The post-formation drying phase is a crucial step in the production of premium softgel capsules. One of the most popular oral dosages in the pharmaceutical and food supplement sectors are softgel (or soft gelatin) capsules. To preserve the integrity of the capsules and guard against compounding, it is crucial to carefully remove extra moisture from the gelatin throughout the softgel manufacturing process. The best method for the initial drying step is tumble drying. Softgel tumble dryer can produce high-quality soft gelatin capsules (softgels) quickly and with little damage or waste.
Market Dynamics
The largest consumers of softgel tumble dryer are softgel manufacturers. These companies manufacture softgels in enormous quantities that uses machinery for encapsulating, drying, and other processes. As a result, it is projected that the development of production facilities by softgel makers will be a major factor in the growth of the global softgel tumble dryer market. . For instance, on June 30, 2020, US$3.2 million expansion project at Catalent's consumer health production facilities in Strathroy, Canada, and Sorocaba, Brazil, was successfully finished. Catalent is a global provider of cutting-edge manufacturing, development, and delivery solutions for pharmaceuticals, biologics, cell and gene therapies, and consumer health products. As part of the recent expansion initiatives, each facility will have softgel encapsulation lines dedicated to Catalent's unique CosmoPod twist-off capsule and Vegicaps plant-based capsule technology. Softgel capsules that must be transferred to a softgel tumbler dryer for extra shaping and cooling after they fall out of the encapsulating machine are wet, soft, and fragile.
