Pilot Freeze Dryer LYOVAC® FCM 10-P
The highly flexible standalone FCM 10-P freeze dryer from GEA has been designed for the production of small-scale batches and formulation/process development. Also available as a wall-mounted option, this two-chamber unit is configured to industry standards.
With a capacity of 10 kg and shelf space of 0.63 m², the FCM 10-P also benefits from easy-access doors and spare flanges for validation and/or additional equipment.
Using the same FALCO control system as the production unit, allowing direct recipe transfer during scale-up, the FCM 10-P is GLP/GMP-compliant.
Available options:
- IQ/OQ documentation and test performance
- Wireless temperature sensors
- Sterilization by VHP (VAPOVAC™) or steam depending on the availability of utilities
- Process development service
- LYOSPARK© controlled nucleation
- LYOPLUS© mass spectrometer for silicone oil detection or alternative end-point detection

GEA Insights
The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Au-delà des machines : exploiter les gisements de performance des installations
Ce n'est pas parce que vous avez des machines efficaces que votre usine l'est. Une trajectoire d'amélioration efficace commence souvent par une analyse qui ne se limite pas aux équipements pris individuellement, et cherche à comprendre comment les processus, les systèmes énergétiques et les décisions opérationnelles s'influencent mutuellement. C'est une démarche holistique, conçue pour repérer des opportunités qui, sans cela, risqueraient de passer inaperçues.
Comment une vanne révolutionne la production des aliments et des boissons
Dans les installations agroalimentaires, les vannes sont généralement actionnées en utilisant de l'air comprimé. La technologie d'actionnement GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology, quant à elle, actionne les vannes en utilisant de l'eau, au sein d'un circuit fermé à commande numérique. Résultat, une vanne peut être maintenue en place de manière exacte et réglée par petits paliers. Cela se traduit par une consommation d'énergie en baisse et un meilleur contrôle.
