Automation, unified.
Explore the benefits of an industry-standard module type package (MTP) for use with Cytiva equipment controlled with UNICORN™ software.
Would you like to learn more about how MTP works with UNICORN™ control software?
Talk with your Cytiva hardware specialist about how to implement an MTP solution with your preferred automation platform.
Forget plug-and-play. Now you can plug-and-produce.
The biotech industry uses lots of different automation platforms for manufacturing sites. But how easy is it to connect your preferred hardware to these platforms? It can take days or weeks—up to 200 hours of software engineering work. But it doesn’t have to.
Soon, you’ll be able to integrate your Cytiva systems operated by UNICORN™ software with your preferred automation platform within hours, not weeks, using the benefits of an industry standard module type package (MTP). MTP simplifies modular process automation by dividing manufacturing into self-contained, mobile modules that can be swapped or reconfigured for different production needs.
Key benefits
The MTP capability will be available in late 2026, with the upcoming release of UNICORN™ control software v8. Fill out the form and our software team will contact you to explore how the MTP feature can help simplify process automation for your facility.
