Roll compactor system for dry granulation
Achieve consistent tablet hardness and increased powder density with a versatile compaction system designed for efficient dry granulation, ensuring uniformity and scalability in your production process.
Compacts and Granulates Powders for Consistent Density
The GFC-220 GRANUFORCE™ by Freund-Vector is an ETO roller compactor designed for pharmaceutical, biotech, chemical, and food industries. It specializes in densifying and granulating powders, ensuring uniformity and enhanced material density. Utilizing a cantilevered roll design with vertical tapered feed screws, it processes 1 to 30 kg/hr, ideal for applications like lactose-based tablets and vitamin supplements. The system integrates seamlessly into continuous production lines, supported by a 12″ touchscreen control for precise roll gap and force adjustments. Optional inline PAT monitoring optimizes particle size distribution. Engineered with GMP compliance in mind, it features easy-clean cantilevered rolls and Smart-Safe™ containment for operational safety.
