Fluid bed processor for granulation and coating
Fluid bed processors offer efficient granulation and coating, streamlining material handling by combining multiple processes in a single vessel, ensuring reduced process times and enhanced material properties.

Processes Granules Through Granulation and Coating
The Fluid Bed Processor from Fabtech presents a hybrid solution combining granulation and coating in a unified system. Designed for pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries, it operates by fluidizing particles for superior granule formation and coating application. This integration enhances efficiency in processing effervescent tablets, antibiotic granules, and agrochemical pellets. With a capacity to manage laboratory, pilot, and commercial operations, it ensures optimal throughput while maintaining energy efficiency through a variable-speed motor. Constructed from SS 316/SS316L, its mirror-finished contact surfaces guarantee compliance with cGMP standards. Equipped with a PLC-controlled interface, it offers seamless line integration and remote monitoring. The processor is further complemented by HEPA filtration and pneumatically controlled dampers for precise environmental control. Tailored engineering support is available, including customizable parameters and containment isolation systems for safety and validation ease.
