USED FITZPATRICK 4L X 10D

Manufacturer Information

Manufacturer: The Fitzpatrick Company

Model: 4L x 10D

Type: Chilsonator / Roller Compactor

Condition: Used – excellent operational condition

Description
This used Fitzpatrick Chilsonator, Model 4L x 10D, is a high-quality stainless steel roller compactor designed for dry granulation and densification of powders in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries.
Equipped with 10" diameter x 4" face grooved stainless steel rolls, the Chilsonator compresses fine powders into dense ribbons or flakes, which can then be milled into uniform granules. Production rate varies with material density, roll pressure, and screw speed, ranging from approximately 50 to 100 kg/hr (110–220 lbs/hr).
The Fitzpatrick Chilsonator line is known for robust design, precise roll gap control, and consistent particle size distribution — ideal for pilot plant, R&D, or small-scale continuous processing.

What Might This Be Used For?
The Fitzpatrick Chilsonator 4L x 10D is used for dry granulation and densification of powders, forming uniform ribbons or sheets that are subsequently milled into granules. It’s ideal for pharmaceutical, food, and chemical production lines where moisture-sensitive or heat-sensitive materials must be compacted without wet granulation.
This model’s 10" x 4" grooved stainless rolls deliver reliable compression and consistent product density for small- to mid-scale production or pilot operations.
