Single-pot processor for wet granulation and vacuum drying

Achieve efficient mixing, granulation, and swift vacuum drying in a streamlined process, ensuring high-quality production of granules with reduced risk of material adherence and optimized moisture control.

Mixes, Granulates, and Dries in One System

The VAC 150-1200 from DIOSNA is a robust single-pot processor engineered to streamline the mixing, granulation, and drying stages of production for pharmaceutical solids, cosmetics, and fine chemicals. Its dual-zone heating with a cylindrical mixing bowl and an efficient wall scraper ensures quick drying, even for adhesive products. The system operates under vacuum, with optional stripping gas distribution to augment drying efficiency. Suitable for production-scale operations, it accommodates diverse applications, including pharmaceutical tablets and cosmetic creams. The unit integrates seamlessly with an industrial PC, facilitating full automation and remote maintenance. It ensures compliance with 21 CFR Part 11 for quality assurance, while the CIP/WIP process allows effortless cleaning. Stainless steel construction provides durability and chemical compatibility, with customization options available for specific processing requirements.
