Abstract
A device for forming and coating solid particles comprises a rotating disc interiorly defining a process chamber and which can assume a rest position in which is interiorly closes the chamber and a working position in which it affords an annular passage through which a process gas is allowed to enter the chamber. A rotary hydraulic motor commands rotation of the disc; two hydraulic linear actuators perform vertical displacement of the disc. Both the motor and the actuators are located immediately below the disc. An especially advantageous use of the device is as a granulator or as a coater of granules.
