CM Roll Compactor is designed for the densification by compacting powder for the Pharmaceutical & Bulk Drug Industries in particular and Food & Chemical industries in general. CM Roll Compactors are designed specially for continuous processing of a wide variety of materials. By virtue of its construction and design, it ensures easy and quick clean up required for frequent product changeover.

Applications

Compacted granules have higher bulk density so they occupy lesser volume.

Less Dust / Fine powder in compacted granules minimizes cross contamination and product loss.

Good flowability and dosing characteristics of compacted granules resulted in more even fill and reduce the packing size.

Can be used as method of dry granulation.

All production models can be supplied with either

• Fixed rolls
• Adjustable rolls with load measurement & hydro-powerpack

Roll surface Plain Corrugated Knurled / Serrated Briquetted Pockets

Unless specified the machine will be supplied along with corrugated rolls

Optimal compaction can be assured with a correct roll surface. For some applications, the material to be compacted is not effectively drawn into the smooth rolls.

Salient Features :

CM Roll Compactor models CPMRC 200/50 & CPMRC 200/75 comply with all cGMP requirements. All contact parts are made of SS304 / SS316. All covers are designed to obtain dust-free operation, however all product contact areas are easily accessible for cleaning. CM Roll Compactor models CPMRC 200/100 & CPMRC 200/150 can be supplied to comply cGMP requirements.

Feed screw is sleeplessly driven through variable frequency controlled speed drive. Mechanical and electrical safety devices are included for operator's safety.

A double output shaft gearbox, with step pulley drive and the necessary couplings, drives the rolls. The double output shaft gearbox ensures synchronization of the rolls and an equal distribution of the torque to the rolls.

Conical predensifier screw is supplied. The screws are cylindrical at base to enable accurate metering.

The feed screw assembly can be hydraulically lifted by hand operated hydraulic pump and swung aside. This facilitates easy access and cleaning of all parts having contact with the product.

Hard chrome plated & mirror finished compacting rolls are made of Tool steel, hardened to 55HRc approximately and are keyed into shafts and protected against axial slipping by stuffing pieces.

Scrapper assembly is designed to dismantle for ease of cleaning.

Locating guide at bottom of the hopper is provided for easy assembly.

All parts of the compacting head and feeding device in contact with the product are made from corrosion resistant steel or protected by chrome plating to avoid contamination of product. The gaps on both sides of the rolls are sealed by stuffing pieces to prevent leakage and loss of pressure in the product. Hard chrome plated stuffing pieces are made of hardened steel to resist wear.

Pre-compaction chamber guides the product to rolls without any slippage or leakage.

Electrical interlocking between main roll drive and feed screw drive.

Built-in control panel for models CPMRC 200/50 & CPMRC 200/75.

Separate control panel for models CPMRC 200/100 & CPMRC 200/150.

Discharge nozzle offers no resistance to compacted sheets to prevent any blockage at outlet. Models CPMRC 200/100 & CPMRC 200/150 can accommodate large size of containers below discharge conveniently on belt conveyor for continuous operation. Rear rolls is adjustable in circumferential direction; to achieve precise pockets or profile to produce continuous sheets or slug with greater densification as close roll positioning is achieved.

Water Jacketing arrangement

Water Jacketed model is widely used for processing of thermo sensitive products by compacting without distorting physical and chemical properties of the product. Jacketing is provided in all process sensitive areas like rolls, bowl and hopper. The Hot/Cold fluid/water at low pressure can be circulated for removal of heat from rolls or heating rolls. Quick release couplings are provided with non-return valve to avoid spillage during dismantling, cleaning or sterilization process.
