Hot Melt Extruders - HME A11 (R&D Scale)

The Schenergix HME A11 is a compact hot melt extruder designed specifically for research and development. It provides scientists with the precision and flexibility needed to test new formulations and refine processes before moving into pilot or commercial-scale production. Hot Melt Extrusion is a powerful technology for improving solubility, bioavailability, and controlled drug release, and the A11 also supports both wet and dry granulation using HME, making it a reliable entry point for exploring the full potential of this technology.

With small batch capability and a throughput of up to 2 kg/h, the A11 is ideally suited to early-stage experimentation. It supports a wide range of applications including solubility enhancement, taste masking, and transdermal delivery. Easy to operate, self-cleaning, and adaptable, the A11 is the perfect tool for R&D teams developing innovative pharmaceutical solutions.

Key Features include:

  • R&D-scale throughput up to 2 kg/h
  • Supports wet and dry granulation using HME
  • Convertible barrel length L/D 40:1
  • Minimum batch size of 50 g
  • Easy to operate, self-cleaning, and compliant with 21 CFR-Part 11
