Dry granulation roll compactor
Optimize your tablet and capsule formulation by efficiently compacting and granulating powders with precise control over particle size and density in continuous operation.

Compacts and Granulates Pharmaceutical Powders
The SigmaCompactor™ series from SSPM Systems & Engineers is designed as a versatile encapsulated roll compactor for the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries. Utilizing a unique twin screw design with one fixed and one hydraulically floated roller, it ensures efficient compaction and granulation of powders into uniform granules. This system is ideal for processing a wide range of materials, including paracetamol tablets and vitamin C tablets, with output capacities ranging from 5 to 300 kilograms per hour depending on the model. The equipment offers both online and offline operation capabilities, controlled via PLC and HMI systems for precise recipe management. Energy efficiency is optimized with variable-speed motors, enhancing throughput and reducing operational costs. Constructed for durability, it can be customized with a water-jacketed roller for heat-sensitive materials and comes with options for CIP systems, vacuum de-aeration, and isolation chambers, ensuring compliance with GMP standards. This compactor integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, aiding in continuous or batch processing with minimal maintenance requirements.
