THE IS HERE
The HiVE30 -- Wiped Film Evaporator -- is a revolutionary redesign of the hybridized wiped film evaporator capable of fast and precise distillation, translating to savings in time and resources.
This elegant and modular system was engineered with flexibility and ease of use in mind. The HiVE30 is here to claim its place as the most powerful of any WFE in its class.

AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT & MODULARITY
Vacuum Options Universal KF connections allows for multiple vacuum pump options and bolt of accesories. Choose between volatile stripping at higher rates vs. cutting/polishing with higher quality fractions.
FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE PROCESSING OPTIONS: HYBRID WIPED FILM VS. WFE OPERATION
WIPED FILMED EVAPORATOR OPERATION
(Stripping Cone Installed)
​
-
Best used for volatile stripping
-
Allows lighter compounds to exit as vapor path is extended
HYBRID OPERATION
(Internal Condenser Installed)
​
-
Best for cannabinoid stripping and polishing
-
Ideal for distillation of medium to heavy compounds
-
No need for recirculating heater for internal condenser
​
COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
High Expandability & Portability
The 80/20 modular frame allows for aftermarket upgrade
options in mounting auxiliary gear. Locking castor wheels allow
for quick relocation with secure placement. Expand the HiVE30
with dual cold trap option, available for improved vacuum
pump protection and/or stripping options.
​
Customizable Processing via Unique
Configuration Options
The dual-port design allows for co-current and concurrent
vapor path configurations, and a reversible wiper motor with
vectored blades allows for tailored material residence times.
​
Faster Assembly/Disassembly Times
via Universal Fittings
One tool, one person, 10 minute assembly or breakdown
reduces cleaning and system downtimes, increasing your
bottom line. Proprietary quick release fittings allow the internal
condenser or stripping cone to be swapped within minutes.
The internal condenser drip-stand allows reclamation of
precious oil during system uptime.
​
Faster, Easier Cleaning and Assembly Times
Clean with your desired solution, while at high temps, without damage to the evaporator body and/or components. The six-blade, high strength wiper cage allows for polar solvent cleaning in “mixer” mode.
​
Faster Cycle Times via High-Quality Materials
Full stainless steel construction allows for quick heating and cooling, reducing downtime during the cleaning process as well as allowing for accelerated system startup and cooldown cycles. Proprietary Aerogel insulated thermal wrap ensures consistent temperatures while also increasing heat retention resulting in reduced power costs and increased performance.
