Batch bioreactor / fermentor

continuousperfusionlaboratory

Overview
Morimatsu bioreactor/fermenter system covers a full product range including benchtop (glass), pilot-scale and large-scale production stainless steel systems. The solution supports process development and scale-up from laboratory to commercial production for cell culture and microbial fermentation.

Engineering and services
Morimatsu’s project execution team, with engineers from Asia, Europe and North America, implements an aseptic design approach for cell culture and microbial fermentation systems. The company provides early-stage experimental services in clean laboratory facilities and supports efficient scale-up to industrial production.

Benchtop reactor system
The benchtop reactor system integrates industrial PLC, E&I components and a commercial control configuration platform to manage multiple units, enable remote monitoring and collect process data. Systems are configurable for single or parallel operation. Optional bench volumes cover 1 L to 10 L and 2 to 16 units can be connected in parallel for batch and continuous perfusion cultures, reducing cycle time and improving experimental throughput.

Pilot-scale and commercial bioreactor/fermenter systems
Pilot and production systems combine bioengineering technology with automation, modular design and intelligent manufacturing to deliver a series of stainless steel fermenters and bioreactors suitable for laboratory, pilot and commercial scales (ranges typically noted from 10 L up to 300 kL and above for fermentation systems).
