Gleaming, inviting, New Age—the siren call to Americans who love their gadgets. But is a home freeze-dryer the appliance for you? Here is some information designed to cut through the advertising hype and provide a voice of reason on the pros and cons of home freeze-dryer ownership. The Science Behind Freeze Drying ... Read More
The fundamental principle in freeze-drying is sublimation , the shift from a solid directly into a gas. Just like evaporation, sublimation occurs when a molecule gains enough energy to break free from the molecules around it. Water will sublime from a solid (ice) to a gas (vapor) when the molecules have enough energy to break free but the conditions aren't right for a liquid to form. There are two major factors that determine what phase (solid, liquid or gas) a substance will take: heat and atmospheric pressure. For a substance to take any particular phase, the temperature ...

First, an overview of powder mixing In pharmaceuticals, food additives, powder metallurgy, chemical and many other industries need to be a variety of powder in a certain proportion of uniform mixing together, and then processed into the end product. In this process, the uniform distribution of powder of various components has a direct and important effect on the properties of the final product. The so-called hybrid, that is, powder material in the external force (gravity or mechanical force, etc.) under the action of speed and direction of movement changes, so that the comp ... Read More

The Double Cone Blender is a versatile piece of machinery for mixing dry powders and any type of granule in a homogenous manner. The slant design of this double cone blender eliminates any dead spots that sometimes occur in the traditional and conventional double cone mixer. There is a conical shape that enables a very uniform mixing and a very easy discharge. They can handle large capacities and are easy to clean, load, and unload. Working principle of Double Cone Blender Double cone blender comes in a standard and compact design. All the powder and granules are loaded int ... Read More
Diffusion mixers, also known as tumbling mixers/blender is a powder/solid mixing equipment that consists of a closed metallic vessel (usually stainless steel) that rotates about an axis either manually or with the help of a motor at an optimum speed. Powder particles, unlike fluids, must first be set in motion by some external action to achieve a proper mix. Diffusion is the main mechanism of mixing in tumbling mixer. The powdered materials to be blended are loaded into the blender container and the movement of the powdered particles occurs by tilting the material beyond th ... Read More
Shrink Sleeve labels are full-color 360-degree printed labels that utilize heat in the application process to conform the label to the shape of the product to which it is applied. These labels are printed on either plastic or polyester film material. The durability of shrink sleeves make them well-suited for products that encounter moisture or friction. WHY SHOULD YOU CHOOSE SHRINK WRAP ARTWORK? One of the largest benefits of employing shrink sleeve labels versus traditional labels is the ability to have your artwork conform to unique packaging shapes. Vibrant graphics and ... Read More
When it comes time to label your cans or bottles, there are many different label options on the market. Many people decide on BOPP or traditional paper labeling technologies for their bottles, but a sleeve labeling machine provides an interesting alternative with several benefits. Sleeve labels provide a greater range of design options and are more durable than other label types. Here's what you need to know about the sleeve labeling machine: 1. More Durable Labels The material that is used in shrink sleeve labels is highly resistant to tearing and damage, especially once t ... Read More
Tablet presses are machines designed to compress pharmaceutical powders and granules into tablets. They must be highly precise in order to create uniform tablets that each contain the same amount of active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients. This page will cover some key essentials that you need to know about these vital machines. Importance of Tablet Presses in the Pharmaceutical Industry The pharmaceutical industry manufactures vast numbers of tablets every day, and the safety of patients can depend on the uniformity of each dosage unit. As such, the precision capa ... Read More
Tablets are made by compressing a formulation containing a drug or drugs with or without excipients on stamping machine called presses. Tablet presses are designed including following basic components: · Hopper for holding and feeding granules. · Dies that define the size and shape of the tablet. · Punches for compressing the granules within the dies. · Cam tracks for guiding the movement of the punches. · A feeding mechanism for moving granules from hopper into the dies Tablets presses are classified either single punch or multi-station rotary presses. In the case of singl ... Read More
