Single-pot processor for wet granulation and vacuum drying
In the pharmaceutical and fine chemicals industries, wet granulation followed by effective drying is crucial when handling adhesive and temperature-sensitive materials. Traditional methods often struggle with uniform drying and deposition issues, leading to inefficiencies and potential product quality concerns.
Produces and dries granules efficiently
The VAC 150-1200 Single-Pot processor by Diosna is designed to mix, granulate, and dry components in a single system. What sets this processor apart is its cylindrical mixing bowl with two heating zones and a double jacket. During the drying process, compressed air or nitrogen is introduced to ensure uniform drying, even for adhesive products. The system’s scraper-equipped mixing tool runs close to the wall to prevent deposits, making it efficient for drying sticky granules. The unit also features an industrial PC compliant with 21 CFR Part 11 for full automation and remote maintenance, ensuring that all processes are meticulously monitored and controlled. The inclusion of a sight glass allows real-time observation and adjustments, while the CIP/WIP cleaning process ensures high levels of cleanliness and downtime reduction.
