This Collette GRAL 75 Vactron is a mixer and blender — sometimes referred to as a high-shear granulator or mixer-granulator — built for wet granulation, mixing, and drying processes in pharmaceutical and related industries. Collette, the Belgian manufacturer, is a well-established name in pharmaceutical processing equipment, known for producing high-shear mixing and granulation systems used in solid-dose drug manufacturing. This particular unit combines mixing and granulation with integrated microwave drying and vacuum capability, making it a multi-function processing vessel in a single machine.
The machine dates from 1997 and carries serial number 84 MG7527. It is constructed throughout in stainless steel grade L equivalent), suitable for pharmaceutical and chemical processing environments. The vessel has a gross capacity of 75 litres with a net working volume of 50 litres, and measures 525 mm in diameter by 400 mm in depth. Three ports serve the vessel: a 50 mm inlet fitted with a funnel, a second 35 mm inlet, and a 140 mm outlet, which is pneumatically operated. A lump breaker and a cover are also fitted as standard, and the vessel can operate under vacuum.
The main drive motor is rated at 10 kW, 415 V, and is paired with a frequency-controlled variable speed drive. The rotor operates at 1,500 or 3,000 rpm. Microwave drying is integrated into the system via a microwave generator, and solvent recovery capability is provided by a Busch Huckepack vacuum pump (type 425013, manufactured in 2001). Switchgear is included with the machine and is described as sold as-is.
The overall installation stands 2.0 metres in height and occupies a floor footprint of 1.8 × 1.0 metres. The machine is located in Barneveld, Netherlands, and is offered in used condition.
