead to downstream impurities.

The slim EasyViewer probe has no field unit and requires no utilities, making installation into any size vessel down to 10 mL easier than ever.

With a simple plug-and-play USB connection and streamlined iC Vision software, anyone can pick up an instrument and within minutes, capture stunning images of particles as they naturally exist in-process without sampling or dilution – even in thick slurries. 

Introduce analytical size and shape measurements directly into your reactor with powerful image analysis algorithms. Turbidity provides exceptional process trending capabilities, and verifiable image analysis provides accurate size and shape measurement, reducing the need for slow, offline testing.

A choice of probe sizes enables confident deployment in any size reactor 10 mL and up.

• The lightweight and slim probe of the EasyViewer 100 is ideal for early development when sample volumes are limited, and process unknowns are high.
• The long probe and optimized depth of field of the EasyViewer 400 provides unmatched images for advanced particle engineering in larger reactors.

EasyViewer and iC Vision seamlessly integrate into EasyMax and iControl for easy experimental design. When experiments combine ReactRaman (Raman spectroscopy),  FTIR spectroscopy and ParticleTrack, scientists can confidently overlay data in the iC Software to get answers and accelerate development of particle systems. 

• ReactRaman - A compact, high-performance Raman spectrometer provides critical insight for even the most challenging reactions, including crystallization processes, polymorphism detection and multiphasic reactions
• ReactIR - A user-friendly in-situ FTIR spectrometer enables scientists to measure reaction trends and profiles in real-time, providing highly specific information about supersaturation, reaction kinetics, mechanisms and pathways
• ParticleTrack with FBRM technology- ParticleTrack is the industry-standard, inline tool used to measure the influence of process parameters on particle properties, including size, shape and count

Understand precisely how process parameters impact concentration, size, shape, and structure to make better decisions, eliminate process risks and solve problems – faster.
