Clean air in tablet production in Greece
A leading German pharmaceutical company produces tablets for medical applications near Athens.
The entire manufacturing process in the highly automated plant is based on state-of-the-art process technology.
With a tailor-made concept, Infastaub was awarded the contract in the field of tablet production for efficient and reliable dust extraction from a tablet press in which products containing active ingredients are processed.
Infastaub was awarded this contract thanks in no small part to its many years of expertise in the industry and the INFA-MICRON MPR filter system, which is designed for such demanding filtration tasks.
This filter system from the INFA-MICRON cartridge filter series, type MPR 3/20-3/20,
will be used as a central extraction system at several extraction points in tablet production from February 2025, ensuring a dust-free environment and safe handling for operators.
This cartridge filter is a user-friendly and highly efficient dust extraction system. The filter series covers a wide range of filtration tasks, as in this application example in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries.
The processes in these industries place the highest demands on the separation efficiency of critical dusts and operational safety.
Infastaub uses an Infa-Micro-Tronic Siemens PLC S7-CPU1215C for filter control, which is equipped with the Siemens TP700 control panel. The filtration process and air volume can be monitored and adjusted directly on site at the filter via the integrated frequency converter. An optimized operating concept provides operators with specific support in process control in filter technology.
The fan of the extraction system is installed separately next to the filter. Filter cartridge replacement is simple and safe during operation, ensuring high system availability.
The dust bag in the dust collection container is replaced according to the "SAFE CHANGE" principle for safe dust removal and simplified handling during disposal.
