Different types of pharmaceutical machines
There are various types of pharmaceutical machines which provide reliable products. The different machines are roll compactor, tablet press machine, rapid mixer granulator, oscillating granulator, multi mill machine, de-burring and de-dusting machine and so on.
Roll compactor machine is very popular and used for dry granulation purpose. The machine makes fine powder into chips through the use of rotating rollers. Then the produced chips are reduced into small size of granules. The granule size must be chosen very carefully otherwise it will produce thick granules. The produced fine can again be recycled by roll compactor machine. The surface of the roller is selected according to the powder characteristics. If it is familiar with the machine, then the team will place perfect roller surface for production of granules. Roll compactor machine also comes in mini roll compactor and roller compactor for more fine granules. The features of roll compactor machine are that it is available in three types of rolls that are plain, corrugated and knurled. It also has compact designs and can achieve maximum density through rolls. It also automatically loads material by the use of vacuum transfer system and so on.
Tablet Press Machine form tablets of equal size and weight by compressing the powder. Tablets are produced from punching and die action. Granulated material is fused into a hard tablet through hard pressure compression. There are two types of tablet machine that are single punch press machine and rotary tablet press machine. The features of tablet press machine are it can produce different types of tablets like round tablets, improper tablets and so on. It is very easy to operate, safe, very easy to clean, etc.
Rapid mixture granulator is used for wet granulation. It is also called high shear mixer. The rapid mixer make wet granules and processed it into the uniform size of granules by passing into blades which convert mass into granules. It provides excellent and consistent granules with high productivity at an affordable cost. It mixes wet mass very well and form tablets. The features of rapid mixer granulator are that it is very portable, have interchangeable bowl capacity, reduce the risk of accident due to enclosed moving part and so many more.
Oscillating granulator is used for both dry and wet granulation. It produces the best quality of tablets in the mean time preventing fine generation. The tablets quality depends on granules which then compressed in machine producing fine granules. The various features of it are that its operation and cleaning is very simple, produce high productivity, easy to adjust, durable and so on.
Multi mill machine is also similar to oscillator granulator, but it also used for pulverization. In this machine, the material is processed and collected into the container from which high-quality product is produced that is tablets. The features are that very portable, easy operation, flameproof machine, etc.
