    Ecublens, Switzerland: – Leading provider of powder handling systems, the Swiss Dec Group, will use its presence at the prestige American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists (AAPS) annual meeting in Orlando, Florida, to showcase its new microdosing system, MicroPTS.

    The Dec Group Exposition stand at Booth 1304 at the Orlando County Convention Center will feature live demonstrations of the MicroPTS, showing its abilities to handle volumetric dosing of powders down to 0.5 µg, which can be adjusted during process. The MicroPTSuses vacuum to fill its variable volume calibrated chamber and the emptying is done mechanically and/or by gravity and/or with pressure.

    PTS technology

    MicroPTS also features ultra compact hygienic design that can be easily integrated into an existing production line, including isolated (aseptic&HPAPI) processing along with gravimetric or optical monitoring of each powder dose, with simultaneous multiple dosing and continuous dosing modes available.

    Dec will also live demo other key components of its innovative and high containment solutions, based on its patented Powder Transfer System (PTS) technology. These include sampling and jet mill micronizing equipment.

    Expanded solutions

    “MicroPTS will be very much the star of the show in Orlando, so far as we are concerned,” said Jean-Jacques Schwartz, Dec Group R&D Engineer.

    This new solution is probably one of the most reliable pieces of equipment available in terms of accuracy for microdosing. It is probably unique in its ability to handle challenging powders, including sticky, ultra-fine, hygroscopic, explosive and toxic substances,” said Schwartz.
