Cogeim

Filters, Filter-Dryers & Vacuum Dryers

For the last 40 years Cogeim has been a leading worldwide supplier of solid - liquid separation and vacuum drying equipment to the pharmaceutical, fine chemical and chemical industries.

The recently expanded Cogeim workshop specializes in manufacturing process equipment, engineered systems, and large process skids using high quality construction materials such as stainless steels and special nickel based alloys. Cogeim has held an ISO 9001 certificate since 1994 and is regularly inspected by authorized agencies.

Design and manufacturing (starting from the raw material such as plates, flanges, and forgings) takes place “in house”, together with all quality control activities. This vertically integrated organization enables Cogeim to guarantee the highest standard available in the market for this equipment. Cogeim represents a unique combination of expertise in process engineering and equipment manufacturing and has been the first to introduce to the market several innovations which are now a market standard.

Some Cogeim innovations

Filter-Dryer
Model Filtrodry FEP/XD

Provided with a special four arm agitator that significantly increases the heated surface area in contact with the product and drastically reduces the drying time.

3 O-Ring Filter Media

No screws in contact with the pro- duct, minimizes dead spaces, optimizing the CIP wash for pharmaceutical GMP productions.

Xtract-1 Full Discharge System

Based on pneumatic conveying technology, XTRACT-1 performs complete dry solids discharge from flat-bottomed equipment, including the residual heel left under the agitator.

XAM-1

XAM-1, introduces a new ge- neration of sidewall mounted valves, combining on-line measurement of residual solvents with solid product sampling.

Microwave Drying

Microwave drying is an alternative or auxiliary technology to conventional heating; used to optimize drying and to improve the final characteristics of the solid product.

Special designs are available for Sterile and HAPI pharmaceutical applications where cleaning, complete drainage, sterilization and containment are an integral part of the equipment design, manufacturing and testing.

Cogeim has vast experience in developing process automation systems ensuring:

Operator safety
Reliable machine control
Integrated process control for the equipment and peripheral support

Cogeim can provide very simple solutions to highly complex systems, integrating plant production control, monitoring systems, data recording, history mapping and “recipe” management for different products.
