KB 30 S: Cube mixer made of stainless steel, 11 l volume, 40 % working capacity

Erweka* Planetary Stirrer PRS

The Planetary stirring unit for mixing of creams, ointments, pastes, moist powders and liquids.

This powerful mixing attachment comes with various mixing/stirring accessories, e.g. kneading hook, mixing paddle, whisk and a fluoropolymer scraper for removing any product adhering to the side of the bowl. This way, homogenous mixing in the shortest possible time is ensured.

The stirring/mixing accessories and vessel (5 liter volume, working capacity 60 %) are made of stainless steel.

Erweka* Laboratory Kneader LK 5

The Laboratory Kneader with stainless steel kneading vessel (5 liter volume, working capacity 65 %), housing and two z-shaped kneading blades running at different speed in opposing directions.

The asynchronous mixing action intensifies and considerably accelerates the kneading process. The kneading vessel is fitted with a acrylic glas cover to monitor the kneading process.

An electro-magnetic cover lock ensures that the power supply to the drive is disconnected immediately when the vessel cover is removed.

Erweka* Wet Granulator FGS

The ERWEKA FGS wet granulator with oscillating rotor for the production of wet granules. The granules can be produced in varying sizes depending on the sieve mesh employed. All parts coming into contact with the product are made of stainless steel.

Working capacity is max. 30 kg/h, depending on the material and mesh width of the sieve used. The unit is supplied as standard with two sieves with 1.0 mm and 1.6 mm MW respectively.

The following mesh sizes are also available: 0.315; 0.63; 0.8; 1.0; 1.25; 1.6; 2.0; 2.5 and 3.15 mm. Other special sieves are available on request.

Erweka* Double Roll Crusher TG 2000

One of our bestsellers! The ERWEKA Double Roll Crusher TG 2000 with two driven rollers running in opposite directions from the inside to the outside. The rollers are 70 mm long and made of stainless steel. They are equipped with teeth to produce a powerful grinding action by forcing the material against a series of braking combs.

The TG 2000 fully conforms to the latest safety requirements.

All parts coming into contact with the product are made of stainless steel. Fines produced during crushing are very low (max. 25 %) and can be reduced to 15 % by careful adjustment of the process.

Erweka* Vibration Sieve Shaker VT

The Erweka Vibration Sieve Shaker VT operates on the reciprocating cam principle. The vibration intensity can be adjusted by changing the speed of the drive unit.

Available sieve sets include:

(VS) Sieve set with 9 sieves 31 cm Ø, according to DAB and Pharm. Europe, sieves made of phosphor bronze
(VS/S) Sieve set with 9 sieves 31 cm Ø, according to DAB and Pharm. Europe, sieves made of stainless steel
(PS/S) Sieves set with 4 stainless steel sieves 20 cm Ø, according to DAB 1998, ISO 565/3310-1

Erweka* Pelletizer GTE

The pelletizer GTE (300 mm o.d.) is attached to the AR 403 via the Universal Gear UG which enables the operator to adjust the operating angle to the optimum position during operation. The material can be fed in manually or continuously. The rotary movement of the pan carries the product to the top of the pan and then flows down the pan in an even stream to the base.

By addition of the requisite amount of liquid, this process can be converted into the formation of pellets. The angle of the pan and the amount of liquid added determine the pellet size. When the pan is full, the pallets will continuously roll over the edge of the pan into a waiting container.

Erweka8* Coating Pans DKE/DKS

The ERWEKA coating pans are used for the development of coating tablets. The universal gear UG is required to attach the coating pan to the motor drive. This allows adjusting the angle of the pan and getting an optimum result from the coating process.

An infrared radiator with fixing rod can be mounted above the pan to accelerate drying if required.

Versions:

DKE, stainless steel pan, volume 9.5 l, max. capacity 30 %, 275 mm outside diameter
DKS, stainless steel pan, volume 15 l, max capacity 30 %, 350 mm outside diameter

Erweka* Polishing Drum

The ERWEKA polishing drum is used to polish coated tablets. The drum is inside equipped with interchangeable felt parts. The cover has a 120 mm o.d. opening for observation of the polishing process and addition of the polishing agent during the production process.

The polishing drum (2 l volume, working capacity max. 40 %) is designed for attachment to the drive AR 403 unit via the universal gear UG in a similar manner as the coating pan.

Erweka* Homogenizer HO/HHO

The Homogenizer HHO or HOfor oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsions. Mixing is achieved by a stainless steel piston.

The volume of the stainless steel hopper is 1.5 liters. The maximum output is 30 kg/hour. The HHO is equipped with a heated hopper, whereas the HO/UA offers a circulation and filling unit.

Erweka* Filling and Dosing Oitment FDF

The ERWEKA two-station dosing and filling unit FDF is suitable for the drop-free filling of all types of liquids. The dispense volume is easy to adjust and the pumps and valves can be simply removed for cleaning and sterilisation.

Maximum output: 1200 fills/hour.

The FDF comes with one set of filing nozzles with 6 mm and 8 mm outer diameter. Filling nozzles with different diameters are available on request.

Erweka* Suppository Moulding SG/W

The ERWEKA suppository moulding unit SG 4/W has been designed for the production of moulded suppositories, lipsticks and similar moulded products. The mixing vessel (5 liter volume, working capacity max. 65 %) is located in a warm oil bath fitted with a thermostatically controlled heater (adjustable between 20° C and 100° C).

Stirring, mixing and melting are achieved in a single operation and are not interrupted during the filling process. The moulds to be filled are positioned on a platform below the dispensing nozzle. A hand wheel enables the operator to move the platform and hence the moulds in both axes.
