New Integrated HPLC/UHPLC from Shimadzu

Shimadzu announces the launch of the i-Series LC-2070/LC-2080 Integrated HPLC/UHPLC Systems, designed to meet the evolving demands of pharmaceutical laboratories. These compact, robust instruments feature Analytical Intelligence™ with auto-diagnostics and auto-recovery, reducing downtime and operator workload. The integrated column management platform (iCMP) streamlines column tracking and enhances data integrity, while ultra-fast injection cycles and ultra-low carryover ensure outstanding reproducibility and reliability.

Sustainability is a key focus, with the new i-Series using 20% less energy than comparable systems on the market, supported by LabSolutions software’s ecology modes and automated shutdown functions to further lower power consumption and waste. The AI-powered Peakintelligence™ algorithm accelerates chromatogram analysis, reducing manual correction time by 75%. Purpose-built for pharmaceutical quality control, R&D, and routine testing, Shimadzu’s latest i-Series delivers next-generation automation, performance, and eco-friendly operation.
