Overview
POWDEREYE® for Inline Powder Analysis
Even the smallest deviation in quality and consistency during the drying process can lead to problems, rejected product or loss of production time.
GEA’s range of process control and monitoring systems are designed to optimize your spray drying process, giving you the best possible return at the lowest cost of ownership. With a range of sophisticated features to increase output efficiency, save energy and monitor product quality, each system offers significant advantages and ways to improve your production — and your profitability.
GEA’s POWDEREYE® in-line analysis platform measures the main powder properties of the end product, including residual moisture content, dark particles and density, enabling supervision of the product quality from the control room as well as process optimization via advanced software such as GEA OptiPartner.
Positioned after the final drying stage, the patent pending POWDEREYE® continuously measures:
- residual moisture
- dark particles (by hi-res imaging)
- bulk density
- packed density
- protein and fat content (optional).
Constructed of stainless steel and fitted with an anti-static polypropylene sample cup, the POWDEREYE® is ATEX-compatible and issues operator warnings when out-of-specification conditions are detected, providing a basis for final product control and process adjustments.
The autosampling function, operated by local touchscreen or from a SCADA system, collects a 200 mL aliquot from the product stream, which is presented to the test instruments and then either returned to the product flow or discharged through an external sample collection port.
Benefits:
- optimize moisture content in the final powder
- identify dark scorched particles (>=100 µm) before a dangerous situation arises
- timed or on-demand reference sampling
- limited powder handling
- sensitive, repeatable and reliable testing.

GEA Insights
All pharmaceutical freeze-drying vials are the same! Aren't they?
Whether it’s a fad or the future, 100% vial traceability is becoming an increasingly important consideration in the pharmaceutical freeze drying industry. Keeping a close eye on developments is GEA. We’re investigating possible solutions and, what’s more, we have the experience, expertise and know-how to implement them.
Piwo bezalkoholowe: Wszyscy go pragną – piwa, nie alkoholu
Był taki czas, kiedy frazy „piwo bezalkoholowe” oraz „smakuje dobrze” bardzo rzadko pojawiały się w tym samym zdaniu, zwłaszcza w ustach konsumentów. Ale sektor piw o niskiej zawartości alkoholu i bezalkoholowych zdążył przejść bardzo długą drogę – wiele tego typu produktów to obecnie ożywcze napoje tworzące osobną kategorię – w dużej mierze dzięki technologii GEA.
Innovating patient care with aseptic spray drying
At GEA, our commitment to engineering for a better world fuels our pursuit of innovative solutions that enhance patient care and safety. One of our most promising ventures in recent years is aseptic spray drying – a technology that promises to revolutionize pharmaceutical manufacturing.
