Used Utility Equipment for Pharmaceutical Manufacturers

Utilities are essential for bringing the pharmaceutical manufacturing process to life. For decades, Federal Equipment Company has helped pharmaceutical manufacturers source used utility equipment to reduce capital equipment costs and, at times, access used equipment when new equipment is unavailable or requires long lead times.

Used Pharmaceutical Processing Equipment FAQs

Do you offer a wide variety of used pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment?

Our extensive inventory is stored in more than 200,000 square feet of clean, controlled warehouse space, including a training and formulation lab operated by our Techceuticals team.

Customers save thousands of dollars on the purchase price and weeks (or even months) of lead time by purchasing used industrial equipment from Federal Equipment Company. Our inventory features end-to-end equipment options, including mixers, blenders, mills, wet and dry granulators, tablet presses, capsule fillers, totes and bins, primary packaging and secondary packaging, and more.

For over 65 years, Federal Equipment Company has been a reliable resource for processing and packaging equipment needs, with the expertise needed to buy and sell used industrial equipment in the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry.

Additionally, our asset recovery program mitigates the headaches of asset management for companies seeking to sell equipment with accurate appraisals based on in-depth knowledge and experience and advice on options to optimize the recouped value.

Yes. We encourage your team to perform an on-site inspection of our equipment, and we do everything in our power to run the equipment of interest. Often, our customers even send an OEM representative to conduct the inspection. However, we understand that representatives from your company may not always be available to inspect equipment in person. Therefore, we offer live video tours and demonstrations.

While we offer used pharmaceutical processing equipment for many market sectors, including aseptic manufacturing, biopharmaceutical manufacturing, semi-solids, liquids, and more. However, solid dosage manufacturing equipment is our primary market segment. We offer end-to-end equipment options for charging, mixing, blending, milling, wet and dry granulation, tablet presses, capsule fillers, coaters, totes and bins, and primary and secondary packaging. Solid dose pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment is used in handling, granulation, tableting, capsule filling, capsule banding, check weighing, coating, washing, accessories, and automatic visual inspection of tablets and capsules.
