There are significant benefits to dry granulation, in terms of cost-reduction and processing, and it can be used with sensitive materials. However, there is little indication as to which process ...

To illustrate the intelligent-compaction (IC) roller’s potential to increase production, Kevin Garcia—road and paving construction segment manager for Trimble Navigation—relates an experiment Trimble ...

The moniker aptly describes the machine: combination roller. Take a double drum vibratory compactor, swap out the rear drum for an axle carrying four tires, and a manufacturer can field a machine that ...

Using a novel automated microfilling system, the authors demonstrate that roller compaction followed by milling is a viable preprocessing technique for high-dose chemical-in-capsule dosage forms. The ...

Several challenges may be presented when processing powder blends: the blend may be prone to segregation, the creation of agglomerates may influence homogeneity, or component powders may poorly flow ...
