OptiMax™ is a powerful synthesis workstation optimized for pharmaceutical, fine-chemical and specialty-chemical development. The unique design and intuitive interface improve the organic synthesis process and maximize time-to-result in product development. The compact workstation requires little to no training to operate and allows experiments to run from -40 to 180°C without oil, ice baths, or bulky cryostats. The newly designed workstation simplifies the way organic synthesis is performed and provides significant productivity gains during process development while carefully tracking synthesis to successfully produce quality data. The workstation provides one simple platform for safe, effective product and process development and is compact, robust and simple to use. The intuitive touch screen allows reaction parameter changes, such as temperature, with just a few clicks. With a variety of reactors from 250 mL to 1 L, different stirrers and other accessories, assembling the workstation or altering configuration is quick and almost effortless. Ease of execution, accuracy and reproducibility are ensured by the workstation. Experiment data are presented in real time either numerically or as graphic trends. Data recording and reporting capabilities contribute to highly traceable and reproducible results. Intelligent built-in automation eliminates error-prone steps and reduces process variability. Experiments can be programmed for execution safely around the clock, and automatic data logging ensures that no critical process information is missed.
