Vertical conical screw vacuum dryer
In processes involving thermo-sensitive products, controlling moisture content effectively while ensuring product integrity is a major challenge. Additionally, achieving thorough drying with minimal contamination is critical for industries like pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals.
Efficiently dry thermo-sensitive products
The vertical conical screw vacuum dryer from Bachiller is designed specifically for drying moist thermo-sensitive, crystalline, amorphous, or paste products. Its unique fully conical vertical vessel coupled with a vertical screw mixing system ensures thorough and uniform drying. It operates under ultra vacuum conditions with a vacuum level less than 1 mbar and can achieve operating temperatures up to 200ºC, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The sanitary design, validated to cGMP and FDA standards, includes an internally mirror-polished finish with Ra ≤ 0.6 µm, which facilitates easy cleaning and inspection. The dryer can handle capacities ranging from 30 liters to 10,000 liters and is designed according to ASME VIII div.1, AD-2000, and EN-13445 standards, ensuring reliable and safe operation. Additional features like optional CIP/SIP systems and ATEX execution enhance its functionality for various industries including pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, and food processing.
