Pharmaceutical R&D Technology
Building on the success of the well-established PharmaConnect® system, GEA now offers a new range of modular fluidized bed technologies: AirConnect.
Based on the outstanding success of PharmaConnect®, the AirConnect has been developed by GEA to meet the pharmaceutical industry's requirements for unit operation flexibility and is based on the proven principle that a single core component can be used for numerous processes by interchanging a range of application-specific modules.
Designed to utilize the company’s market-leading fluidized bed technology, and capable of running batches from as little as 200 g to more than 10 kg, the AirConnect not only performs fluid bed drying, but, when combined with the class-leading Flexstream device, can also be used for side-spray granulation and coating. More conventional top spray granulation processes are also possible and, in addition, the AirConnect can be integrated with GEA’s Precision-Coater for bottom spray micro-pellet coating.
Furthermore, AirConnect is also designed to work with GEA’s ConsiGma® continuous coater and FlexCoater technologies, offering rapid, high quality tablet coating functionality.
The AirConnect from GEA is the ultimate fluid bed processor for small-scale research and production applications. Suitable for granulating, drying and coating, the AirConnect accelerates and optimises product development by minimizing the amount of scale-up required to move from R&D-level batch processing to full-scale continuous production systems.
PharmaConnect® allows a number of diverse process modules to be docked to one control unit, including high shear granulation, pelletization and blending, coating.
FlexStream is a multi-purpose processor that addresses the shortfalls of traditional fluid bed processing, including linear scale-up, fully contained loading and unloading for Pharmaceutical applications.
GEA fournit des systèmes de traitement à lit fluidisé (appelés fluid bed Multi-Processor™ aux États-Unis) pour le mélange, la granulation, le séchage, la pelletisation et l'enrobage pour l'industrie pharmaceutique.
GEA has expanded its popular PharmaConnect® system with the introduction of PharmaConnect®-PLUS, extending the unit’s high shear granulation capacity to encompass batch sizes of up to 60 kg.

L'impact du réchauffement climatique est de plus en plus visible dans le monde entier. Les villes de toutes tailles sont confrontées au même défi : fournir à leurs communautés de la chaleur fiable et bon marché, qui soit issue de sources durables. GEA a échangé avec un spécialiste du secteur, Kenneth Hoffmann, Directeur Pompes à chaleur chez GEA Heating & Refrigeration Technologies, pour savoir comment lutter plus rapidement contre le réchauffement de notre planète.
Quelque chose a attiré l'attention de Thomas, éleveur de son état. Au lieu d'effectuer une énième démonstration produit, GEA a présenté ses dernières innovations en utilisant la réalité augmentée (RA). Cette initiative était le point de départ d'un projet de plus grande ampleur : la ferme numérique interactive de GEA.
