Practically the very first equipment of Granulation Suite, it sets the tone of entire granulation process.

An engineering feat, executed with perfection, lets you mix, chop and mill the ingredients with ease. Controlled through PLC its mixer and chopper blades are unique in design, solid in strength and are perfectly aligned. The Co-Mill at the discharge port ensures the uniformity of the product without lumps, that is, an absolute essential requirement for next process.

While the mixer blade mixes the mass horizontally, the chopper located at right angle to mixer cuts and thus ensures even granulation of the mass.

A basic and essential machine

Moisture content of the mixed ingredients plays the most vital part in getting the right finished product.

For example no tablet can be formed even with the best of the ingredients unless the moisture content of the mass is maintained within very tight tolerances.

Solace Fluid Bed Dryers are the recognized leaders in the industry for giving un-surpassable performance.

The correct volume, velocity, direction and the temperature of the clean air is maintained throughout the fluidization by high end design of the retarding and expansion chambers, the design and the pitch of the perforations of the plate at the bottom of product container, the leak-proof fluidization space and the scientifically chosen material of the filters.

It is all made possible by our relentless R&D efforts where we aim for innovation and perfection continuously.

Solace Fluid Bed dryers are c-GMP compliant, made from best of the materials and are backed by documentation.

The rapid and uniform drying is achieved by exposing the full surface of every particle of the mass to the incoming high velocity Dry hot air.

All the process parameters are controlled by using latest computer hardware and software thus making equipment operationally safe and   eliminating the possibility of human judgment error and/ or not so perfect monitoring systems. The process consistency that is so vital for a good product is maintained for every batch every time.

Special design and components are offered for individual applications and customer requirements.
Environment friendly.

These Multi-functional Bed processors are an excellent choice for granule or pallete coating. Special Cartridge Filters mounted on inside top assure no escape for the product.

These Filters are autocleaned by air purging controlled through PLC.

Specially designed air distribution system and spray nozzles offer the latest in coating technology. Rapid and Uniform drying results in perfectly smooth and dimensionally controlled coating of the product.

The machine is ideal for obtaining uniform particles in Dry as well as Wet granules. The different sizes of particles can be achieved either by changing the perforated cone or by changing the RPM by means of Variable Frequency Drive (VFD).

This machine can be used for on line continuous untouch process by connecting with vacuum transfer system.

The machine is very compact in size and takes very small space. It is mounted on wheels for movement from on location to another.

The entire design of the housing is such that no powder/granule remains in the body.
Change To Perfectly smooth and polished interiors ensure that No Product sticks to the surface causing contamination of subsequent batches.

Bin Blender has been designed for completely automatic process of mixing. The equipment is constructed according to cGMP principles and is manufactured from AISI 316 grade stainless steel. The equipment is highly versatile as the bins of different sizes can be used. The versatile Bin Blender comprises of robotic pillars, rotary cubical cage, hydraulic bin lifting mechanism, locking mechanism, drive arrangement, auto braking system for perfect positioning of bin after stop command, laser sensing device for safety and smart PLC control.

Process

 
The equipment refuses to start if the bin is not locked properly. The parameters are programmed and the bin always stops in perfect vertical position. After stopping it can be lowered hydraulically and emptied. A printer port is provided to give the records of the process just completed.

The Solace Auto Coater has been designed to carry out most perfect and uniform coating with the minium intervention of the operator. Solace Auto Coater is designed as a free standing, totally enclosed unit, with inbuilt  muti nozzle CIP system.

The machine interiors are accessible through leak proof doors provided on rear, left and right sides. The unique VFD controlled perforated coating pan design utilizes a totally enclosed,highly efficient air flow system for maximum drying uniformity and minimum process time. Process air flows through the inlet duct and is directed down  to the product bed. The air exits under negative pressure through the exhaust plenum located under the tablet bed. Fully automated rotary valves on inlet and outlet ducts located in the technical area control the quantum of inlet and outlet air as per batch size. Matching solution pump and spray guns optimize the coating process.
