Pharmaceutical Fluid Bed Dryer Manufacturer

Pharmaceutical Fluid Bed Dryer Manufacturer

A PharmaceuticalFluid Bed Dryer Manufacturer specializes in the design, production, and supply of high-performance drying systems used for moisture removal from powders, granules, and pellets in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and allied industries. Fluid bed dryers operate on the principle of fluidization, where hot air is passed through a perforated bed of solid particles to achieve uniform drying with high thermal efficiency.

FAQs – Pharmaceutical Fluid Bed Dryer Manufacturer

1. What is a Fluid Bed Dryer used for in pharmaceuticals?
   It's used to dry wet granules or powders uniformly after wet granulation or before compression into tablets or capsules.
2. How does a Fluid Bed Dryer work?
   It works by blowing hot air through a perforated distributor plate, fluidizing the material and removing moisture rapidly and evenly.
3. What materials are used in manufacturing?
   Typically SS304 or SS316 stainless steel for product contact parts to ensure hygiene and corrosion resistance.
4. Is the equipment GMP compliant?
   Yes, top manufacturers design the dryers to meet GMP/cGMP and FDA regulatory requirements.
5. What are the typical batch sizes or capacities?
   Capacities range from 5 kg (lab-scale) to 500 kg or more (production-scale).
6. Is the Fluid Bed Dryer suitable for heat-sensitive materials?
   Yes, with precise temperature control and uniform drying, it's ideal for thermally sensitive pharmaceutical compounds.
7. What kind of control systems are offered?
   Manual, semi-automatic, and fully automated PLC/HMI-based controls with temperature, airflow, and timing adjustments.
8. Can filters and explosion vents be included?
   Yes, HEPA filters, explosion vents, CIP/WIP systems, and flameproof options are available.
9. What validation support is provided?
   Reputed manufacturers offer full validation documentation: DQ, IQ, OQ, and PQ protocols.
10. Is after-sales service available?
    Yes. Manufacturers provide commissioning, training, spare parts, and AMC services globally.
