Briquetting and Granulation by Compaction New Granulator-Compactor for the Pharmaceutical Industry

This document shows the agglomeration and granulation by compacting techniques. After a theoretical principle of the tangent wheel press, a technical description explains its main parts: feeding systems, roll building, hydraulic system, instrumentationThose techniques are used in many applications with several various objectives: each product has a special condition of treatment: pressure, temperature, binder eventually. The size range of the compactors is very large: up to 100 Metric Tons per HourThanks to a long experience in the granulation by compacting Sahut Conreur has developed a new compactor-granulator for the pharmaceutical industry in collaboration with the Laboratory of Pharmacotechnology - Faculty of Pharmacy of Lille
