Key Features
Optimized Design:
The HSMG features a cylindrical mixing bowl with an inverted cone at the top, which creates a vortex flow to optimize both the mixing and granulation processes.
Impeller & Cutting Blade Technology:
- The main impeller ensures even distribution of all components.
- Modular cutting blades efficiently disperse the binder and ensure uniform compression of the granules.
- The chopper system is capable of operating with small batches, starting from just 40% of maximum capacity.
- Gansons’ proprietary mechanical seals prevent any particles from entering the machine shaft.
- Designed to withstand shock pressures of up to 12 bar.
IMPELIFT™ System:
The IMPELIFT™ system enables the impeller to be lifted for easy cleaning without disassembly, thereby reducing maintenance and handling efforts.
Automation and Process Control:
- Equipped with an IPC/PLC system offering functionalities such as:
- Formulation management
- Data logging compliant with 21 CFR Part 11
- Control of the mixing/granulation sequence
- Optional SCADA integration
- Precise endpoint determination is achieved by monitoring parameters such as current intensity, torque, and power consumption.
Compliance with cGMP and Safety Standards:
- Designed to meet stringent hygiene and safety standards for food and pharmaceutical applications.
- All contact parts are made of SS 316L stainless steel or FDA-approved materials (including gaskets, seals, filter bags, etc.).
- A pneumatic rotating lid system enhances operator safety.
- Includes a Lockout-Tagout safety system.
Easy Cleaning and Maintenance:
- Features an in-place cleaning (WIP) system with high-pressure spray nozzles and an integrated pump.
- Cutting blades are easily removable for cleaning and inspection.
- The Duo Seal system helps prevent powder dust ingress and reduces the risk of cross-contamination.
Technical Specifications:
- Flexible Capacity: The equipment can handle small batches (starting at 40% capacity) up to large-scale production.
- Drive Motor: The bevel helical gear system reduces wear and ensures long-term precision.
- Compliance Standards: cGMP, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, CE, UL, ATEX, ISO 9001.
