The Alexanderwerk WP 200 Pharma is especially designed as a production model, which meets the highest requirements and standards of the pharmaceutical industry. With a throughput up to 400 kg/h (Lactose) the WP 200 Pharma can be used for the production of a large range of products in small batches as well as for the compaction and granulation of single products in a continuous operation. Moreover the machine is equipped as standard with the patented Combi-Vent-Feeder®. Through the improved de-aeration more raw material can be processed in a given period, which leads to a more profitable operation. Because of its modular design, the process technology can be almost completely disassembled without special tools. Due to its canter lever bearing design the rollers can be easily replaced and cleaned, which provides an efficient and flexible production. To ensure a compact design, the control and operation units are integrated in an external control cabinet.

The design and construction is orientated on the strict requirements of pharmaceutical industry and provide the following advantages:

cGMP design
consistent separation between process material and technical equipment
rollers in cantilever design
integrated two-stage rotor fine granulators in Diagonal-Design®
made completely of high quality stainless steel
non-metallic parts FDA approved
automated PLC
URS-conformity as required
tool free disassembly

Options:

circumferential side seals
WIP (Wash in Place)
21 CFR Part 11
containment solution with isolator-technology
additional roller surfaces (smooth/grooved/knurled/squared or a desired combination)
suction water cooling
hopper with level limit switch
pneumatic conveyor for raw material/final granule
mobile machine base

In 1885 Mr. Alexander von der Nahmer established Alexanderwerk Group as an iron foundry with mechanical workshops for the production of different kinds of small machines as well as household appliance.

Through the decades the now closed iron foundry has changed to a worldwide known and appreciated mechanical engineering company. Today Alexanderwerk is a specialist for the development and production of compaction and granulation machines, machines for grating and shredding, customized design and plant construction in the chemical, pharmaceutical and primary industry. Moreover, Alexanderwerk convince its customers with an all-round support, consisting of manufacture, delivery, installation supervision, implementation and maintenance.

Evidence of the company's efforts at constantly continuing to develop its products is provided by patents of the company, which employs around ninety-five people: for example the Combi-Vent-Feeder® technology, which enables the air pressed out of the materials during the compacting process to escape, and the Diagonal-Design® solution, which makes for higher throughput capacities during granulation.

The machines are sold all over the world by Alexanderwerk GmbH as well as many international agencies and distribution partners. The Alexanderwerk Inc. branch in Horsham, Pennsylvania in the USA covers the market in North and Central America. In total the number of employees of the Alexanderwerk Group amounts to 106.

The Alexanderwerk AG is certified in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9001:2008
