ALEXANDERWERK ROLLER COMPACTOR, MODEL WP 120
Year of construction: 2016
The WP 120 Pharma was specially designed by Alexanderwerk for use in
pharmaceutical research and development areas. Designed as a mobile
unit, meets the demand for mobility and flexibility in R&D and pilot
plant. The control system and the operating unit are integrated in the
machine. Process parameters determined for a later production scale
can be easily transferred to larger machines.
Due to its modular design, the process technology of the WP 120 Pharma
can be completely disassembled without special tools; the modular
design also guarantees fast changing and cleaning of all working tools
and meets the requirements for flexible production.
Machinery size
Weight (incl. control system): approx. 825 kg
Dimensions (HxWxD): approx. 1,635 mm x 1,450 mm x 924 mm
Production

(basing on lactose) can be processed with the standard roller width of
40 mm into granulates of various sizes. This enables use with special
products and smaller batches in the pilot plant and in the small scale
production area under constant and reproducible production
conditions.
