Granulation is important in the pharmaceutical industry because of increased pressures due to the costs of manufacturing solid dosage forms. Granulation forms coarser collections from fine powder.

The authors explain a process for moisture-activated dry granulation in detail and provide guidance for the selection of excipients and equipment. In the pharmaceutical industry, the three most common ...

Granulation is a critical unit operation in pharmaceutical manufacturing, where fine powders are agglomerated into granules to improve flow properties, uniformity, and compaction performance. The ...

The Hosokawa Micron Group is specialised in Mixing, Drying, Agglomeration, Compaction, Grinding & Classifying and allied Powder Processing Systems. The main activities are concentrated in the field of ...

In dry granulation, powders bind because of the application of mechanical stress. As particles are forced to be within closer proximity, entrained air is forced out, bulk density increases, and a ...

Granulation processes are used for converting light fine powders into large, dense granules to make fast-dissolving drinks, optimized blends for compression tableting, and granules for waste water ...

At the manufacturing level, pharmaceutical manufacturers are leveraging advanced technologies and automation to address challenges such as sample under fill and overfill, detect contaminants and other ...

The pharmaceutical manufacturing platforms of fluid-bed granulation and milling are widely used to modify particle size. However, the adoption of process analytical technology to monitor and control ...
