For fifty years, Aeromatic-Fielder™ has supplied fluid bed processors for
blending, granulating, drying, pelletizing and coating to the pharmaceutical
industry.
This includes small capacity systems designed for R&D as well as
industrial size plants for batch production of pharmaceutical compounds under
cGMP conditions. Using proven standard components, Aeromatic-Fielder™ can
supply both simplicity and flexibility in plant design. User selected process
options, cleaning equipment, control systems and PAT technologies combine in a
system to meet process requirements exactly. This approach ensures that
qualification and validation procedures are kept to a minimum.
Processing
Modules:
- Dryer – with very short process time
- Top Spray Granulator – granulation and drying in a single pot process
- Spray Dryer Granulator – with batch or continuous discharge
- Precision Granulator™ – 'novel' granulation process
- Precision Coater™ – high spray rates for short processes
Plant design:
- Through-the-wall configuration
- A range of solvent emission controls
- Inlet air preparation unit – Inlet air is treated using a series of filters
and conditioning units according to the sensitivity of the process and the
ambient climatic conditions
- A range of process filters that can be interchanged for more than one type
of process.
Unique to
Aeromatic-Fielder fluid beds:
- Non-Sifting Gill Plate™ air distributor technology – uses an innovative
design and a directed airflow to offer excellent uniformity of air
distribution, for improved processing and product discharge
- Inlet air plenum – a novel air inlet plenum improves performance and
reduces equipment height
- Most advance CIP technology that can be integrated with up- downstream
equipment – CIP system allows cleaning to take place without removal of the
process filters
Process Control &
Monitoring:
- A range of control systems for maximum level of flexibility and
functionality for process visualisation, automation and data recording
- PAT Integration – Combining process monitoring using online analysers,
together with solid process engineering principles and advanced process
modelling techniques will
enable processes to be actively controlled in
order to compensate for minor input variations (eg. raw materials) so that the
specifications for the final product will be closer to the ideal target
Containment:
- Complete contained processing, utilizing BuckŪ high containment technology
- Product sampling
Continuous Improvement
for Safety:
- EC type approved for pressure shock resistant integrated systems
Process assistance from GPS Technology Centre:
- A complete range of R & D and product testing services
- Test and optimise existing processes
- Develop new procedures
- Perform pilot scale production of any aqueous or solvent based
pharmaceutical product.
- Demonstration and training facilities
Aeromatic-Fielder fluid bed product range:
- Development: MP-Micro™, Strea-1™, MP-1™, batches 20g - 6kg
- Pilot Scale: batches 1-30kg
- Production Scale: batches 15-1200kg
Integration for optimum
process efficiency
Our complete range of process equipment is designed with system integration
in mind. A modular approach allows customers to select standard process modules
to suit project
needs. Fluid bed dryers and coaters can be combined with
top drive and bottom-drive high shear mixer-granulators, wet and dry milling
facilities, product handling systems, binder and
coating preparation units,
filtration units, all designed for fully integrated systems. Safety,
containment, product flow and building requirements are in-built for full
integration for optimum process efficiency.
