Continuous Processing Skid Permits Formulation Development to Full Scale Production in Same Unit
12 Sep 2023  |
Somerset, NJ: The Gericke Formulation Skid (GFS) from process equipment manufacturer Gericke, USA, Somerset, NJ, enables pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers to develop new formulations, test small batches, and scale up to full production volumes using a single, self-contained processing platform. Meeting identical quality targets at nearly any volume, the GFS eliminates the increasingly larger equipment required when scaling up from batch processes in favor of a streamlined, continuous process offering increasing volumes by extending run times. A new formulation may be tested in minutes then scaled up to full production running 24/7 in automated operation on the same system without investing in additional equipment.

Devised as a fully automated, turnkey solution for solid dosage manufacturing, the GFS integrates weighing, feeding, and mixing as one, continuous process to speed product development and save space with a compact footprint. The novel configuration invites easy access to product contact areas for complete cleaning during changeovers while assuring product containment and minimizing downtime.

The Gericke Formulation Skid is delivered assembled, tested and ready for startup or for integration into existing manufacturing processes. Product testing is available in the company’s test laboratory.
