Vertical Extruder Overview:

The extruder is based on a unique low shear technology designed to reduce labor input and temperature rise. It is ideal for heat sensitive products. A wide range of extruder mesh apertures are available and a variety of configurations can be offered to optimize pellet diameter, surface quality and product size distribution. 

Suitable for both batch and continuous production, the extruder has no dead space and no visible material retention. The compact design allows for easy installation and cleaning.

Extruder Features:

- High throughput material handling capacity can be achieved with a simple configuration of the extruder.　　　　　

- High product quality  

- Efficient low shear technology

- Small footprint

- Wide range of extrusion screens available

- Easy to clean

Rounding Machine Overview:

This rounding machine is characterized by smooth edges and close fitting friction wheels to achieve well formed spherical particles and uniform particle size distribution. The structural design eliminates the technical susceptibility to fines of conventional processes. Optimization of the process is achieved by selecting the cycle time, turntable speed, product loading, friction pattern and adjusting the airflow around the turntable.

Rounding Machine Features:

- This rounding machine is fed directly from the extruder. For high volume applications, one continuous extruder can butt two rounders.

- Good pellet spherical shape - No fines in the product - Easy to operate - Easy to clean

Characteristics of products made by vertical extruding and rounding machine

- Short granulation time and high yield without screening. 

- The process operation is carried out in the wet state, avoiding dust flying, in line with GMP requirements. 

- The prepared micro-pills have good roundness, which creates excellent conditions for the next step of coating operation and saves the coating cost greatly, and the micro-pills have good fluidity, which provides the conditions for the accurate measurement of capsule dispensing. 

- The prepared micro-pills have narrow particle size distribution band, high strength, high density, high product yield, high one-time qualification rate, good reproducibility between batches, and can be prepared with high drug loading capacity. 

- Easy to realize the mixing between incompatible active ingredients. 

- High degree of automation of the equipment, easy to operate, saving labor costs.
