Material R&D and Scale-Up

By Aveka Inc

Quite often, customers come to AVEKA with a brilliant material concept but lack the technical roadmap to manufacture it at scale. Fortunately, our team of industry-renowned engineers, scientists, and technicians specializes in developing, refining, and scaling up custom processing solutions. Our R&D assignments span from quick, small-scale feasibility studies to comprehensive, long-term development projects involving patent searches, brainstorming sessions, and formal intellectual property agreements. AVEKA’s scale-up process transitions a product from R&D lab-scale testing to pilot trials, and finally to full-scale engineering optimization. This process typically takes between one month and a year depending on project complexity. Phase 1: Lab-Scale Feasibility: Projects begin in our R&D department to evaluate material behavior using small-scale laboratory equipment. Phase 2: Pilot-Scale Trials: Once feasibility is proven, we scale up to mid-sized batches to refine processing parameters. Phase 3: Production Optimization: The project moves to our engineering team to maximize throughput and guarantee quality for full-scale commercial production. Whether you need to dry a challenging slurry, apply a custom specialty coating, or engineer a complex particulate, AVEKA has the advanced technology and manufacturing expertise to bring your product to market. We manage your project from initial laboratory feasibility to continuous commercial production. Contact our team today to discuss your fluid bed drying or material scale-up needs.
