Compactor for powder processing
In chemical, food, and pharmaceutical industries, ensuring optimal powder properties is essential. Challenges include dust pollution, inconsistent particle sizes, and poor flow properties, which can affect the quality and efficiency of production processes.
Optimize powder compaction with advanced roller design
The Hosokawa Alpine APC L, APC C, and ARC K series offer robust solutions for powder compaction across various industries, including chemicals and pharmaceuticals. These compactors feature high pressing force, stainless steel construction, and design options for ease of cleaning and maintenance. The APC L series excels in smaller throughputs and rapid roller changes due to its swing concept, achieving up to 150 kg/h. The ARC K series supports higher throughputs up to 1000 kg/h with adjustable roller gaps and cooling, enhancing flexibility. The APC C series, designed for the pharmaceutical sector, includes special features like gap and screw control for precise granulation, supporting cleaning-in-place systems. These models address specific needs for improved flow properties, dust reduction, and customized particle size, making them suitable for diverse applications such as catalysts, nutritional supplements, and tableting granulation.
