  1.  

    Granulation systems can be combined with fluid bed dryers so that the drying, mixing, granulation, finishing, and cooling operations are completed in the same process.

     

    While it’s true that fluidized bed drying can be used in a variety of industries, arguably it has its greatest impact on pharmaceuticals.  By using a fluid bed dryer, the moisture content of pharmaceutical granules and powder can be decreased in a consistent manner. Fluid bed drying technology has replaced the traditional method of drying products in trays; the result of which has been considerably shorter drying times along with even drying conditions for a uniform final product.

    Fluid bed dryer granulator  provide the best solution for drying many products, but especially products within the pharmaceutical industry. With the system, inlet air temperature can be controlled so that the correct amount of moisture evaporates from the surface of the granule. An inlet air temperature that’s too high can result in a surface crust that prevents deeper moisture from being transported to the surface, delaying the drying process rather than accelerating it.

     

     

    What You Need in a Fluid Bed Dryer

     

    When you’re looking to invest in a Rapid dryer system, keep in mind all the features that are important to you and don’t compromise.

    What you don’t need is a traditional convey or belt dryer that takes up more space and requires more maintenance. Avoid settling for a fluid bed dryer with outdated decks that don’t allow for full airflow or evenly distributed heat. Remove the need for constant watch, lubrication, and unclogging of a traditional dryer by choosing all that is available in a quality fluid bed processor:

     

    • Heat transfer with minimal energy consumption: energy efficient
    • Multi-functional: capable of heating, drying, cooling, coating, and more
    • Adaptable to continuous or batch processing
    • Manufactured from stainless steel, carbon steel, or nickel alloy
    • Low maintenance

     

     

    VJ Instruments fluid bed dryers have all the above-listed features and technical engineers can help you plan, install, and maintain your equipment for efficient, optimum output.

    Rapid dryers work well with many sizes of particles and types of materials to remove high amounts of moisture. It doesn’t matter if the particles are lightweight and fine, or bulky and heavy –  fluid bed dryers can successfully achieve drying specifications. The particles that enter the fluid drying bed can exit with the same particle shape and size, but dry. Plus, fluid bed dryers are simple and safe to clean, no crawling into man ports required.
