ABOUT USA market leader in manufacturing and developing equipment
for the production of pellets (beads or spheroids) by Extrusion
and Spheronization™
HISTORY
For over 50 years Caleva Process Solutions have designed and
manufactured high quality products that have shaped the way
our clients understand extrusion and spheronization.
We work in close partnership with our customers from various
backgrounds in their developments that surround the need to
make pellets and extrudates using the processes of extrusion
and spheronization.
If you are involved in the pharmaceutical, catalyst or ceramic
industries (beads) and are thinking about extrusion and
spheronization to make pellets then talk to Caleva.
CALEVA MULTI LAB
A single bench top unit offering you advantages for university
teaching that is cost effective to purchase, easy and safe to
use and is robust in the hands of student users.
Offers best use of your benchtop space. You will have a safer
and more efficient work environment. “Tool-Less Technology”
reduces cleaning time and increases interaction of your students.
Suitable for a wide range of material, from easily mixed pharmaceutical
formulations to less easy to mix catalyst and inorganic mixes for the
petrochemical industry.
Use batches from 10g up to 100g whilst
saving your bench space and offering you a
high level of flexibility for your student groups
TABLET AND PELLET
MINI COATER DRIERYou can achieve excellent uniformity within and between
batches whilst reducing your product cost and overcome
limited product availability.
Ease of use together with the possibility to coat very small
batches makes the MCD-2 particularly attractive both for
university teaching and research laboratories.
From a single tablet up to about 150 tablets
From a few grams to about 60 grams of small pellets
From a single capsule to a "small handful"
MIXER TORQUE
RHEOMETERThe Caleva Mixer Torque Rheometer is well established as a
valuable formulation development, formulation research and
production quality control tool.
It will uniquely provide you with quantitative and reproducible
measurement of the rheology of a wet mass.
Having this information will enable you to optimize your
formulations in the least possible time. It will enable you
to investigate product and excipient quality issues in a
quantitative and meaningful way.
The data can be used as part of scale-up and the instrument
can also be used for quality control in production. The MTR-3
is designed to enable the user to quantify the consistency
properties of a wet mass.
