Continuous Direct Compression

ConsiGma® DC-LB Lines integrate continuous dry blending using linear blenders and tablet compression into one efficient continuous production system.

Available in 2 standard sizes, depending on the desired throughput (from 1 to 100 kg/h or 20,000 to 150,000 tablets/h to be verified by testing), the systems can be customized with a number of options to suit customer needs.

The Conductor 4.0 software ensures seamless control of the entire process and provides full reporting and track & trace.

Mainly targeted towards high-value products (low dose API), orphan drugs and new chemical entities, and particularly suited for challenging recipes that require two-stage blending or more dispersive blending, the systems can be equipped with cleaning and containment features to handle highly potent formulations.

Standard Configuration

Up to 6 loss-in-weight feeders with automatic top-up systems
2 linear blenders
GEA compression system

Available Options

PAT tools
Hot swap parts for fast changeover
Material handling system including containment features
Containment upgrade
Coater

Main Benefits

Reduced risk of segregation – no material hold-ups
Highest possible blend homogeneity – all powder particles go through the same mixing event
Higher material yield
High flexibility from very low to very high API content
In process blend uniformity control – second-by-second
Adaption to variable throughput capacities
No hold-up issues
Wider drug load range than batch processing
System automatically adapts to changes in bulk density
Adaptable top-up sizes to ensure accurate feeding
Automatically adjustable dwell time
Flexible batch size
Smaller footprint
