PROCEPT Spray Dryer / Chiller GMP
Spray Drying is the most advanced instant drying process to engineer a particle and formulate in a single step. The SDx series of Spray Dryers feature closed loop solvent processing under nitrogen. The unit is capable of spray drying/chilling/congealing samples of a few ml to batches of several liters.
The PROCEPT Spray Dryer / Chiller GMP allows straight transfer from the PROCEPT R&D Spray Dryer without scale-up! The unit is built through the GMP wall or wheelable stand-alone in the GMP room.

PROCEPT’s parallel Spray Dryer / Chiller GMP set-up avoids scale-up from R&D to Clinical production. This flexible parallel concept provides the fastest route to the market of your small molecules and biologics.


The PROCEPT Closed Loop Spray Dryer / Chiller GMP
Increase your spray drying capacity without scale-up problems using multiple columns with a single central control system. Our modular system has several very important advantages including:
- Faster time to market.
- Fewer production risks.
- Flexible production capacity.
- Phased investment capacity follows your needs.
- Fits into standard infrastructure.
- First small clinical batches without scale-up issues.
