Most solid dosage drugs are manufactured using “batch” technology, a process where the finished product has been made after many stops and starts in a series of steps. In comparison, “continuous manufacturing” enables much faster production and more reliable products through an uninterrupted process.
Freund-Vector has developed the Granuformer®, a continuous granulation and drying system. Continuous granulation occurs by a twin extruder and vertical granulator while the continuous drying is done by a spiral dryer. The Granuformer® produces granules equivalent of fluid bed granules, perfect for tableting. See illustrations below.
