Optimize your extrusion and granulation workflows with the Thermo Scientific™ Pharma 11 Twin-screw Extruder, a system designed for material and labor efficiency.
With throughput ranging from 20 g/hour to 2.5 hg/hour, it is suitable for both R&D and small-scale commercial production.
For commercial use, an industry-standard PLC provides easy integration with process control systems, with 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, batch reporting, and audit-trail options.
This versatile 2-in-1 machine easily converts between hot melt extrusion (HME), twin-screw granulation (TSG), and wet extrusion. It features a wide range of accessories and offers full scalability with the larger Thermo Scientific stand-alone pharmaceutical compounding portfolio.
The Pharma 11 Twin-screw Extruder Features:
- Utilizes smaller material quantities for faster, cost-efficient development
- Easily converts from hot melt extrusion (HME) to twin screw granulation (TSG) applications
- Operates within throughput ranges from 20 g/h up to 2.5 kg/h
- Processing length: L/D ratio 40:1
- Screw elements and barrel configurations are geometrically scaled across all Thermo Scientific Pharma Extruders, enabling straightforward process scale-up
- User-friendly operation with an intuitive touchscreen and integrated feeder control
- Compact footprint maximizes laboratory space
- Well suited to glove box or isolator applications with a detachable touchscreen
- All product-contact components are easily removable
- Provides documentation of extrusion parameters, recipes, batch reports, audit trails, and supports PAT (Process Analytical Technologies)
- Complies with GMP and 21 CFR Part 11 requirements, with full validation available: FAT, SAT, IQ/OQ
