Zhejiang Canaan Technology Granulators, Tablet Presses and Coaters

Selection and quotation of Canaan solid dosage equipment: LHS high shear mixers, FZ and LGX granulators, ZL mills, HZD bin blenders, T420 tablet presses, BGX coaters and CAP capsule fillers.

LHS and LHSS High Shear Mixers

The LHS mixes powder, charges binder and granulates in one bowl: the impeller moves material axially, radially and tangentially, and the chopper cuts the wet mass into granules. PLC control with frequency drives. The LHSS series covers laboratory work.

Bowl volume: 25-1500 L
Impeller power: 2.2-75 kW
Air pressure: 0.6 MPa
Charging: vacuum or lifter

FZ Fluid-Bed Granulators

The FZ dries, mixes, granulates, coats and pelletizes: binder is sprayed from the top, bottom or side onto powder held in a fluidized bed. The range runs from FZ10 to FZ500 with filter cartridges and PID control. The FZS covers laboratory work.

Batch: 4-500 kg
Yield: 98 %
Bowl diameter: 800-2000 mm
FZ500 inlet air: 10,000 m³/h

LGX, LGC and LGS Roller Compactors

Dry granulation for heat- and moisture-sensitive drugs. The LGX has a double screw feeder with a vacuum system, three-side adjustable scrapers on both rollers, and every product-contact part can be fully disassembled. The LGS Hercules-100 serves large-yield production.

Output: 0.1-700 kg/h
Feeding: double screw
Screw feeder: vacuum system
Scrapers: 3-side adjustable

ZL and ZLT Mills

The ZL sizes granules that have agglomerated after granulation into uniform particles. It sits on wheels, and the mill height is raised or lowered to suit the process, limiting dust and cross contamination. The ZLT combines the mill with a lifter.

ZL200 output: 20-200 kg/h
ZL450 output: 45-450 kg/h
Power: 1.1 and 3 kW
ZL450 weight: 270 kg

HZD, HLD and HGD Bin Blenders

The HZD lifts, clamps and rotates a mobile IBC bin, then lowers it after blending. The rotary body is set at 30° to the axis and only the sealed bin touches the product, so the blender needs no cleaning between batches. The HLD suits high platforms; the HGD has a fixed bin.

Bin volume: 400-2000 L
Net load: 200-1000 kg
Tilt angle: 30°
Mixing motor: 4-7.5 kW

T420, T700 and T220 Tablet Presses

The T420 comes with 31, 38, 44 or 48 punch stations. A servo motor sets filling depth to 0.01 mm, a sensor under the lower main compression roller measures force, and the PLC rejects bad tablets and corrects weight. The T700 is double-discharge; the T220 is for labs.

T420 stations: 31-48
Output: up to 331,200 tablets/h
Compression force: 100 kN
Filling depth: 18 mm

BGX and BGS Tablet Coaters

In the BGX, tablet cores move in a sealed drum while a peristaltic pump feeds coating liquid to the spray guns and hot air dries the bed. Spray angle is set automatically, doors use airbag seals and the frame is designed for CIP. The BGS is a laboratory coater.

Drum: 75-600 L
Coating powder use: up to 95 %
Inlet air: 2000-6000 m³/h
Doors: airbag seals

CAP and NJP Capsule Filling Machines

The CAP400 and CAP700 handle capsules from 00# to 5#: orientation, separation, dosing disc filling, waste rejection and closing over 12 stations. The inlet links to capsule and powder loaders, the outlet to a polisher and metal detector. The NJP series is fully automatic.

CAP700 output: 700 pcs/min
Capsule size: 00# to 5#
Stations: 12
Total power: 4 kW

Choosing a Granulation Method

Canaan builds equipment for wet and dry granulation. For wet granulation there are LHS high shear mixers from 1 L in the lab to 1500 L in production and FZ fluid-bed granulators for 0.5-500 kg per batch with top spray; the FZ500 fan is 55 kW.

For dry granulation there are LGX, LGC and LGS roller compactors for 0.1-700 kg/h; the LGS Hercules-100 suits traditional Chinese medicine. The X Series line joins a high shear mixer, fluid-bed processor, mill and coater into one closed automated line.

Blending and Bin Handling

The HZD bin blender takes 400-2000 L bins with a loading coefficient of 0.5-0.8 and a 1.5-4 kW lifting motor. It rotates the sealed bin and never touches the product, so a batch change is a bin change. NTS, NTG, NTC and NTF lifters move and transfer material, and QD stations wash the bins.

Choosing a Tablet Press

The T420 is chosen by station count: the 48-station version presses tablets up to 11 mm in diameter, the 31-station version up to 25 mm. Output reaches 331,200 tablets per hour, filling depth is up to 18 mm, and the supply is 360-400 V, 50/60 Hz.

The T700 is a double-discharge high-speed press; the T220 is a lab press for single- and double-layer tablets.

Coaters and Capsule Fillers

BGX coaters come with 75-600 L drums and 1.5-5.5 kW main drives, set the spray angle automatically and use up to 95 % of the coating powder. CAP400 and CAP700 capsule fillers reach 400 and 700 capsules per minute, and the control program meets 21 CFR Part 11 requirements.
