MILLING PROCESS IN PHARMACEUTICAL MANUFACTURING:

MILLING PROCESS: Milling process is also called as ‘screening’ and ‘sizing’ process. Milling is employed between RMG and Blending to crush the larger particles from granulation into uniform small particles which meets the process requirement. Milling isperformed to remove lumps, improve flow, reduce segregation and to control the particle size. Milling is performed by using … Read more

GRANULATION PROCESS IN PHARMACEUTICAL MANUFACTURING:

Granulation is required to improve the flow of powder mixtures and mechanical properties of Tablet. Granulation is the act or process in which primary powder particles are made to adhere to form larger, multiparticle entities called granules. It is the process of collecting particles together by creating bonds between them. Bonds are formed by compression … Read more

Sifting Process in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing:

Sifting is a screening process to exclude foreign matter / particles (if any) and particles beyond the required size. Sifting is carried out by allowing particles to pass through specified mesh under the influence of vibration and gyration. The mesh (sieve) size is specified as the number of pores on 1 inch. Example 100 mesh … Read more
