Directly Compressible
Until now, a separate granulation step has often
been required in the production of solid dosage forms. The granulate is needed
to avoid segregation and to assure flow properties so the dies of a high-speed
tablet press can be filled accurately.
With the Fluidized Spray Dryer-
FSD™ or IFD™ - concept, the granulation step can be an integrated part of the
continuous drying process. The FSD™ technology can also be used to control the
residual volatiles content in the final spray dried powder.
