Sproeidroger
PRODUCTION MINOR™ sproeidroger
De capaciteit van de PRODUCTION MINOR™ sproeidroger maakt hem tot de ideale sproeidroger voor onderzoek en ontwikkeling, voor de productie van monsters in samenhang met de ontwikkeling en het testen van producten alsmede voor de productie van kleine hoeveelheden.
Developing the optimum spray drying process for larger-scale R&D or for small scale production requires safe, reliable equipment that is adaptable, and gives you reproducible, high-quality results, whatever your product, process, and feed type.
We’ve developed the PRODUCTION MINOR spray dryer as a great option when smaller scale units can’t quite meet capacity, but when you don’t need a larger commercial scale plant.
Ideal for larger-scale R&D spray drying
The GEA PRODUCTION MINOR spray dryer gives you the freedom carry out R&D and test processes at small commercial scale, as well as move on to manufacture for market your finished products at relatively small scale. Our versatile system can be ideal when you need larger volumes for product development, when it wouldn’t be cost effective to run a bigger, industrial spray dryer, or when you only need occasional or smaller batches of niche products. With regulatory compliant sanitary design as standard, the PRODUCTION MINOR is a go-to technology for our global customers in the food, chemicals and pharmaceuticals sectors.
Titel paragraaf
Dankzij een sanitair ontwerp kan de sproeidroger in de meeste industriesectoren worden ingezet, of het nu voedsel-, food-grade of chemische producten betreft. Er zijn verschillende opties beschikbaar om te kunnen voldoen aan vereisten als bijvoorbeeld droging van waterige en/of op oplosmiddelen gebaseerde producten, bescherming tegen explosies, reiniging, gegevensregistratie en andere technische kenmerken.

Standard, PSR and closed cycle spray drying systems
The PRODUCTION MINOR is really flexible, and we can configure standard, pressure shock resistant (PSR), or closed cycle systems to spray dry products using air or inert gas, whether your feed type is aqueous or solvent based.
It may be relatively small in stature and capacity, but the PRODUCTION MINOR spray dryer is highly featured and really adaptable. We’ve partnered with customers worldwide to better understand process needs in different industries, and have used this insight, in combination with our decades of expertise in spray drying across sectors, to develop spray drying technologies that support even the most complex processes and products, so you can innovate, push boundaries and negotiate challenges.Options and auxiliary equipment for PRODUCTION MINOR spray dryer
The PRODUCTION MINOR can be configured with a range of options and auxiliary equipment, including interchangeable atomization and powder discharge systems, powder cooling technology and external fluid bed units. Explosion protection and fire safety systems support the unquestionable need for personnel and plant safety. Cleaning is uncomplicated, helping to reduce down time and keep you productive and efficient, while automated data logging helps to make the PRODUCTION MINOR really user friendly.

Spray drying center of excellence
Because we are GEA, we do more than sell equipment. We want to make sure that every GEA system gives you top performance, efficiency and product quality, right from day one. You can see GEA technology in action at our spray drying center of excellence in Copenhagen, where GEA specialists can work with you to assess process feasibility, optimize and test spray drying settings and parameters for your feed type, and analyse powder properties, functionality and behavior, on a range of GEA spray dryers.
We can help you road-test GEA technology for new and existing products and processes, derive actionable process insights, and inform on scale up. Whatever your industry, it’s our aim to provide the expertise and technology that will help you stay competitive and efficient.
We’ll start by finding out more about your applications, goals and challenges, and then sit with you to consider every detail of your process and product and really get to understand your needs, whether you want to use the PRODUCTION MINOR technology for R&D, small-scale commercial production, or both.
Long term support for R&D and small-scale spray drying
We’d like to continue to support you for the whole life cycle of your PRODUCTION MINOR plant, so we offer a range of service plans. We’ll be on hand when it’s time to develop new products, help you with configuration changes, component options and upgrades, or troubleshoot if there’s an issue.
We’ve developed the PRODUCTION MINOR to support your R&D and make small-scale manufacturing efficient, flexible rand reliable. So, whatever your process and product, stage of R&D or small-scale manufacturing, just contact your local GEA representative, and find out more.
