Scale & architecture
One platform. Every scale. Clear about who builds what.
QB Systems answers two questions at once: does it fit my scale, and who builds the hardware? From screening to benchtop we deliver the full stack; at pilot and above we bring control and integration onto partner-built installations.
The model
What QB delivers at each scale.
| Scale tier | Vessel | Material | What QB delivers | Who builds hardware |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Screening | ~500 ml | Glass / disposable | Full stack — QB Modules + QB Control | QB Systems |
| Benchtop | 1–8 L | Glass | Full stack — QB Modules + QB Control | QB Systems |
| Pilot | 50–300 L | Stainless steel | Integration + control software on partner skids | QB + partners |
| Production (future) | >200 L | Stainless steel | Integration + control software for large installs | QB + partners |
Who builds what
Lab-scale full-stack, pilot-scale through partners.
From screening to benchtop, QB Systems delivers the complete software-defined system — hardware and software. From pilot scale upward, QB brings the open control layer and integration expertise, while certified partners build the stainless-steel installations. We own the lab-scale story end to end and play credibly at pilot/production through integration — without overclaiming fabrication we don't do.
Grow with your needs
No upfront investment. Extend on your timeline.
Because the platform is software-defined and modular, you don't buy the end-state system up front. Start at the scope you need today and grow — capabilities by real-time licence, hardware by adding modules — with no re-engineering.
-
Start single-process, grow to multi-process
Extend dynamically, with no re-build.
-
Start with a few pumps
Add more pumps or new modules later, with low effort and fast turnaround.
-
User-performed
Software (licence) and hardware changes need no integrator beyond licence generation; a trained partner or distributor can assist.
The result: minimal upfront investment and fast adaptation as your process and scale evolve.
