Fluid bed systems
Optimized Drying, Coating & Granulation
Fluid Air fluid beds are the industry leader in air moving technology using the highest pressure, highest flow process blowers. High pressure blowers assure even the heaviest material have proper lift to fluidize and process efficiently. Variable frequency drive assure the exact amount of horsepower is delivered to the system for perfect airflow. Design flexibility ensures peak performance for fluid bed dryers, granulators, and coaters. Whether you need solid dosage technology for R&D, pilot or production applications, Fluid Air can help.
Our MAGNACOATER® Wurster coaters are the most robust with features that include, even air distribution, adjustable bed plate design, nozzle screens, tapered partitions, in-process adjustable partitions, self-clearing and removable nozzles, perimeter air enhancement, superior spray nozzle design, self-monitoring liquid delivery systems, and an Ultrasonic nozzle option. MAGNAFLO® fluid bed dryer/granulators and MAGNACOATER® Wurster coaters are completely customizable fluid bed systems designed to provide superior performance for a range of solid dosage processing applications.

Perfecting Your Process
Simplify Your Scale-up
Fluid Air fluid bed systems are designed to maintain critical scale-up factors from one unit to the next. Starting with our Model 50, to our largest available units, each system operates with nearly identical bed depths, air velocities, and air ratios (quantity of air per cubic foot of product), greatly simplifying the scale up of product from one unit to the next.
Faster Granulation
The conical shape of the expansion chamber reduces the velocity of the air in the filter chamber by 50%. The reduction in velocity helps to keep the smaller or fine particles out of the upper filter region and below the spray nozzles when granulating. A secondary benefit is a reduction in the total height of the expansion chamber.
Cost Effective
Fluid Air’s industry first pre-packaged factory built inlet and exhaust systems greatly reduce on-site construction costs. Systems come in a modular format so that the entire system can be quickly set in place and quickly brought into service.
