Different Types of Granulation and Compression Machine used in Pharmaceutical Industry

Granulation and compression are two very important processes that are carried out extensively by most pharmaceutical companies. However, the theory of granulation is little understood and the selection of a particular machine and granulation method, is often done on the basis of tradition, rather than by using strict scientific or cost-benefit criteria. The basic techniques have changed dramatically in recent years and granulation for controlled release, extrusion, spheronisation, fluidisation techniques, spray drying, melt extrusion, oral dispersion technology and roller compaction are new technologies that are increasingly being used in modern pharmaceutical production, which exhibit many advantages over previously available techniques. Here some advanced granulation and compression machine are described below :

Tablet Granulation Machine

High-shear mixer

A high-shear mixer disperses, or transports, one phase or ingredient (liquid, solid, gas) into a main continuous phase (liquid), with which it would normally be immiscible. A rotor or impellor, together with a stationary component known as a stator, or an array of rotors and stators, is used either in a tank containing the solution to be mixed, or in a pipe through which the solution passes, to create shear. A high-shear mixer can be used to create emulsions, suspensions, lyosols (gas dispersed in liquid), and granular products. It is used in the adhesives, chemical, cosmetic, food, pharmaceutical, and plastics industries for emulsification, homogenization, particle size reduction, and dispersion

  • Easy to clean
  • Entire working zone and stirrer can be dismantled quickly without using spanners
  • Simple screen holding and tensioning device
  • Availability of different mesh size of screen
  • Long life and economic cost of screen

Fluid Bed Top Spray Granulation

Granulation can be performed using fluid beds fitted with spray nozzles. During the last 10 years, fluid beds have improved dramatically in response to single pot technology competition. It is possible to have completely closed material handling by a closed linking with upstream and downstream equipment. Also, fully automatic cleaning (cleaning-in- place [CIP] and wash-in-place [WIP]) in fluid beds using stainless steel filters now compares favourably with what is possible in a single pot.

Roto Cube: High Shear Granulator and Single-pot Processor

Roto Cube is an all-in-one granulation solution guaranteeing high flexibility for both wet and single-pot processes, allowing quick maintenance operations and high percentage of material yield.

The machine is very compact as it has been designed to contain all its components in the same housing: processing bowl, filters, mill, discharge valve and heavy duty components. The bowl can be lifted to set the height according to each phase of the process, including discharge as high as the receiving bin, and can be fitted with a tilting system for a gentle treatment of granules and shortening the drying time.

All parts of Roto Cube are easily accessible with no need of lifting platforms and the machine can be simply integrated in plants where a maximum level of containment is required.

GZL series granulator pharmaceutical machine

 Features:

Making granules from dry power directly without any bonding agent and to carry out the 2nd heating and drying.The strength of granule can be adjusted by pressure of rollers so as to control strength of granule.Sand-shaped irregular granules are produced.Large productive capability due to continuous production, high degree of automation to suit automatic  production.

 Application:

Except those dangerous materials that are subject to explosion due to crushing and rubbing, most part of dry power materials can be directly granulated by this machine can also be suited for granulation of heat sensitive materials.

 HSD-100 Pharmaceutical Granule Mixing Machine(FDA&cGMP Approved)

Description:

This machine is mainly used in blending of solid particle and dust powder materials as the main equipment in the pharmaceutical laboratory. It is also widely used in food and chemical industries.

This machine is reasonable in structure stable in performance and easy in operation without dead angles and exposed screws. It adopts full automatic PLC control and is equipped with discharging butterfly valve as anti- misoperation device to ensure production safety.

Different working procedures in the same container effectively prevent prowder dust and cross contamination caused by frequent material feeding and transfer and reduces material loss at the same time Material layering control optimizes production process, fully complying with GMP requirements in drug production.
