The
advanced design of this filter-dryer agitator helps you achieve efficient cake
drying during your filtration and separation processes. The core of good
agitated nutsche filter dryer (ANFD) performance relies heavily on the agitator
design. This agitator has been refined over a 22 year period to provide very
robust performance under a variety of conditions. This is achieved by a series of
sharp curved blades with spaces at different centers of each arm. When moving
and lifting the cake product between the gaps within the filter dryer agitator the
product moves at a lower velocity and is subsequently swept by the second arm
of the blade, achieving efficient mixing by differential velocities. The curved
agitator blades also achieve penetration into difficult cakes without undue
product stress. The agitators are always fabricated in one piece with the shaft
welded to the arms which removes any direct leak path of heat transfer fluid
through a bolted joint between the shaft and arms. The company offers a full
range of sizes and specifications to meet all requirements, from chemical development
to bulk production. The agitated nutsche filter dryers provide the total
reliability needed in the pharmaceutical industry.
