【Case Study】GMP Compliant! Space-Saving Centrifuge JMP-S
Cleanroom compatible, space-saving design. Horizontal centrifuge with excellent washability.
We received a request from Company Z, which manufactures pharmaceuticals and active pharmaceutical ingredients, stating, "We would like to introduce a centrifuge that complies with GMP and can be confidently presented during inspections." In response, we supplied the horizontal centrifuge "JMP-S." The JMP-S contributes to space-saving in clean rooms and makes swab and cleaning verification easy. It reduces the operator's workload and also improves cleaning efficiency in multi-product production. Additionally, it comes standard with CIP cleaning and immersion cleaning mechanisms, automating the internal cleaning that was previously done manually. Due to its reliable cleaning and high verifiability, it has been chosen by many pharmaceutical manufacturers. After its introduction, it has achieved reduced burden and improved safety, and it is a highly rated model that has received repeat orders.
basic information
The JMP-S is a horizontal centrifuge designed with GMP compliance in mind. By adopting a manual casing opening and closing mechanism, it eliminates the need for hydraulic or electric devices, achieving an oil-free structure that does not contaminate clean rooms. When the casing is opened, the basket is right in front, making cleaning, inspection, and filter material replacement easy. It comes standard with a CIP cleaning nozzle, allowing for fully automatic and uniform cleaning. Additionally, it supports immersion cleaning, enabling efficient cleaning with a small amount of cleaning solution. Since all operations are conducted under sealed conditions, operators do not come into contact with solvents or gases, maintaining a consistently clean working environment. The design separates the drive unit and the process unit with a wall, allowing the drive unit to be installed outside the clean room, thus achieving space-saving.

Applications/Examples of results
At Company Z, when introducing the new plant, they emphasized inspection compliance and ensuring cleanliness. In the conventional machines, cleaning tasks took a long time, and the swab verification process was complicated, placing a burden on operators. However, the introduction of JMP-S resolved these issues. By simply opening the casing, the entire interior can be easily inspected, allowing for quick swab and cleanliness checks, significantly improving work efficiency. Furthermore, the combination of fully automated CIP cleaning and immersion cleaning achieves a high level of cleanliness in a short time. In the cleanroom, it can be installed in a space-saving manner, effectively utilizing the limited space. After the introduction, it has led to improvements in the work environment, enhanced safety, and reduced labor costs, resulting in repeat orders.
Detailed information
-
◎Improved Crystal Recovery Rate By attaching a nozzle to the scraping device, it is possible to detach residual crystals from the filter cloth using high-pressure air or N2 gas, allowing for the most efficient recovery of crystals. Additionally, it facilitates the removal of liquid during reuse. Furthermore, when processing different chemicals, the use of high-pressure water for cleaning the filter cloth enhances efficiency.
-
◎Labor-saving, automation, and unmanned operation - The entire process from slurry supply, separation, cake washing, to crystal recovery and cleaning can be fully automated and controlled via a control panel without human intervention, enabling labor-saving operations without the need for operator involvement. - By using metal filter media, there is no need to replace the filter cloth.
