PROCESS DIVISION Spheronization Technology

Spheronization can improve your product’s performance by: • Producing a smooth particle surface suitable for thin layer coating. • Conditioning particles to prevent generation of dust and fines from usage or shipping. • Forming granules with a specific bio-consumable shape. • Increasing flowability by elimination of sticking or bridging points. • Increasing the apparent bulk density up to 25% compared to extruded material. The Marumerizer™ from LCI is being used to produce smooth, uniform spheres in a wide range of applications. wm Features • Design and operational simplicity. Allows easy,...

How It Works The Marumerizer comprises three principal, precision made components: a vertical cylinder with discharge port, a circular “friction” plate and a variable speed drive train which turns the plate. The feed material can be extruded particles or moist granules from a mixer/granulator. Since an extruded particle has two dimensions already defined, a narrow final particle size distribution is expected. Particles are fed onto the spinning friction plate, which hurls them against the inside wall of the cylinder. Extrudate as it enters the Marumerizer If the particles are extruded, they...

Spheronization Systems Spheronization is just one step in the process of producing spherical granules. LCI can engineer and provide complete granulation systems which take your product from powder to sphere, ready for packaging or further processing. These systems are based on the broadest range of extrusion methods available. This flexibility of choice allows our clients to more closely produce the exact granule properties they require. Our technical services include preliminary evaluation studies, pilot or full-scale demonstrations in our The LCI Test Center can prove feasibility and lay...
