In addition to serving as a stand-alone unit for formulation, the Gericke GFS-C also integrates seamlessly into existing processes such as wet or dry granulation, sachet or capsule filling, direct compression, and hot melt extrusion. The turnkey system is designed for quick access to the interior for easy, verifiable cleaning and may be disassembled in minutes by a single operator.
