INTERPHEX 2011 - Quadro Launches A Lab Scale HV-Emulsifier And Wet Mill

Quadro is proud to introduce the Ytron HV0-Emulsifier and Wet Mill, a formulation lab-scale machine that provides all the benefits of high velocity (HV) milling at an inline process capacity of 1-5 L/min. To liquid pharmaceutical processors interested in submicron emulsions, suspension milling and micronization, Quadro Ytron HV is the brand of inline mill that offers more than fifty-five times (55x) the high shear energy of a conventional rotor-stator system with precise process scaling from lab formulation, to pilot and production processing. The restricted capacity, high energy consumption, and frequent maintenance requirements of high pressure homogenizers (HPH) and media mills can now be overcome with an HV solution to maximize productivity while cutting the cost of development and production.

The HV-Series features three different models ranging from 7.5-60 Hp depending on desired capacity, up to over 285 L/min. All models utilize energy optimized tooling that operates at tip speeds up to 70m/s with the lowest power consumption in the industry, in addition to a sanitary high-speed mechanical seal that eliminates potential trap areas around the rotor shaft for improved CIP/SIP results.

From mills to mixers to complementary product lines, Quadro has earned the respect of customers with widely varied applications in more than 50 countries. Quadro people, like Quadro products, are recognized everywhere for the highest standards of professionalism and performance. By focusing on our traditional strengths in process engineering, industry application expertise and service, we ensure our customers continuous quality in meeting their needs through succeeding generations.
