Gravimetric feeders for pharmaceutical applications
Maintaining high product quality standards and precise process control in pharmaceutical manufacturing demands accurate metering of bulk solids. Achieving this level of precision is crucial for feeding upstream wet granulators, controlling tablet press lubrication, and more.
Enable precise bulk solid metering
The Gericke high-precision loss-in-weight gravimetric feeders are designed to ensure accurate metering of bulk solids in pharmaceutical applications. Integrated into the Gericke Formulation Skid (GFS), these feeders provide continuous manufacturing support and can function as standalone units. They are ideal for feeding upstream wet granulators, hot melt extrusion, and other critical processes. The feeders support controlled feeding to mills and micronizers, and are also used for batch feeding and automated dispensing of excipients and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). With high precision metering, they enable enhanced product quality and operational efficiency. The feeders are designed to integrate seamlessly into existing systems and provide easy monitoring and control.
