Mechanical milling remains an important formulation step in the pharmaceutical industry, typically best suited to delivering uniform particle sizes above 20 microns. Whether your drug is in development, starting clinical trials, or ready for commercial production, FPS mills can deliver a mechanical milling solution that consistently achieves this, enhancing particle homogeneity, distribution uniformity, compound bioavailability and solubility.
From ensuring proper blend uniformity to optimizing release profiles, our mechanical milling operations provide superior pharmaceutical results.
FPS Mechanical Mills available are: PinMill-100, PinMill-200, HammerMill-100 and HammerMill-200.
Hammer Mill– High-throughput hammer mills can help you achieve a variety of particle size-reduction requirements; including delumping, milling to a specific particle range, and fine grinding applications. For pharmaceutical milling, xxxx employs hammers alongside interchangeable screen sizes, for greater control over the final particle size.
Pin Mill– This mill provides a uniform particle size without the need for screens. Particle size reduction takes place between two plates containing pins — one stationary and one rotating. Mechanical milling with a pin design can provide a smaller particle size than a hammer mill.
HammerMilling technology is a well known mechanical milling method to achieve fine grinding of dry powders starting from a raw material of 1-10mm below to 70μm.
Milling head completed with pin rotor and stator, operating speed up to 100m/s.
This system is completely customizable (from manual to fully automatic).
Size available: HammerMill-100 and HammerMill-200
Pin Milling technology is a well known mechanical milling method to achieve ne grinding of dry powders starting from a raw material of 1-10mm below to 70μm.
FPS PinMill is designed to reduce agglomerates of pharmaceutical, chemical and food products. The system includes hygienic design mill housing with interchangeable rotor and stator pins.
Size available: PinMill-100 and PinMill-200.
Yes in some cases you can. It’s going to depend on the process and the product. But first let’s start with some definitions. A mechanical mill grinds the product by crushing the particles between 2 mechanical parts: a static part called the stator and a moving part that rotates around it (called the rotor). Both are in the […]
Last month we asked our followers: Which is the best way to handle powders? Occupational Exposure Limits Quantities involved Particle size distribution Frequency & duration – process The right answer is Particle size distribution. Find out more here!
This week we asked our followers: how often do you check the status of your parts inventory? The possible answers were: Once every 2 months Once every 6 months Once a year Our advice Nowadays it is possible to have a real-time situation of parts inventory thanks to ERP systems. A proper management of safety stocks […]
Issues: Particle size reduction down to low micron is needed Operators must be protected because product is very dusty Large campaigns with expensive product: highest productivity is needed High Potent apis will be added in the future “High Potent Ready” solution: Air-tight separation cyclone with WIP to contain dust Modular micronization equipment for easy integration […]
