High shear GMP wet granulator

Achieve precise and homogenous wet granulation of powders with adaptable settings for improved batch consistency and reduced processing time, ensuring optimal preparation for downstream formulation.

Processes and Granulates Powders into Uniform Granules

The GMXB-LAB Micro GRANUMEIST® by Freund is a lab-scale high shear wet granulator, integral to transforming powders into consistent, high-density granules for pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, and fine chemical applications. Its bottom-drive design ensures easy maintenance and user safety, while interchangeable product bowls provide flexibility across 1L to 6L batches. This granulator handles mixing and homogenizing processes with precision, supported by a peristaltic pump for both aqueous and solvent-based operations. The system also features user-defined speed settings and optional Smart-Safe™ containment for controlled environments. The integration of a color touchscreen control and USB data collection facilitates streamlined operations and process validations, ensuring compliance with industry standards.
