Available in 3 standard sizes, depending on the desired throughput (from 5 to 120 kg/h, to be verified by testing), the systems can be customized with a number of options to suit customer needs.
Ideal for pharmaceutical companies who wish to benefit from higher levels of process control and better-quality product but prefer to maintain their current mode of operation.
The Conductor software ensures seamless control of the entire process, full reporting and tracking of OOS. Material genealogy can be integrated into the controls. Handshaking with up- or downstream equipment can also be offered.
Standard Configuration
- 1 loss-in-weight feeder (to be loaded with pre-mix from an IBC)
- Twin screw granulator
- Segmented fluid bed dryer
- Granule conditioning unit
Available Options
- Choice of feeder (GEA or qualified third-party feeder)
- Pressure Shock Resistant (PSR) design
- Suitable for Solvents processing
- Lighthouse Probe® for LOD measurement
- Second HMI
- Material genealogy
- Material handling system including containment features
Main Benefits
- Controlled granulation
- Small amount of at-risk API
- Replace only a single step in the process with minimal impact as per SUPAC guidelines; plant scheduling and testing remain the same as with current process
- More equal granulation binder distribution
- High flexibility from very low to very high API content
- Porosity control of the granules
- Control of granule particle size distribution
- Use of solvent-free binders
- Compatible with variable throughput capacities

El avance que revolucionó el secado por atomización
En 1976, los ingenieros de NIRO respondieron a un reto competitivo replanteándose las posibilidades del secado por atomización. Su idea se materializó en la torre multietapa MSD. Cincuenta años después, ese mismo principio fundamental contribuye a transformar los líquidos en los productos en polvo que se utilizan en productos nutricionales esenciales y en medicamentos importantes en todo el mundo. Perfeccionada a lo largo de décadas de experiencia en ingeniería, conocimiento de las necesidades de los clientes y desarrollo continuo, la torre de atomización MSD es una historia de innovación con un impacto duradero.
Más allá de la máquina: cómo potenciar el rendimiento de la planta
El hecho de que una máquina sea eficiente no significa que la fábrica lo sea. La mejora real suele comenzar por ir más allá de los equipos individuales y comprender cómo los procesos, los sistemas energéticos y las decisiones operativas se influyen mutuamente. Se trata de un enfoque holístico diseñado para descubrir oportunidades que, de otro modo, podrían pasarse por alto.
Cómo una válvula transforma la manera de elaborar alimentos y bebidas
En las plantas de alimentación y bebidas, las válvulas suelen accionarse mediante aire comprimido. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology mueve las válvulas mediante agua, en un circuito cerrado controlado digitalmente. El resultado es una válvula que puede mantenerse en su sitio con exactitud y regularse con precisión. Esto se traduce en un menor consumo energético y un mayor control.
