fluid bedlaboratorycontainment

Overview
GHIBLI is a fluid bed processor designed for drying, granulation and pellet coating in R&D and production environments. Engineered by IMA Active, the unit features a rotating expansion chamber that provides full accessibility to product filters for inspection and maintenance. Options and designs support high-containment processes and solvent use in compliant facilities.

Main functions

• Drying
• Granulation
• Pellet coating

Highlights

• Easy accessibility: rotating expansion chamber ensures complete access to product filters for inspection and maintenance.
• Safe containment: designed for high-containment environments; options available for solvent-handling compliance.
• Filter types: bag filters, star-pleated filters or stainless-steel cartridge filters.
• ATEX-compliant: available option to ensure safe operation with solvents.
• Product bowl: air distributor screens to maximise product yield; washable in-place and removable for inspection.
• Gravity discharge: optional gravity discharge through the floor.

Engineered for spraying
Supports double-fluid nozzles for granulation and coating. Accurate spraying is achieved by continuous control of liquid flow, volume and pressure.

Machine versions

• Lab Version (MYLAB): laboratory-scale fluid bed processor for R&D, suitable for drying, granulation and pellet coating. Product containers support batch sizes from 2 to 6 litres.
