Spherical vacuum dryer for Apis and fine chemicals
Achieve precise moisture control and efficient drying for APIs and fine chemicals with our versatile spherical vacuum dryer, engineered for optimized batch processes and seamless integration into your production line.
Dries, Mixes, and Discharges Powder Formulations
The MAVASPHERE® from GMM Pfaudler is a spherical vacuum dryer designed for pharmaceutical and fine chemical manufacturing, ensuring exceptional drying performance and efficient operations. It features an eccentrically mounted agitator that provides uniform mixing and drying, with minimal product hold-up for easy cleaning and validation. Suitable for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and chemicals such as paracetamol and aspirin, it operates with various filling capacities and a good turndown ratio.
This multi-purpose dryer integrates seamlessly into your production line with temperature-controlled automation units and vacuum systems for solvent recovery. Made from Stainless Steel, Hastelloy, and special alloys, it offers superior corrosion resistance, meeting cGMP and FDA guidelines. The optional dry9000® shaft sealing system and chopper for effective lump breaking enhance its versatility. A compact design reduces the footprint, and its CIP system supports contamination-free cleaning, minimizing downtime and ensuring compliance with industry standards.
