High shear lab granulation system for powder processing

Achieve precise granulation and consistent mixing of powders with this advanced top-drive system, designed to streamline your production line with easy maintenance and rapid changeovers.

Facilitates Wet Granulation and Mixing

The GMX-LAB Micro GRANUMEIST® from Freund-Vector is a high shear granulator designed to deliver efficient wet granulation and homogenous mixing. Its top-drive design simplifies cleaning and maintenance, while ensuring faster processing times without compromising user safety. With a range of applications, including pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals, it can produce immediate and extended-release tablets, as well as multivitamin and enzyme supplements.

The system features interchangeable 1L and 4L bowls, offering flexibility for varying batch sizes, and integrates user-defined settings for mixer and chopper blade speeds. Equipped with an optional jacketed bowl for product temperature control and an integrated peristaltic pump for precise solution addition, it ensures consistent granule formation. The Smart-Safe™ containment option enhances operational safety, while the proportional mixer blade tip-speeds and customizable bowl and blade geometries optimize processing outcomes.

Its color touchscreen control system simplifies operation, and the process control is designed for validation, supporting multiple end-point detection parameters. The unit supports scalability with its modular design and comes equipped with a USB data collection port for process monitoring. This portable and self-contained system is ideal for bench-top and pilot-scale operations in R&D and laboratory settings within pharmaceutical, biotech, and chemical industries.
