Pilot to full-scale roller compactor for dry granulation
In pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and chemical industries, achieving optimal powder density and flow characteristics is essential. Traditional methods often fall short in providing the consistency and efficiency required for high-quality downstream performance.
Enhance powder density and improve flow characteristics
The IR Range from The Fitzpatrick Company offers robust roller compactors designed for both pilot and full-scale production. This technology stands out for its ability to deliver directly scalable results from model to model, enhancing powder density and improving flow characteristics for various formulations. The IR 520 model, ideal for proof-of-concept and smaller volume production, features 5 x 20 cm rolls, a 26.3 kN/cm roll force, a 1-6 mm roll gap, and a capacity of 150 kg/hr*. The IR4Lx10D model is suited for full-scale production, featuring 4 x 10 cm rolls, a 17.5 kN/cm roll force, a 1-6 mm roll gap, and a capacity of 250-400 kg/hr*. Both models are designed for easy disassembly and reassembly, facilitating rapid and thorough cleaning. Manufactured in an ISO 9001:2015 accredited facility, these compactors meet cGMP standards and can handle a variety of fine chemical, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and food processing applications.
