Glatt high-shear mixers and wet granulators VG, TMG and TwinPro
Glatt vertical high-shear granulation units featuring patented Z-style impeller blades produce uniform, high-density agglomerates in abbreviated cycle times. The bowl geometry eliminates dead corners, dispersing binder liquid evenly across powder formulations without localized overheating.

Glatt perforated pan coaters GCC and GCSmart for tablet coating
Glatt fully perforated drum coaters GCC and GCSmart deliver uniform film and sugar coating onto pharmaceutical tablet cores. Advanced air-handling plenums and angled mixing baffles promote continuous core turnover, preventing edge chipping and ensuring smooth surface finish on delicate solids.
- Coater models GCC 60, GCC 120, GCSmart 350 and modular research coaters GC 1
- Articulated spray arm assemblies with anti-bearding air atomizing spray nozzles
- Bi-directional drum baffles for gentle particle movement and rapid discharge
- Integrated cleaning-in-place CIP wash manifolds with orbital spray devices
Glatt basket extruders GBE and spheronizers P series for pelletizing
Extrusion and spheronization lines from Glatt convert moist powder masses into uniform cylindrical extrudates and spherical micropellets. These processing systems serve the manufacture of controlled-release multi-particulate solid dosage forms and high-performance catalyst matrices.
- Continuous basket extruders GBE 130 and production twin-screw extruders GBE
- Centrifugal spheronizers P 20, P 50 and P 100 with cross-hatch friction discs
- Interchangeable stainless steel extrusion screens with apertures from 0.5 to 2.5 mm
- Variable friction plate rotational velocity with temperature sensor interfaces
Glatt conical rotor sieves GSE and sizing mills for dry powders
Glatt GSE conical rotor screen mills perform gentle delumping, size reduction, and particle classification on dry or damp agglomerates. The conical geometry promotes narrow particle size distribution without excessive thermal stress or excessive generation of nuisance fine dust.
- Conical mill configurations GSE 100, GSE 150 and GSE 250 for cleanroom suites
- Rotor geometry selections including round-bar, square-bar and knife profiles
- Perforated conical screening screens with round, square and grater patterns
- Tool-free sanitary Tri-Clamp quick-release clamps for rapid cleaning teardown
Glatt spouted bed systems ProCell and AGT continuous processors
Glatt ProCell spouted bed platforms and AGT granulators process sticky solutions, high-viscosity slurries, and sensitive biological powders. The rectangular process chamber delivers high specific evaporation rates and continuous agglomeration for difficult powders.
- Modular plant series ProCell LabSystem and scalable ProCell PilotSystem
- Rectangular multi-chamber processing envelope supporting continuous processing
- Direct granulation and encapsulation of cohesive or sticky bulk suspensions
- Spray nozzles coupled with integrated dust recovery cyclones and blowback filters
Airflow dynamics and thermal control in Glatt fluidized bed systems
In Glatt GPCG and WSG fluidized bed processors, uniform aerodynamic air distribution across the lower Conidur plenum plate governs thermal consistency. Precision-punched perforation geometries eliminate stagnant powder zones while preventing bulk product sift-through into the lower plenum chamber.
During top-spray granulation and Wurster bottom-spray film layering, stable atomization air pressure and accurate spacing between the air plate and partition tube prove vital.
Precision pneumatic spray nozzle assemblies produce monodisperse droplet patterns, preventing premature particle aggregation and localized overwetting across the batch charge.
Mixing kinematics and wet granulation in Glatt VG and TwinPro units
Glatt vertical high-shear granulators VG and TwinPro combine a high-efficiency three-blade Z-impeller with an auxiliary high-speed chopper assembly.
The contoured Z-blade geometry establishes a toroidal circulation flow, lifting powder formulations along temperature-regulated vessel walls toward the central hub.
Engineered clearance between impeller tips and the polished bowl base prevents agglomerate buildup when dispersing liquid binders into dry formulations.
Mechanical drive shaft seals with continuous clean air barrier purges prevent fine powder penetration into bearing housings during extended production campaigns.
Thermal equilibrium and suspension delivery in GCC perforated pan coaters
Application of protective and functional coatings onto pharmaceutical tablet cores in Glatt GCC and GCSmart drum coaters depends on steady thermal balances and controlled tumbling dynamics.
The fully perforated coater drum paired with angled internal mixing baffles facilitates three-dimensional tablet circulation without chipping delicate tablet edges.
An articulated spray arm fitted with anti-bearding Schlick atomizers incorporates independent atomizing and pattern air regulation lines to prevent nozzle fouling. Chamber differential pressure controls prevent the escape of volatile vapors into the surrounding cleanroom.
Rheology and extrusion kinematics in Glatt GBE basket extrusion units
In Glatt GBE 130 basket extruders and twin-screw extrusion systems, wet powder pastes undergo uniform radial compaction through perforated cylindrical screen dies.
Engineered cutting and feed impeller contours generate balanced extrusion pressure without high hydraulic shear, protecting sensitive binder polymers and preventing thermal degradation.
Extruded cylindrical strands discharge onto the patterned friction plate of a P series spheronizer, where centrifugal force and plate friction transform extrudates into dense spherical micropellets with uniform surface characteristics.
Particle size classification and milling in Glatt GSE conical rotor sieves
Glatt GSE conical rotor screen mills deliver uniform size calibration of dry and damp powders following granulation and drying stages.
A driven impeller with calibrated gap dimensions gently forces agglomerated particles through the apertures of a conical screen without shattering primary crystal matrices.
Diverse rotor geometries provide tailored processing actions: round-bar impellers ensure gentle disagglomeration, while knife-edge assemblies mill dense agglomerates. Sanitary Tri-Clamp connections simplify teardown for cleaning and screen changeover between product campaigns.
Hydrodynamic circulation and microencapsulation in ProCell spouted bed plants
Glatt ProCell rectangular spouted bed systems process cohesive powders, high-viscosity emulsions, and heat-sensitive biological suspensions in continuous throughput regimes.
Process air entering via an adjustable bottom gap creates a high-velocity central spout into which liquid feed is sprayed via integral dual-fluid nozzles. Rapid particle and droplet circulation achieves instantaneous solvent evaporation and controlled shell growth around microcores.
The processing chamber with integrated classifying discharge weirs enables automated extraction of target-size granules from the continuous stream.
