Pharmaceutical machinery plays a crucial role in the production of medications and other healthcare products, encompassing a wide range of equipment designed to ensure efficiency in drug manufacturing processes. These processing equipment are utilized throughout various stages of pharmaceutical production including formulation, mixing, granulation, tableting, capsule filling, coating, packaging and quality control.
Types of pharma equipment include:
1.Tablet presses which compress powdered ingredients into solid dosage forms.
2.Capsule filling machines that accurately dispense medication into gelatin or vegetable based capsules.
3.Granulators that create uniform particles for better drug absorption;
4.Coating equipment that apply protective or taste covering layers to tablets.
5.Blenders and Mixers for combining ingredients.
6.Fluid Bed processors for drying, granulating and coating particles.
7.High Energy mixers, Spray dryers and Freeze dryers essential for specific formulations.
8.Packaging machinery including blister packing machines, bottle fillers and labeling equipment ensures proper containment and identification of finished products.
9.Quality control devices like dissolution testers, hardness testers and analytical instruments are integral for maintaining product standards.
10.Sterilization equipment and varied automation solutions.
Applications:
1.Capping and sealing of medications.
2.Aerosol drying for powder production.
3.Milling and size reduction of ingredients.
4.Filtration and purification of liquids.
5.Homogenization of emulsions and suspensions.
6.Tablet counting and sorting.
7.Ointment and cream production.
8.Softgel encapsulation.
