LCI Corporation: Engineering Expertise for Process Manufacturing

LCI designs and engineers advanced process systems for demanding manufacturing environments. Headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, LCI provides evaporation, drying, extrusion, spheronization, and industrial powder feeding technologies to manufacturers across the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, food, and specialty chemical industries.

LCI's approach is rooted in process engineering expertise and application knowledge. The company works closely with manufacturers at every stage, from initial process evaluation through equipment selection, testing, and production-scale implementation. This depth of application support distinguishes LCI as a process technology partner, not just an equipment supplier.

Central to this commitment is LCI's fully equipped Test Center, where customers can evaluate equipment performance, validate process conditions, and develop scale-up strategies using laboratory and pilot-scale systems before committing to a full production investment.

Technologies Featured at Booth #419

Evaporation and Drying Systems

LCI's evaporation and drying technologies are developed for processing applications involving heat-sensitive compounds, high-viscosity materials, and challenging solvent recovery requirements. These systems are well-suited to agrochemical applications where active ingredient stability, solvent management, and process consistency are critical.

Featured solutions include:

  • Thin film and wiped film evaporators for efficient solvent removal and product concentration
  • Short path evaporators for high vacuum distillation of thermally sensitive materials
  • Thin film dryers for solvent and moisture removal from active compounds
  • High-viscosity processing systems engineered for challenging material handling requirements

These technologies help manufacturers achieve reliable thermal separation, effective solvent recovery, and consistent product quality across a range of agrochemical and specialty chemical applications.

Extrusion and Spheronization Systems

LCI's extrusion and spheronization technologies provide manufacturers with effective tools for granulation, pellet production, and controlled particle formation. These systems are applicable across agrochemical formulation processes where uniform particle size, density, and morphology are process requirements.

Highlighted solutions include:

  • Extrusion systems engineered for controlled particle formation and consistent throughput
  • The Marumerizer® spheronizer for producing uniform, dense pellets with controlled release characteristics
  • LCI’s systems are scalable from laboratory evaluation to full production

These technologies support agrochemical manufacturers focused on achieving precise formulation control, consistent pellet quality, and scalable production performance.

Modular Processing Systems

LCI also offers modular processing systems designed to provide flexible, compact, and installation-ready solutions for manufacturers requiring efficient use of available production space and rapid deployment capability.

Modular systems are particularly relevant for agrochemical operations requiring:

  • Process flexibility across multiple formulations or product lines
  • Compact system footprints in constrained production environments
  • Scalable configurations that can be expanded as production demands grow
  • Pre-engineered systems that reduce installation complexity and commissioning timelines

These modular processing solutions help manufacturers improve operational flexibility, accelerate project implementation, and support scalable production growth while maintaining process efficiency and reliability.

Process Testing and Scale-Up Support

LCI's Test Center in Charlotte, North Carolina, provides manufacturers with the ability to evaluate process performance before committing to production-scale investment.

Laboratory and pilot-scale testing capabilities support:

  • Process validation and performance benchmarking
  • Equipment selection and configuration analysis
  • Scale-up planning and parameter development
  • Operational optimization for existing production processes

For agrochemical manufacturers navigating complex scale-up requirements or evaluating new processing approaches, LCI's Test Center provides a structured pathway from process concept to production-ready implementation.
