Weighing process in tablet production

The weighing of active ingredients and excipients is a central process step in the pharmaceutical, chemical and food industries. Valid and reproducible production processes cannot be realised without precise weighing. In the pharmaceutical industry in particular, weighing is one of the most critical processes in the commercial production of drugs and medicines.

In tablet production, quality assurance begins with the exact weighing of the active ingredients and excipients used. The weighing systems from L.B. Bohle support production staff in realising this important step reliably and in compliance with GMP. This ensures a smooth start to production.

Whether manual or automated: Our weighing systems provide a reliable basis for the rest of the manufacturing process. Weighing is therefore the foundation for safe and efficient production.

Find the ideal machine for your production now

L.B. Bohle offers you a comprehensive range of state-of-the-art machines and systems for your tablet production. Individually tailored to your requirements, our machines optimise your production processes and ensure optimum quality. Our machine finder will guide you quickly and easily to the optimum solution for your processes.

With L.B. Bohle, you can achieve the highest production efficiency and maximum product quality.

Weighing methods, processes and technologies

L.B. Bohle weighing systems for pharmaceutical solids are modular, GMP-compliant complete solutions for weighing and dosing excipients and active ingredients.

The recipe-controlled weighing and recording of the ingredients can be carried out from a wide variety of containers - such as

  • Bags
  • Drums
  • Cartons
  • Big bags

Depending on the area of application, manual, semi-automatic or fully automatic solutions can be realised. Adapted to the material flow concept of each pharmaceutical production facility, L.B. Bohle weighing systems are integrated into single or multi-storey building concepts.

Efficient and GMP-compliant weighing systems

Weighing is one of the most critical steps in tablet production. Errors that occur during this process can no longer be corrected later in the production process.

Weighing systems must therefore fulfil the highest technical requirements - with precise resolution, stable measuring accuracy and a suitable weighing range.

Success factors in the weighing-in process

The raw materials are weighed precisely in terms of quality and quantity. This ensures an optimised process.

Automated recipe management and process specifications prevent Cross-contamination and product adulteration.

Control and Documentation of weighing systems

Every weighing process, whether manual or automated, must be fully documented. From the delivery of the raw materials to their preparation for production, complete traceability is mandatory.

Every weighing process is logged so that GMP-compliant execution can be verified at any time. If required, additional processing steps such as sieving or dosing can be integrated into the weighing process.

Automated weighing systems for maximum efficiency

Automated weighing systems increase efficiency and product safety: they enable precise weighing, complete raw material tracking and minimise manual intervention. Dust contamination and cross-contamination are significantly reduced thanks to closed systems and strict batch separation. In addition, modular weighing systems offer maximum flexibility when changing products.
