Microspheres process equipment for classification, washing, drying

Achieve high yield production of polymeric microspheres by seamlessly integrating classification, washing, and drying into a single automated process, ensuring consistent operational efficiency and product quality.

Processes and Refines Polymeric Microspheres

The Microsphere Refiner (MSR) from AUSTAR is an automated, all-in-one solution for polymeric microsphere processing, incorporating classification, filtration, washing, and drying stages within a single unit. Specially designed for pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical applications, it effectively aids in the production of polymeric microspheres, sustained-release tablets, and drug delivery carriers. The MSR handles both laboratory (gram scale) and commercial production (up to 25 kg), ensuring high yield operations. Featuring horizontal and vertical filtration, jacketed heating and cooling for efficient drying, and tilt discharging for optimized output, it seamlessly integrates into existing process skids. The equipment’s automated control and remote monitoring capabilities bolster operational efficiency, while its robust design ensures compatibility with industry standards for chemical resistance and cleanliness. Customizable configurations are available, reducing costs by offering production without the need for sterile isolation or freeze-drying systems.

Benefits
