Process for mixing powders

Mixers are indispensable in the pharmaceutical, chemical and food industries when it comes to precise, homogeneous and valid production processes . In the pharmaceutical industry in particular, the mixing process is one of the most important processing steps in the production of medicines and pharmaceuticals.
In tablet production, mixers ensure that different solids are mixed evenly and homogeneously . A uniform particle size and particle size distribution is essential for the miscibility of solids.

Areas of application for mixers

Mixers or container mixers are used in different scenarios for production purposes, depending on the area of application and type.

A key area of application for mixers is the homogeneous mixing of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) with Excipients. Uniform distribution is essential to ensure a consistent dosage of active ingredients in each tablet or capsule.

Mixers are indispensable in almost all stages of pharmaceutical solids production. They ensure Process Safety, product quality and regulatory compliance.

Granulate mixture after drying

After Wet Granulation and subsequent drying, the granulate is processed in a mixer to ensure uniform particle distribution. This improves the flow properties and creates an optimum basis for tablet compression.

Direct compression

The quality of the powder mixture is crucial, especially for direct injection. Container mixers from L.B. Bohle ensure a homogeneous mixture and even distribution.

Product development and Scale-up

Smaller, mobile mixers are often used in Research & Development. This is where new formulations are developed and tested or existing formulations are scaled up for subsequent large-scale production. The flexibility of the mixers is a major advantage here.

Production of combination preparations

Combination preparations contain several Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) in one tablet. Mixers enable a controlled and uniform integration of these substances, which is crucial for the therapeutic effect and regulatory release.
