There is a great need for analytic instrumentation suitable for applications in pharmaceutical and pathology labs. The aim of this project is to develop cooling technology that reduces the footprint, operating costs and maintenance of a novel instrument by building and evaluating a demonstrator. The project will entail developing a novel product and working closely with a UK supplier seeking to diversify its business. The future product will facilitate advances in medicine, but the main focus of the project is the engineering innovation. Existing comparable instruments contain a large bath of liquid helium which requires refilling and they occupy lots of space. Instead, our system uses a device that eliminates cryogen refills and lowers the overall cost. But significant development of the technology is required in order to use it on the new instrument. The new product will allow us to grow turnover substantially over 5 years. It will allow us to enter a major market for analytic instrumentation, with a significant fraction addressable to us. New significant markets are also likely to open in other sectors.

有一个很大的需求，分析仪器适用于制药和病理实验室的应用。该项目的目的是开发冷却技术，通过构建和评估演示器来减少新仪器的占地面积，运营成本和维护。该项目将需要开发一种新产品，并与一家寻求业务多元化的英国供应商密切合作。未来的产品将促进医学的进步，但该项目的主要重点是工程创新。现有的类似仪器包含一个大的液氦池，需要重新填充，它们占据了大量的空间。相反，我们的系统使用的设备，消除了冷冻剂补充和降低整体成本。但是，为了在新仪器上使用该技术，需要对该技术进行重大开发。新产品将使我们的营业额在5年内大幅增长。它将使我们能够进入分析仪器的主要市场，其中很大一部分是针对我们的。其他行业也可能出现新的重要市场。
