Gain Control of Particle Size and Consistency with SprayDry® Nozzles

Atomization, the process of generating drops, is the most critical step in the spray drying process. Final powder structure and quality can be compromised if drop size isn’t precisely controlled and uniformly delivered. Very big or very small drops adversely affect the particle and result in incomplete or over-drying. Product can build-up on nozzles and dryer walls, causing frequent maintenance, dangerous hot spots and potential batch contamination. Our SprayDry® nozzles feature:

  • Uniform drop size distribution
  • Anti-Bearding caps with a recessed tip to reduce build-up
  • Broad choice of drop sizes controlled by the nozzle’s capacity and pressure
  • Increased passages that resist clogging
  • Sanitary design to facilitate FDA compliance

The flexible design of our SprayDry nozzles allows you to interchange orifice insert/core combinations to configure a nozzle that meets your exact particle size requirements. The nozzles create a hollow cone spray pattern with superior drop size distribution.
