Vacuum paddle dryer for active pharmaceutical ingredients
For precise moisture control and contamination-free conditions, this system ensures effective drying of sensitive compounds while maintaining high product integrity, essential before final formulation in various applications.
Dries and Discharges Sensitive Solid Products
The MAVAPAD® Vacuum Paddle Dryer from GMM Pfaudler offers a robust solution for efficient drying in pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries. Featuring a large heat transfer area with flat ends, it ensures faster drying and lower heel volumes for challenging applications like APIs and specialty chemicals. The system’s hollow rotating agitator improves heat transfer, and its fully openable door facilitates thorough cleaning and validation. Designed with a choice of stainless steel, Hastelloy, or special alloys, it handles corrosive environments efficiently. The equipment complies with cGMP and FDA guidelines, providing reliable performance in sterile settings. Integration is seamless, utilizing the Dry9000® shaft sealing system to prevent contamination. Optional features like a lump breaker and sampling systems enhance functionality, while the twist close valve ensures quick, residue-free discharge. Tailored engineering support ensures that MAVAPAD® meets specific process needs, promoting operational efficiencies across batch and manual operations.
