Cantilever Rotary Vacuum Paddle Dryer

The Cantilever Type Rotary Vacuum Paddle Dryer (RVPD) is specially designed for pharmaceutical, chemical, and API industries, ensuring maximum product purity and minimal contamination. This GMP-compliant model features a cantilever design that eliminates the need for support on the non-drive end, allowing for complete side access—ideal for easy cleaning, maintenance, and inspection.

Engineered for efficient drying under vacuum, the RVPD offers uniform heat transfer through hollow paddles and a jacketed shell, ensuring gentle drying of heat-sensitive products like APIs, intermediates, and fine chemicals. The cantilever construction also reduces mechanical complexity, enhancing operational safety and reliability.

Key features include:

Contamination-free operation with a fully sealed vacuum system

Minimal product retention, ideal for batch processing

CE, ATEX, and cGMP compliant for global regulatory standards

Constructed in SS316L, Hastelloy C-22, or C-276 for corrosion resistance

Suitable for drying crystalline, amorphous, or paste-like materials

 

The Cantilever RVPD is a high-performance solution for companies seeking hygienic, energy-efficient, and maintenance-friendly drying equipment that meets the strict standards of the pharmaceutical industry.
