Continuous direct compression line for pharmaceuticals

Blends and Compresses Powders Continuously

The ConsiGma® Direct Compression with Ribbon Blending (DC-RB) Lines from GEA are designed to seamlessly integrate into your pharmaceutical or nutraceutical production line. These lines specialize in combining continuous dry blending and tablet compression, making them ideal for producing pharmaceutical tablets, multivitamin capsules, and various supplements. Available in three standard sizes, they offer throughput ranging from 10 to 200 kg/h or 20,000 to 400,000 tablets/hr, tailored to your production needs.

The system employs a ribbon blender to ensure uniform blending, followed by compression in one streamlined operation, significantly optimizing material yield and blend homogeneity. Featuring the Conductor 4.0 software, it provides thorough process control with continuous in-process blend uniformity measurement. This integration supports flexible batch sizes and variable throughput capacities without hold-up issues, adapting effortlessly to diverse product types from powders to granules.

The DC-RB lines are constructed with high corrosion resistance materials to comply with stringent GMP and FDA standards, ensuring quality and safety in pharmaceutical production. Enhanced by options like various feeder systems and containment features, the equipment supports customization for diverse production scenarios. Its compact design reduces the production footprint, eliminating work in progress and allowing for straightforward cleaning and maintenance, essential for maintaining operational efficiency and product integrity.
