Lab Fluid Bed Processor & Coater

Application & Process

The prism compact NewLABOgranulatorcoater-COMBO model Fluid bed technology is a offer an effective and efficient method for drying, granulating, agglomerating and granules/ pellet coating. The Fluid Bed Equipment has universal application. You can combine with mixing as a very rapid dryer in combo with suitable nozzle system a combined granulator, dryer and coater.

The overall concepts of the NewLABOgranulatorcoater-COMBO steam from similar of process based on production model and common needs of consistent processing and ease for operation and cleaning.

1. The Drying process : Warm air is blown through a perforated distributor to rapidly and gently dry materials until the required residual moisture content is reached. Moisture evaporated from product is exhausted with drying air.

2. The Granulating by Top Spraying System : The top spray granulator agglomerates finer particles into larger, free flowing granulates in a one pot process. Ingredients are mixed and pre-heated by an upward flow of heated air. Granulation occurs by spraying liquid into the fluidized powder. The granules are subsequently dried with heated air. The top spray granulator can also used for top spray coating, layering from liquids, and instantizing.

3. The Pellets Coating by Bottom Spraying – Wurster System : A bottom sprays apparatus capable of the controlled application uniform layers of solid onto small to medium sized particles without agglomeration. Movement of both hot air and product is controlled by the apparatus to ensure that the heating in the process air is used for vaporization of the liquid and not undesirable heating of the product. The objects being processed are coated and dried in the coating column means wurster coater, and return to the bed in a non tacky condition for another layer of coating.
