          MACHINE TYPE
          The high-shear mixer is a system for mixing, granulation and sieving of pharmaceutical powders and granulated products. Moreover, it is suitable for a wide range of cosmetics and food products. A three-bladed mixing tool rotates in a vertical, cylindrical mixing vessel close to the wall and to the bottom of the vessel. The shape and peripheral speed of the mixing tool create a vortex-like circulation of the mix. This product movement ensures very short mixing times in conjunction with excellent mixing quality and permits build-up of granulated products. A separately driven chopper is used for breaking up any agglomerated products as well as for moistening and granulation. Liquid addition is either gravimetric or uses a pump to add liquid directly to the effective range of the chopper, so that the best possible distribution is ensured. The optional wet sieve on the discharge ensures a completely homogeneous distribution of the granulate size.

          APPLICATIONS FIELDS

          Pharmaceutical industry (granulation of tablet recipes), Spice industry (mixing in of extracts), Cosmetics industry (production of facial powders):
          • PHARMACEUTICALS

            Lödige shovel dryers are batch vacuum dryers. The mixing elements are frequency-controlled for ideal adaptation to the process. Special rotating mixing elements, installed in a cylindrical drum equipped with a temperature control jacket, create a three-dimensional product movement (mechanically generated fluid bed). The resulting contact frequency of the particles with the heat exchange surface leads to incredibly short drying times.

            MASCHINE TYPE
            The granulation dryer is designed for continuous operation. A unique property of this dryer is its combination of convection and contact drying. Adaptation of the retention time to the specific process ensures that products are dried at low temperatures, i.e. gently. At the same time, excellent granulation of the final product can be achieved. The continuous granulation dryer is particularly suitable for drying and product formulation of substances with problematic flow characteristics and a changing consistency (multi-phase process).

              • 造粒和
              • Coating

              The processor operates in batch mode. The heated supply air is evenly distributed by the special Conidur® floor plate of the product container, fluidises the product and keeps it floating. This helps to achieve excellent heat transmission and high drying rates. Integrated jet filters separate the product chamber from the clean gas chamber. The particles drop back into the processor and remain in the process. The processing air exits the processor at the endplate.

                  • Even distribution of the suspension
                  • Process conditions comparable to Lödige production coaters
                  • User-friendly: Easy handling, intuitive operation

                  MACHINE TYPE
                  The Lödige laboratory tablet coater has a modular design, so that integration of any components is customised according to the customer’s specific requirements.

                  The coater is designed for great functionality, user-friendliness and quick, efficient processes. All easily dismantled components have a low weight.

                  A dividable drum and a dividable nozzle arm allow processing of even very small volumes (0.6 l).

                  The coater and the optionally available liquid supply station consist of Corian®, a highly resistant, light-weight, FDA-approved material, which is crucial for the particularly functional and modern design of the laboratory coater system.

                  The laboratory coater is not just a “laboratory machine”, but a full coating system, in which process conditions comparable to those of Lödige production coaters are generated.

                • THE LÖDIGE COATER SYSTEM

                • Filling level variability without drum replacement

                  The extremely low height of the mixing elements permits a high degree of filling level variability.
                  Even application and short process times

                  The high number of mixing elements and nozzles ensures ideal distribution and leads to low variance in the evenness of application.
                  High-speed = Time is money

                  The even air distribution throughout the entire drum length ensures that the drying effectiveness is high and permits high spray rates.
                  Optimised air routing: A quality improvement

                  This air routing prevents spray drying, increases service life for campaign production and reduces the cleaning workload.
                  Simple cleaning

                  A sophisticated cleaning system and its great mechanical effect make cleaning quick and efficient. This saves time, cleaning agents and energy.

                      MACHINE TYPE
                      The high-shear mixer is a system for mixing, granulation and sieving of pharmaceutical powders and granulated products. Moreover, it is suitable for a wide range of cosmetics and food products. A three-bladed mixing tool rotates in a vertical, cylindrical mixing vessel close to the wall and to the bottom of the vessel. The shape and peripheral speed of the mixing tool create a vortex-like circulation of the mix. This product movement ensures very short mixing times in conjunction with excellent mixing quality and permits build-up of granulated products. A separately driven chopper is used for breaking up any agglomerated products as well as for moistening and granulation. Liquid addition is either gravimetric or uses a pump to add liquid directly to the effective range of the chopper, so that the best possible distribution is ensured. The optional wet sieve on the discharge ensures a completely homogeneous distribution of the granulate size.

                        Process-specific solutions for mixing, homogenization, compounding, granulation, encasing/coating, agglomeration, compacting, heating and cooling are used for the respective applications of the plastics industry.

                        Today’s plastics industry demands not just solutions for treatment of plastic melts, which are primarily characterised by high throughput volumes, but increasingly also requires specific applications for speciality products as well as treatment processes using highly sophisticated process systems.

                      • PROCESS ENGINEERING SOLUTIONS

                        这个过程在化学indu工程任务stry are highly diverse. Lödige solutions are used for the following main processes:

                        MECHANICAL PROCESSING OF PRODUCTS
                        MECHANICAL AND THERMAL TREATMENT OF PRODUCTS
                        It is possible to complete multiple process steps in one single Lödige machine. This is called the “all-in-one process”. In many cases, the Lödige machine is used within a production line, where it can perform several different process steps and complete different recipes in a reproducible manner due to the adapted control system.

                        Our customers contact us with an application and we verify its feasibility, develop and fine-tune it at our in-house test centre through realistic production trials. After completing and evaluating these trials, we can design a suitable, optimised machine and advise our customer with regard to purposeful process control.
