Benchtop roller compacting system
In research labs and small-scale production, achieving uniform, dense granulation from powdered materials can be challenging. Common issues include inconsistent hardness, irregular density, and excess fines that impact the final product’s quality.
Produce consistent compacted sheets
The GFC-LAB Micro GRANUFORCE™ by Freund is a versatile benchtop system designed for dry granulation and densification of powdered materials. It uses a cantilevered roll design and vertical tapered feed screw system to produce uniform sheets with consistent hardness and increased density. The unit’s compact size and roll gap control via hydraulic pressure allow precise adjustments, making it suitable for small processing volumes of 5g to 1kg/hr. The optional granulating mill further enhances particle size reduction. Built for ease of use and cleaning, the system supports efficient process development and can scale up to production models. This roller compactor is ideal for applications in pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and other industries requiring precise powder processing.
