In the dynamic world of pharmaceutical production, innovation remains at the heart of product efficiency, safety and quality. It is with great pride that De Dietrich Process Systems presents its latest piece of equipment in its Tech Lab: the Pan Dryer. This vertical dryer, designed for development or pilot production applications, extends the Tech Lab's offering in terms of testing and scale-up of drying and filtration/drying processes. With its advanced performance, the Pan Dryer is an invaluable asset for all those involved in the production of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and all manufacturers using solid-liquid separation equipment.

Vertical dryers like the Pan Dryer are vacuum agitation dryers particularly well suited to drying delicate, heat-sensitive products, to obtain very low residual humidities. The products to be dried may be sensitive to mechanical stress or, on the contrary, require vigorous separation operations by the integrated lump breaker.

This new vertical dryer is a valuable asset for De Dietrich's Tech Lab in Semur-en-Auxois, France.

Since its inauguration a year ago, with financial support from France Relance, the Tech Lab has achieved resounding success. Continuing the Group's commitment to providing a complete solution for the production of pharmaceutical APIs, the Pan Dryer harmoniously adds to the range of testing capabilities offered by the Tech Lab’s other existing drying and filtration/drying equipment. It is based on the proven principle of the RoLab, a versatile Filter/Dryer available in several sizes for R&D and pilot production.

The vertical dryer is the perfect link between the RoLab Filter/Dryer and the other Tech Lab dryers, such as conical, biconical and spherical dryers. The range of equipment available at the Tech Lab is constantly evolving, and the spherical dryer should also soon benefit from significant improvements.

One of the main advantages of the Pan Dryer is its increased efficiency. Its state-of-the-art technology enables precise control of temperature and drying conditions, guaranteeing consistent, reliable results. This efficiency not only saves time, but also improves overall production productivity. This new Pan Dryer is at the leading edge of technology, which facilitates scale-ups. It is suitable for a wide range of materials, with varying particle sizes and densities.
