Mixing granulator for pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries

Achieve precise granulation and uniform mixing for high-quality tablet and cosmetic production, ensuring optimal texture and consistency with high-speed, GMP-compliant operation.

Mixes, Granulates, and Sieves Pharmaceutical and Cosmetic Products

The Lödige Mixing Granulator is engineered to meet the stringent demands of the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and food industries. This high-shear mixer utilizes a sophisticated three-bladed tool rotating within a vertical, cylindrical vessel to achieve vortex-like circulation, ensuring rapid and uniform mixing and granulation. Equipped to handle pharmaceutical powders, granulated products, and more, it supports the creation of diverse end products such as tablets, facial powders, and seasoning blends. The mixer features automated liquid addition, either gravimetric or via pump, optimizing distribution, while an optional wet sieve on discharge ensures granule homogeneity. The PC/PLC-based control system, compliant with CFR-21 Part 11, offers intuitive operation with full process parameter visibility, ensuring precise batch documentation. Designed with a modular WIP system, it allows for efficient cleaning and maintenance. Compliance with GMP standards and available ATEX concepts provides assurance in controlled environments. Customizable options include a heating/cooling jacket, vacuum feeding, and integration with fluid bed processors, delivering adaptable solutions for varied production needs.
