Granulation helps promote the flowability, compressibility, bioavailability, and homogeneity of the API mix. There are different granulation methods and techniques, which influence the properties of the granules.

First, the major granulation line processes include:

1. Direct Compaction
2. Dry granulation
3. Wet granulation

Tests have shown that direct compaction leads to problems with the flow of powder and the grains sticks on the surface of machines during compression.

Binder liquids used include:

• Propan-2-ol/isopropanol (organic)
• Ethanol (organic)
• Water

Organic solvents (isopropanol and ethanol) are added to an API mix that can react with water (hydrolysis).

International Standard Rapid Mixer Granulators

We are a leading high shear mixer manufacturer, and always at your disposal for any information required regarding high shear or rapid mixer granulators.

 

A High Shear Mixer Granulator (HSMG) is a type of pharmaceutical and industrial equipment used for the production of granules from powder or other solid materials. It’s commonly employed in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food processing, and chemical manufacturing. The primary purpose of a high shear mixer granulator is to combine powders and binders to form granules with the desired properties, such as size, density, and flowability.

Here’s how a high shear mixer granulator works:

1. Powder Mixing: Initially, the dry powders, which can include active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), excipients, binders, and fillers, are loaded into the mixing chamber of the granulator.

 

1. Wet Granulation: A liquid binder solution is added to the powders. This liquid can be water or a solvent containing binding agents. The mixing impeller, commonly referred to as a “chopper” or “impeller blade,” rotates at high speeds, causing the powders to mix and form wet aggregates.

 

1. Shearing and Granulation: As the impeller blade continues to rotate at high speeds, it creates shear forces and turbulence within the mixture. This shearing action breaks down larger wet aggregates into smaller particles, promoting uniform wetting and granule formation. The high shear forces also help in distributing the binder evenly, ensuring proper adhesion between particles.

 

1. Drying: After the desired granule size and uniformity are achieved, the wet granules are dried to remove the moisture added during the wet granulation process. Some high shear mixer granulators have built-in drying capabilities, while others might require transferring the wet granules to a separate drying unit.

 

1. Sizing and Sieving: Once the granules are dry, they might undergo sizing and sieving to achieve the desired particle size distribution.

High Shear Mixer Granulators offer several advantages:

• Efficient granule formation due to intense mixing and shearing forces.
• Enhanced uniformity of granules, leading to consistent product quality.
• Rapid and controlled wetting of powders, aiding in binder distribution.
• Flexibility to adjust parameters such as impeller speed, binder flow rate, and processing time.
• Potential reduction in processing time compared to traditional granulation methods.

However, there are some considerations:

• Equipment and maintenance costs can be relatively high.
• Process validation might be required for regulatory compliance in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
• The selection of appropriate binders and excipients is crucial for successful granulation.
• Operator training is essential to ensure safe and effective operation.

High Shear Granulation Machine – Evaluating the design must include all parts such as (not limited to these):

• Granulation Container
• Impeller Design
• Chopper Design
• Sealing Mechanism
• Drive Mechanism
• Granules Discharge
• Machine Frame and Structure
• Granules Milling

• Electrical and Control Panel

 

Overall, high shear mixer granulators are valuable tools in industries where granule formation is a critical step in the manufacturing process. They enable efficient and controlled granulation, contributing to the production of high-quality products.
