Dosing and Blending Modules
CONSIGMA®
Designed to achieve optimal blending results, the ConsiGma® DB modules facilitate the testing of dosing and blending operations and can be integrated with any continuous up- or downstream process.
Depending on its configuration and the formulation, the system can achieve throughputs of 15 to 600 kg/h.
The Conductor software ensures seamless control of the entire process and full reporting. Tracking of OOS and material genealogy can be integrated into the controls. Handshaking with up- or downstream equipment can also be offered.
ConsiGma® DB modules can be implemented in a wide variety of situations, including the following: • Dosing and blending of external phase additions (lubricant) together with a pre-blend
• Dosing and blending of multiple components.
• As an R&D module to investigate the dosing and blending process for NCE, orphan drugs or low-dose APIs
• As a dosing and blending unit combined with other continuous up- or downstream processes for both low dose and high throughput products, depending on the configuration.
The modules are suitable for ethical, CDMO, generic, nutraceutical or CMO operations.
