Benchtop roller compacting system

Compacts and Granulates Powders into Uniform Sheets

The GFC-LAB Micro GRANUFORCE™ from Freund-Vector is a compact benchtop roll compactor designed for precision granulation in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. Utilizing a cantilevered roll design, it densifies and compacts powders into uniform sheets, ideal for producing supplements and vitamin granules. The system handles small processing volumes, ranging from 5g to 1kg/hr, making it suitable for laboratory and development settings.

Equipped with a vertical tapered feed screw and a standard serrated roll structure, this compactor ensures consistent material feed and sheet density. The roll gap is controlled via hydraulic pressure, mimicking production-scale models, thus aligning with engineered scalability requirements. Its inline de-aeration design enhances product quality by removing trapped air before compaction.

The GFC-LAB Micro GRANUFORCE™ features manual adjustment capabilities for roll force and speed, providing flexibility in operation. Its smart-safe containment options minimize dust emissions, maintaining a clean processing environment. Cleaning is straightforward with minimal tools needed, aided by a quick-changeover design to reduce downtime. Additionally, it runs on a single electrical connection, making it portable and convenient for different workspaces.

Ready for integration into existing laboratory and R&D processes, this compactor supports continuous and batch operations, facilitating easy transition from development to production. The equipment complies with stringent pharmaceutical standards, ensuring it meets industry-specific requirements for hygiene and safety.
