PORTLAND, Oregon, December 3, 2021 - PRESS RELEASE - The ARTISAN X-D200 represents an improvement in distillation equipment compared to traditional wiped film short path evaporators. Explicitly designed for cannabinoid processing, the ARTISAN X-D200 can produce market-ready products with a single pass, saving on labor, electricity and hardware costs.
The ARTISAN X-D200 is designed to:
- Reduce operating costs
- Improve product quality
- Minimize downtime
Effortless, clean-in-place features allow for prompt and quicker cleaning of major components. Fixed clearance rotors eliminate costly and time-intensive PTFE wiper or roller replacements that are necessary for traditional wiped and rolled film evaporators. This design feature also prevents product contamination from these unhealthy fluorinated polymers. The ARTISAN X-D200 is the complete package of efficiency and reliability at a highly competitive price per liter of throughput.

"The ARTISAN X-D200 takes the best of Artisan Industries' proven Rototherm horizontal thin film technology and incorporates it in a cutting-edge modular system designed for cannabinoid processors," said Emmett McGregor, SciPhy Systems CEO. "CBD/THC distillate manufacturers now have the opportunity to benefit from Artisan's 85 years of experience providing separation equipment to the processing industries."
Ready-To-Install Modular System:
The ARTISAN X-D200 is shipped ready-to-install as one complete pre-assembled skid, requiring only a single power drop. Processors receive a turnkey solution, which keeps startup time and commissioning short and inexpensive. The ARTISAN X-D200 features long-life, high-performance seals and uses no Teflon wipers, rollers or fragile glass vessels. The skid also includes comprehensive process monitoring and controls for oil film temperature, vapor temperature and vacuum depth. Precision mass flow metered feed provides superior film residence time control.
Models, Maintenance and Availability:
The ARTISAN X-D200 standard model is rated for 13 L/hr and features a tight footprint, rapid setup time, clean-in-place, and requires less labor for operation. (Class 1 Div 2 & Class 1 Div 1 models available)
Additional Features:
- horizontal orientation
- single pass distillation
