PHARMA & BIOTECH

The pharmaceutical and biotech industry involves a wide range of mixing tasks in which precision and consistency are of utmost importance.

Particles must be evenly suspended and homogenized in liquids for filling processes. In some cases, multiple processes — such as heat transfer, rapid mixing, or material transport — must take place simultaneously within one reactor. Drives may also have to meet specific requirements, for example when production takes place under clean room conditions. The surface quality of stirring elements must meet the highest standards and is therefore usually electropolished.

Our agitator solutions for the pharmaceutical and biotech industry are engineered and manufactured to customer-specific requirements. Selection of the agitator, drive, and sealing concepts depends on the process and customer specifications. We provide the necessary design calculations or simulate the mixing process.

Applications in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry include pharmaceuticals, enzymes, yeasts, proteins and amino acids, vitamins, cell cultures, substrate production, sterilization of fermentation media, aerobic and anaerobic fermentation, synthesis, cell disruption, product concentration and purification, crystallization, or hydrogenating applications.

We supply in accordance with FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) requirements.

We manufacture in all available steel and stainless steel grades, in the required surface qualities or coatings. Surface qualities range from Ra 0.8 to Ra 0.2 — ground and electropolished. All sealing materials are supplied with the relevant FDA certificates of conformity.
