Glatt spheronizers/pelletizers are used wherever homogeneous
pellets are to be produced with throughputs of up to 10.000kg/h.
Spheronizing of moist granulates and extruded products
In the pelletizer/spheronizer, moist granulates or pre-formed
extruded products are fed onto the rotating pelletizer plate and
shaped into round pellets with very narrow grain size distribution.

Build-up of pellets by
direct pelletizing and layering
Under certain conditions (depending on the equipment and the product),
pellets can also be manufactured by Direct
Pelletizing or Powder
Layering. In such cases, the powder is metered and solutions
are sprayed under or over the product bed.
Simple handling
- replaceable spheronizer disc
with/without surface profiling (dependent on product)
- more effective drying of the surface
and thus reduction of the pelletizing time due to heated or cooled
double jacket
- an optimum pelletizing bead can be set up by varying the speed
and air gap of the rotor disc
- the dwell times can be set up by continuous height adjustment
of the discharge orifice

Pelletizer cascades
Several pelletizers/spheronizers can be
connected in cascade in order to increase the batch throughput. Cascades
also allow layer structures to be built up. In this case, the upstream
granulation process is a deciding factor in the structure of the pellets.

User-friendly control system
Glatt offers customized Control
Systems with simple, logical operator guidance. The process
can be visualized and documented on request. Qualification
and Validation
of our control systems are, of course, possible right
up to GAMP4.
All control systems are designed and manufactured in-house by Glatt
based on hardware and software that has become established throughout
the world.
The advantage for you is many years of security with regard to plant
availability and support.
Uncomplicated cleaning
Whether manual cleaning or an effective WIP pre-cleaning system.
With the SC
SuperClean® concept, Glatt is offering a patented
technology, which sets the standard world-wide for the cleaning
of fluid bed systems. WIP/CIP racks, see (->
Cleaning Systems).
