Pelletizer for pharmaceutical and biotech applications

Achieve precise pellet formation with adjustable pan angles and liquid addition, ideal for creating uniform granules and beads in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical production lines.

The Pelletizer GTE from ERWEKA GmbH is engineered to revolutionize granulation in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical production. Its unique design incorporates a 300 mm diameter pan connected to the AR 403 via the Universal Gear UG, allowing for adjustable angles to optimize pellet formation. This equipment excels in both manual and continuous operations, catering to diverse product types including solid, liquid, and granules. Its stainless steel construction ensures durability and contamination-free processing, crucial for GMP and FDA compliance. Designed for R&D and processing environments, the Pelletizer GTE provides precise control over pellet size through adjustable pan angles and liquid addition, making it indispensable for creating pharmaceutical granules, nutraceutical beads, and dietary supplement pellets. Integration into production lines is seamless, accommodating upstream mixing and downstream pellet collection, while maintaining energy efficiency through optimized motor control. Additionally, ongoing engineering support enables customization to meet specific process requirements, ensuring the equipment aligns with your production goals.
