A Glatt VG (Vertical Granulator) allows
extremely fast Wet
Granulation with high granulate densities and thus very good particle
stability. Batch sizes from 100l to 3000l/batch.
|
|
|
Ideal process partner. Manufacture
of moist granulates, dried granulates or pellets.
Unique technology. Patented
"Z"-rotor, cylindrical and conical working vessels.
Simple handling. Dust-free
filling and emptying.
User-friendly control
system. Manual, semi-automatic or fully automatic process
control.
The VGPRO design. 12
bar pressure shock resistant, minimal weight - globally unique standard.
The VG design. 2 bar (overpressure)
pressure shock resistant - the classical safety standard in Glatt quality.
ATEX 100a. Proven safety for VGPRO and VG.

Ideal process partner
A vertical granulator is therefore the perfect partner for a Fluid Bed Dryer for optimum economy. Pellets can be
manufactured if the vertical granulator is combined with a Spheronizer/Pelletizer for subsequent spheronization of the
granulate (-> Process
Lines). Single-Pot Systems also provide the
facility to dry the granulate. For the use of organic solvents, the vertical
granulator can be combined with a special vacuum system with integral solvent
recovery.

|
Unique technology
Due to the consistent modular design, the system can be configured
individually and easily matched to the constructional circumstances and specific
requirements. The heart of the Glatt vertical granulator is the patented
"Z"-shaped rotor blade. This and various product-optimized chopper designs are
the result of many years of successful development and cooperation with the
Japanese specialist, Powrex.

Cylindrical working vessel
For non-sticky products in campaign production. Also for various processes
with different accessory configurations. In this case, nozzles and additional
equipment are arranged extensively on the cover.

Conical working vessel
For sticky products and similar processes with identical accessory
configurations.

Simple handling
Can easily be incorporated into horizontal or vertical product flow. The
vertical granulator can be filled manually by means of containers with lift and
transporter devices (or charging stations) or pneumatically by means of suction
conveyor systems. The granulate is discharged from the working vessel into a
fluid bed machine or a container, either gravimetrically or by means of
pneumatic conveyors. (-> Product Handling)
A GSF Rotor Mill is often used downstream
in order to achieve a homogeneous granulate spectrum.

User-friendly control system
Glatt offers the customized EcoView and
MegaView control systems with simple,
logically designed operator guidances, clear process visualizations as well as
detailed and informative process documentation. Qualification and Validation of our control systems are,
of course, possible - right up to GAMP 4. All control systems are designed
in-house by Glatt based on hardware and software that has become established
throughout the world. Your advantages are long-term investment security,
superiour plant availability, and immediate and rapid support.

The VGPROdesign
The PRO Concept for
more safety with less weight!
- globally unique 12bar pressure shock resistance
- contained design
- new design and special materials for low weight
- pneumatic sealing with Glatt-C flanges
- no need for explosion protection measures between fluid bed dryer and
vertical granulator
- confirms to ATEX standards with CE labels or EC Manufacturer's Declarations
(for partial machines) - can be fitted through-the-wall - clean separation of production and
equipment. Maintenance and service work can be carried out on the unit during
production and without bringing maintenance personnel into the GMP area.
- suitable for WIP/CIP A PRO system is ready to meet any requirement,
whether it be an effective WIP pre-cleaning system or a fully automatic,
validatable CIP cleaning process.
With the SC SuperClean® concept,
Glatt is offering a patented technology, which sets the standard world-wide for
the cleaning of fluid bed systems. WIP/CIP racks, see (-> Cleaning Systems).
