The PCI Fluid Bed Processor ensures enhanced performance. The drying time in the machine is much less than in the conventional model. There is minimum involvement of manual labor, simplified maintenance, and utilizing modular construction techniques to provide flexible installation options.

PharmaChem is at the forefront of technological advancements, providing state-of-the-art machinery that incorporates the latest innovations in the industry. With a commitment to quality and reliability, the pharmaChem industry delivers solutions tailored to meet diverse needs. Fluid Bed Processor Manufacturers in Maharashtra provide a two-piece unit crafted from SS-304/316 stainless steel. Each fluid bed dryer undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure optimal performance, reliability, and safety. We prioritize quality to give you peace of mind and uninterrupted operations.

This unit is designed to perform multiple operations such as mixing dry powders, agglomeration, granulation, and drying within a single system. A fluid bed processor combines these processes efficiently, reducing handling time and improving overall productivity in pharmaceutical manufacturing.

As one of the trusted Fluid Bed Processor manufacturers in India, these systems are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry to effectively reduce moisture content in granules and powders. The fluid bed processor ensures uniform drying by maintaining consistent airflow and controlled temperature throughout the product bed.

Also referred to as a fluidized bed dryer, the equipment offers excellent gas–particle interaction. This allows the fluid bed processor to achieve a high rate of moisture removal, resulting in improved mass transfer and superior heat transfer efficiency without damaging heat-sensitive materials.

The controlled fluidization process enables particles to move freely, ensuring even exposure to heated air. Due to this design, the fluid bed processor delivers consistent product quality, uniform particle size distribution, and reduced drying time.

With its versatile design, the fluid bed processor is suitable for a wide range of pharmaceutical applications, including drying of granules for tablets and capsules. Its closed-system operation also supports cGMP compliance, hygiene, and operator safety.

Overall, the fluid bed processor is a reliable and efficient solution for modern pharmaceutical production, offering high performance, process flexibility, and energy-efficient operation.

Fluid Bed Processor

Finger Bag Unit

  • Top filter ring: It grips the top end of the filter bag. This ring is linked to the shaking pneumatic lock assembly. (MOC SS 304)
  • Bottom filter ring: The other end of the filter bag is devoted to this ring through a clamping assembly. (MOC SS 316)
  • Filter Bag: A filter bag is used to recall the fines. (PC Satin)

Filter Bag Shaking Cylinder

  • This cylinder shakes the filter bag at prearranged intervals to bring back the penalties into product containers which are deposited in the bag during the process. Shaker pneumatic assembly grips the bag assembly.

Spraying System

  • Spray Pump with Trolley: A Spray pump is used to deliver the binder resolution from the tank to the spray nozzle. Spray pump speed modification can be done through a functioning panel or on the spray pump. It is mounted on the distinct SS 304 Trolley.
  • The spray nozzle is employed to release the binder solution into the fluidized bed. Multiple height mountings at the spray port in the retarding chamber allow for vertical adjustments of the nozzle. (Material of Construction: SS-316L)

Damper OR Control Flap

  • The inlet damper, situated on the bottom chamber flange, serves to block water entry into the inlet duct during washing and prevents air suction from the inlet air handler during suction charging. This damper operates on an ON/OFF basis. (Material of Construction: SS-304).
  • Outlet damper regulates airflow based on product and process requirements, aided by a proportionate valve controlled through I/P. (Material of Construction: SS-304).

Blower

  • The airflow through the machine is created by the blower by generating suction. It is placed at the outlet end.
  • The assortment of the blower depends on the airflow necessity. (MOC MS/AL. WITH EPOXY PAINTED & SPARK PROOF CONSTRUCTION)

Inlet Air Handling Unit

  • Standard AHU is a dual skin 50mm PUF separated unit having SS304 sheet inside & MS powder coated sheet outside. It contains a steam heater with counter flange, Face and bypass system, EU4 (10 microns), EU7 (5 microns) Filter & EU14 (HEPA), and ON/OFF type steam Valve.
  • Support Column frame: It supports the Functioning control panel, Pneumatic control panel, Main Body housing, and also the bottom chamber. (MS WITH SS 304 CLADDING)
  • The temperature at the inlet is measured using a provision in the duct, allowing for the setting of the desired temperature through PLC. As the temperature approaches the set value, the face portion gradually closes.
  • Outlet temperature is measured through a provision at the outlet to gauge the air temperature as it exits the fluid bed processor. As the incoming air passes through the product, transferring heat to it, the processed air exits through the outlet filter. The temperature of this air is displayed on the PLC.

Operating Control Panel (Basic PLC System)

  • The control panel (mounted on the lateral support) is made from SS 304. A 10” color HMI is mounted to operate the machine through PLC.
  • One emergency push button is set for shutting the machine off in any improbable event. (In the case of the flameproof machine it is mounted individually on the lateral support)
  • One pressure device for monitoring pneumatic pressure for machine operation
  • Two Pressure instruments to monitor sealing pressures
  • Gauges to monitor variance pressure across product / bottom screen
  • One manual setting knob with dial gauge for modifying atomization air pressure
  • Pneumatic switch and sign for filter bag locking
  • Perforated Plate: Having many holes of equal diameter for constant distribution of air through the product.
  • Bottom sieve: The Dutch weave sieve acts as a product retentive filter.
  • Sight glass: To view the drive of the product.
  • Triclover for sensor: Enables mounting of product temp. Sensor, which measures product temperature.
  • Sampling Device: A device for easy removal of samples during the process.
  • PZ sieve (Dutch mesh): Detachable PZ sieve simplifies easy washing and cleaning.
  • Trolley: The product container is riding on the mobile trolley for easy drive having PU wheels. (MOC SS 304)

The following functions will be activated through the PLC:

    • Expand / Reduce filter sealing
    • Expand / Reduce container sealing
    • Exhaust air temperature – pre-set, actual, minimum, and maximum
    • Product air temperature – pre-set, actual, minimum & maximum
    • Inlet air temperature – pre-set and definite with PID control
    • Pneumatic filter Bag shaking device Auto/ Manual
    • Filter shaking interval

    • Process on/off
    • Heater on/off
    • Spray on/off
    • Different safety alarms & safety interlock
    • Recipe parameters, Batch code, Operator code, Product code, Batch parameters, Process parameters such as Temperature, Blower speed, Process time, etc.

    Electric panel

    All the electrical control modules like the contactor, relay & transformer, etc. are mounted inside the M.S. Powder Coated panel which is positioned in the service area.

    Pneumatic panel

    All pneumatic components are attached inside the S.S.304 panel and fitted on the support column of the machine.

Spray and retarding chamber

  • It comprises an expansion zone with a fitted spray nozzle and the upper section of the filter housing where the filter bag assembly is positioned.
  • For the vertical modifications of the nozzle, multiple height mountings at spray ports are provided.
  • Two sight glasses are included, with the lower one for observing the spray jet and the upper one for filter-locking devices.
  • For better brightness, a light source is provided.
  • The foremost chamber & product container has a flange to fit the Blow-up seal to succeed in leakproof operation.
