UAM Universal Motor Drive
UAM Universal Motor Drive industry-standardized tool with attachment flange.
The UAM Universal Motor Drive is the central drive unit of the Pharmag Pilot Plant System, providing reliable power and control for a broad range of flanged processing attachments. Designed for R&D, formulation development, pilot-scale trials, and low-volume batch manufacturing, it allows one drive platform to support multiple processing operations.
With its industry-standard attachment flange, the UAM is designed to operate compatible Pharmag attachments and can also accommodate flanged attachments from other brands. It supports applications including blending, mixing, homogenization, granulation, pelletizing, crushing, coating, and the dosing and filling of liquid and semi-solid products.
