The Q-120T can be easily assembled with the desired friction plate for spheronization. Moist granules, from an extruder or mixer, are fed into the spinning friction plate and thrown against the inside of the Marumerizer Spheronizer, forming a “twisting rope”. Collisions of the particles with the wall, friction plate, and other particles result in plastic deformation of the granules, forming spheres. The final shape of particles is time and formulation dependent. Once the desired particle shape is achieved, the batch is discharged through a manual plug valve and discharge chute, collected, and dried.
