Quadro Vac^® Dust-Free Milling System

Quadro Engineering recently supplied a Quadro^® Comil^® and Quadro Vac^® to the research laboratories of a large multi-national pharmaceutical manufacturer for use in tablet production. The Quadro Vac Clean Grinding System was selected after trials were carried out and compared with systems employing high-speed Hammermills.

 

With the Quadro Vac Dust-Free Milling System, material is drawn directly from the IBC, through the Comil, temporarily staged in the Quadro Vac's receiving hopper, from where it is then discharged into the mixer's receiving container bowl.

 

Trials proved that the Quadro Vac Dust-Free Milling System operated more efficiently than the Hammermill System. While the original goal for the manufacturer was compliance with health regulations, the Comil in the Quadro System was able to produce the same end-product results as the existing system using a motor that was approximately 25% smaller than the Hammermill, resulting in significant cost savings for the manufacturer.

 

As a result of these trials, the manufacturer purchased full Systems for each of their two (2) regional manufacturing locations.
