Video Showing Extraction of Filtering Sheet

Delta is excited to share that we are delivering three Delta Nutsche Filter Dryer 200s to a customer in Spain. In the video below, where the three machines are situated together, we share the moment when the filtering sheet automatically moves from the bottom of the filter dryer. This extraction allows operators to seamlessly perform maintenance on the filtering sheet and the dryer itself.

Powder Mixer Delivery

While Delta is known for its sophisticated solutions in the form of reactors and dryers, we also develop machines that are appropriate for the latter part of an API process.

Here we have a powder mixer, which is a simple machine that is used to mix two or more powders together. This was delivered to an API producer in northern Italy, and it can process 3,000 liters of product at a time.

Pilot Nutsche Delivery

Delta recently delivered a small pilot Nutsche filter dryer for API production to a customer in Northern Italy. The machine is made of C-22, and is equipped with a glove box for high potent molecules. The dryer was also included our complete production line: a control system, heating system, and vacuum system.

Successful FAT for Horizontal Paddle Dryer

Delta performed a FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) of a 300-liter Horizontal Paddle Dryer. This particular machine will be used as a pilot unit for API production. The dryer is made of stainless steel, has a vacuum and control system, and – most importantly – has an automatic opening system for its front door.

Distillation Column Developed for Cosmic Research

Delta recently completed an exciting project with our parent company, Polaris S.r.l. We developed a distillation column for which Polaris focused on the process while Delta focused on the mechanical solutions and provided necessary construction features.

This particular vessel produces an exceptionally pure solvent. It was constructed for a pool of international research institutes preparing an experiment on the makeup of the universe to discover matter structure. Part of the project focuses on the production of LinearAlkil Benzene (LAB) with a purity of 1x10E-15. That means that there is one particle of impurity per 1,000,000,000,000,000 of LAB particles!

LAB is a solvent that is used in the experiment as a scintillator. When pure and stressed by sub atomic matter structure particles, it releases a signal based on photons.

The plant where this column is installed is located in a cave, deep underground in order to avoid disturbance from cosmic microwave background.

Originally, the distillation column had been designed to minimize dead area and maximize cleanability (which is typical for the API market.) The construction followed particular procedures to allow for the lowest possible pollution of the internal volume of the vessels. Delta designed very special trays and distributors, and provided very high quality finishing (polishing + electropolishing) on the interior vessels’ surfaces. While this is typical for the API market, it is unusual for such complex geometry.

New delivery – Complete Pilot Plant

April, 2020

Delta Costruzioni Meccaniche has designed, manufactured, tested and delivered a complete pilot plant for reaction, filtration and drying composed by two reactors, suitable for hydrogenation process too, a nutsche filter dryer, a heating/cooling unit and control system.

The pilot plant is dedicated to the production of API and ingredients.

The machines are been designed satisfying the installation lay-out constrains of our Customer, an Italian leading Company in API production.
