Pharmaceutical aseptic separator tumble dryer
Streamline moisture reduction with precision: this solution accelerates drying and minimizes agglomerates, ensuring high yield recovery in pharmaceutical powder processing.

Filtrates and Dries Pharmaceutical and Chemical Products
The SWECO PH46 PharmASep 1200mm Filter/Dryer is designed specifically for pharmaceutical and chemical industries needing precise control over filtration and drying processes. Featuring a sealed pressure vessel with a highly polished crevice-free interior, it ensures high yield product recovery and safe handling of potent pharmaceutics. The unique Vibro-Dry technology allows for vacuum drying while gently agitating the product, accelerating the drying process and minimizing agglomerate formation. Ideal for processing antibiotics, vaccines, APIs, and nutraceutical blends, the system operates seamlessly in batch, continuous, pilot, or full production environments, handling up to 25 kg of solids per batch or continuous process. Constructed to meet GMP and FDA standards, it is available with customization options such as material choices for enhanced chemical resistance. Integration into existing production lines is facilitated by its PLC control system for optimized automation and efficiency. Additionally, it includes a CIP system for effective, contamination-free cleaning.
