ConsiGma®
The ConsiGma® Compact Feeder test rig is a standalone module that allows you to characterize the feeding behavior of your products during the early stages of R&D.

The ConsiGma® Compact Feeder Test rig is a standalone module that enables you to check feeding behaviors at throughputs between 0.025 and 60.00 kg/h (depending on the product).
Regardless of the final purpose (fully integrated continuous line or individual unit operation), this unit is targeted at all companies who have an interest in integrating a continuous feeding step into their operations.
Read more about how GEA and its partners are implementing this technology to lead the way toward smaller, more flexible, continuous processing technologies that are transforming the future of pharmaceutical development and manufacturing.

An indispensable part of the ConsiGma portfolio, the Conductor control system architecture ensures smooth operation and communication between the different elements of a pharmaceutical continuous manufacturing line

The Lighthouse Probe® can be used for real-time monitoring of chemical and pharmaceutical processes and provides in-process window cleaning at any time, recalibration during the process, full CIP (cleaning) of wash housing and seal, and a clear view inside – even in difficult conditions.

The ConsiGma® Film Coater is based on the GEA high-performance tablet coating technology that gently and accurately deposits controlled amounts of coating materials onto tablet cores — even if they are hygroscopic or friable.

The ConsiGma® 1 offers standalone continuous twin-screw granulation and drying for small-scale R&D operations. It allows users to develop the process and achieve high granule quality on a compact unit.
Last year was not a year of hyped-up headlines for alternative proteins. Perhaps that is precisely why it was an important year for food biotech, the biotechnology behind everyday foods and ingredients. While the sector worked through a difficult funding environment, approvals were still granted, pilot lines set up and new platforms tested in the background. In short: headlines are turning into infrastructure. Frederieke Reiners heads GEA’s New Food business. She and her team work at the intersection of biotechnology and industrial food production. In this interview, she takes us on a world tour of food biotech in seven questions.
