Vacuum paddle dryer for chemical and pharmaceutical applications

In the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, precise and efficient drying of sensitive materials is crucial to maintain product quality and stability. Handling heat-sensitive and solvent-based products demands technology that can deliver controlled, low-temperature drying processes while ensuring product integrity.

Enhanced drying efficiency with controlled vacuum technology

The DRUVATHERM® vacuum paddle dryer from Gebrüder Lödige Maschinenbau GmbH is a batch vacuum dryer designed for intensive mixing and efficient drying. It utilizes a cylindrical drum with temperature control jackets and frequency-controlled rotating mixing elements, creating a three-dimensional product movement that results in maximum heat transfer. This setup ensures incredibly short drying times and gentle thermal treatment of products. Fine particles are managed via a pneumatically purged filter system, ensuring consistent drying results. Optionally, rotating choppers can be installed to handle product phase transitions. Applicable in diverse fields including the chemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, plastics, food, and battery industries, this equipment provides robust solutions for critical drying requirements.
