Pharmaceutical Processing Machineries
Roll Compactor
- Roll Compactor is designed for the densification by compacting powder for the Pharmaceutical
and Bulk Drug Industries in particular, Food & Chemical industries in general.
- The compacting roll is designed to provide a uniform force distribution to create uniform bulk density & to give fine granules of uniform quality after further process, thus granules of equal quality are produced.
- Roll Compactors are used for continuous processing of a wide variety of materials. It ensures easy and quick clean up required for frequent product changeover.
- The features of Roll Compactor are, it improve bulk density, to achieve better granulation of sieve analysis, improve product quality and reduce process cost.
- Scraper is used to prevent powder sticking on the rolls
- Well designed Roll Compactor consist of built-in panel and indicators, on-off, feed screw, main switch, forward & reverse switches, RPM indicators for roll and feed screw, emergency stop, digital RPM indicator etc.
Salient Features:
- Very compact design available in Plain, Water Jacketed or Flameproof Model.
- Screw is driven through mechanical variator. Safety slipping clutch between gearbox and feed screw.
- Rolls drive through twins shaft gearbox with speed drive unit coupled to it using coupling, which ensures synchronization of the rolls with a steady torque loading.
- Pre-densifier screw comprises of cylindrical or conical shape, which is well polished and made of AISI SS-304 quality material – SS 316 optional.
- Compacting rolls sleeves are made out of tool steel, hardened to 55 HRC approximately, and are keyed in to shafts and thus protected against axial slipping by thrust plates and bolts.
- The feed screw assembly can be lifted by hand-operated hydraulic pump. This facilitates ease in cleaning.
- Scrapper assembly also designed to dismantle for ease of cleaning.
- Pre-compression chamber guides the powder without any slippage or leakage.
- A separate panel board which consist all controls and indicators of the compactor are permanently built in namely, on/off rolls, on/off feed screw, main switch, forward/reverse switch, ammeters for rolls and feed screw and emergency stop to avoid short circuit or fire hazard at the time of cleaning with water.
Comminuting Mill
- Comminuting mill is used for wet and dry granulation, pulverization or dispersion of product
or ingredients in pharmaceutical, chemical, bulk drug, food & other industries.
- Comminuting mill is used for dry and wet granulation, pulverization of pharmaceutical ingredients.
- It consists of a stainless steel hopper through which the product slides into an enclosed chamber,
where it is milled between beaters and reduced to required size and finally collected in a container.
- The quality and output depends on the shape and size of the beater.
- Comminuting Mill is used in various industries such as for pharmaceutical, chemical,
bulk drugs, food, cosmetics, confectionery, fertilizers, insecticides, detergents etc.
Salient Features:
- GMP point of view machine is provided with S. S. cladding on base, S. S. belt guards, S. S. cover on motor.
No exposed painted surface on top of the machine. Motor rails, screw and guide rods are chrome plated.
- Beaters assembly bearings are in a separate pillow blocks for ease in maintenance.
- Very less down time as only beaters assembly will have to be reversed (and not the complete chamber) for making it knife to impact forward or vice-versa which can be done by single operator.
- Fixed beaters assembly is provided as a standard supply which increase the output by 10% to 30% reduce noise level and also ease to clean as there are no cavities. (If product demands, swing beaters assembly can be provided.)
- Beaters and shaft are of stainless steel 410 quality and beaters are further hardened and chrome plated. Beaters are fitted on a splined shaft.
- Transmission of heat to the chamber from bearings is minimum as they are away in separate pillow blocks. This facilitates to some extent in processing of heat sensitive products.
- Castors provided for mobility and breaks can be applied for fixing machine at one place.
- Beaters assembly is dynamically balanced which reduce vibration and noise level and increases bearings life.
- Machine is available in plain & water-jacketed models. Flame proof electricals can be provided on demand at extra cost.
Multi Mill
Multi mill is a self contained portable unit useful for high speed Granulating, Pulverizing, Mixing, Shredding and Chopping of awide range of wet and dry materials without special attachments.
- Multi Mill operates on the principle of variable force swing, beaters having both knife and impact edges rotating within a selected screen to get the required size reduction.
- Multi mill is designed to utilize the principle of variable force swing beaters having both knife and impact edges rotating within a selected screen to control the particle reduction, material fed in to the processing chamber moves to the periphery and passes through the screen radially and tangentially.
- Finally the processed material gets collected into the container kept below the processing chamber.
- As compared to the four common principal of size reduction i.e. grinding, compression impact and shearing, which often do not produce controlled size reduction, this machine utilizes the principle of variable force swing hammer blades having both knife and impact edges rotating with a carefully selected screen to control size reduction.
SPECIAL FEATURES
- Machine rated for continuous operation
- Higher output with process uniformity.
- All contact parts of SS 304 AISI (SS316 quality is optional).
- All contact parts can easily be dismantled and cleaned for change of product.
- Wide range of SS perforated or wire knifted screens available.
- Machine portable on castor wheels.
- Direction of blade rotation reversible.
- Different size of screen / speed/number of blade / direction of rotation of blade can be selectedUnique 3600 screen for higher out put.
- Additional perforated screen at the bottom of pulverising chamber to eliminate higher percentage of fineness and control granule size more effectively and obtain higher outputs.No expensive dust collection system required when used for pulverising.
APPLICATIONS
Chemicals, pharmaceuticals, dyestuff, colours, ceramics, food products, cosmetics, pesticides, fertilizers, plastics, spices, bakeries, resins, insecticides etc.
OPTIONAL
GMP model available with all contact parts in AISI 316 quality and mild steell cast iron parts outside cladded with AISI 304 quality stainless steel.

Fluid Bed Dryer
The fluid Bed Dryer are most suitable for drying granular crystalline, coarse or similar material in pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, dyes, food and allied products. The fluid Bed dryer is not suitable for drying liquid or pasty materials.
- Fluid bed dryer is designed to introduce the hot air stream at the base of the product container which is filled with the material.
- Induced draught is created by means of blower and fresh air is sucked in to the unit. This hot air system expands the bed of material at certain velocity & creating turbulence in the product. The phenomenon is known as fluidization and offer conditions which are almost ideal for drying.
- Fluidization produces full agitation of solid particles and since each particle gets surrounded by hot air, heat transfer is extremely high and uniform.
- The product is dried fast without appreciable loss of heat. Filter bags prevent particles escaping from the dryer.
- Fluid Bed Dryer occupy lesser floor space compare to conventional dryer and are very easy to operate and can dry material in least time as compared to tray dryer.
- In fluid Bed Dryer, temperature distribution through out the product is uniform and the heat transfer rate is very high. High production rates are achieved due to reduce drying time.
- As the product is in close contact with drying air at low temperature and also for short duration, the physical and chemical properties of the products are generally not effected and therefore the dryer can effectively be used for heat sensitive products.
- Due to the continuous movements of product during drying lump formation, case hardening etc. are minimized.

Tray Dryer
A tray Dryer is an enclosed insulated chamber in which trays are placed on top of each other in
trolleys. Tray Dryer are used where heating and drying are essential parts of manufacturing process in industries such as Chemicals, Dye stuff, Pharmaceutical, Food Products, Colours etc. The material to be dried either wet or solids are placed in the trays. Heat transfer is by circulation of hot air by electric heaters or steam in radiator coils. Blower fans are installed inside to ensure proper circulation and transfer of heat. A control panel to control the temperature and other parameteres is fixed outside the dryer. These dryers are available in Mild Steel, Stainless Steel or construction. Tray dryer is used for drying of pigments, food, bakery, electrodes, chemical and plastic powders.
DESCRIPTION
