Hosokawa Bepex Bextruder Extruder/Granulator

Gentle densification

In the product chamber two rotors are counter rotating. The top rotor ensures a good mixture and conveys the material down.

The bottom extrusion rotor densifies the material and extrudes it through the screen basket.
Product extruded with the Bextruder has a loose structure with a large surface area and often good pliable properties for the spheronization.

For the optimum setting and to control the process the torque is measured at the bottom extrusion rotor.
The extrusion screens have two working areas and are therefore very economical. The nozzle diameters are available in the range from 0,3
to 3 mm.

The rotors have plug connections to the drive shafts. All parts are well accessible and can be changed easily. CIP / WIP options are available. All parts in contact with the product meet the requirements of the pharmaceutical industry and conform to FDA.
