Sanitary horizontal paddle vacuum dryer
For sensitive product drying, ensuring short cycles and high thermal efficiency is crucial. This solution offers precise moisture control and gentle handling for products ranging from pharmaceutical APIs to nutritious food powders.
Dries and Mixes Thermo-Sensitive Materials
The Sanidry SHV from Bachiller is a sanitary horizontal paddle vacuum dryer specifically designed for drying thermo-sensitive products. This equipment ensures enhanced heat exchange with its fully heated body, shaft, and paddles, which operate under vacuum conditions to meticulously dry moist, crystalline, or amorphous materials. Widely applied in pharmaceutical, fine chemical, and food industries, it is ideal for producing a range of end-products such as ibuprofen tablets, vitamin C powder, and lyophilized coffee.
With a capacity ranging from 50 to 10,000 liters, the Sanidry SHV supports batch operations, maintaining a vacuum level of less than 1 mbar and operating temperatures up to 200º C. Its design includes features like internal mirror polishing to Ra ≤ 0.6 µm for easy cleaning and compliance with cGMP and FDA standards, making it suitable for regulated environments. The equipment is customizable, offering options like an electro-polished interior, CIP/SIP systems, and ATEX execution for volatile environments. Additionally, it integrates seamlessly into production lines, accelerating drying cycles while being energy-efficient.
