Pharma Lift Systems

Hanningfield are proud to have been designing and manufacturing lifts for the pharmaceutical industry since 1987.

High Efficiency Cyclones for the Pharmaceutical Industry

The Hanningfield ‘Uni-Dust’ high efficiency cyclone is capable of capturing up to 99.99% of excess dust from pharmaceutical processing.

The high efficiency cyclone is uniquely placed within the process room itself, capturing excess dust in a catch pot.  This prevents excess powder from flowing to the central dust extraction, preventing the blocking of filters, and the expenses that come with changing these filters.

For example. Excess powder from a tablet press or a capsule filling machine can be collected in the process room itself - making batch loss reconciliation simple.
