Laboratory multi-process pharma R&D equipment for granulation drying coating and blending
Pharmaceutical R&D requires flexible equipment that can handle multiple process steps with small batch sizes while maintaining containment, repeatability, and data integrity. Combining processes in a single system reduces material loss and simplifies development workflows.
Perform granulation drying coating milling and blending in one contained system
The Gansons inONERD is a laboratory-scale multi-processing system designed to perform multiple pharmaceutical unit operations within a single compact platform. The system integrates coating, high shear granulation, fluidized bed drying, milling, sifting, and blending, allowing multi-stage processing without transferring material between machines.The equipment is designed for small batch sizes of approximately 150 to 300 g, making it suitable for feasibility studies and development of high-value or potent products. A central drive system enables tool-less changeover between process modules, allowing a single operator to switch between operations efficiently.
The integrated fluid bed dryer uses a cyclonic air distribution system to improve air-to-particle contact, reduce drying time, and ensure uniform drying results. The high shear mixer granulator supports rapid and homogeneous granule formation, while interchangeable milling and sifting modules allow precise particle size control.The system is fully contained and isolator compatible, supporting the safe handling of potent compounds such as oncological or hormonal products. Built-in air handling, recipe management, and data integrity features ensure compliance with pharmaceutical development requirements.
