Application of Screw Air Compressor Compressed Air in Pharmaceutical Industry

When it comes to medicine, everyone should be familiar with it. However, most people are not very clear about the production process of drugs. Screw air compressors are often used in the production of drugs. So what role does the air compressor play in the pharmaceutical industry? This article will explain in detail.

In our customer group, there happened to be those engaged in the research and development of biomedical technology. We had the honor to visit its drug packaging and packaging workshop and saw that boxes of drugs were passing through the light inspection machine. Defective products were quickly identified. The drugs passing through the light inspection machine were transferred to the labeling machine and labeled for later traceability. The entire workshop, are automated equipment, rarely see workers. And to provide power to these equipment is the screw air compressor compressed air. Not only in this workshop, but also in the whole production process of drugs, compressed air can be seen. For example, airflow crushing for crushing, pneumatic stirring in blending, spraying airflow atomization in coating process, etc.

Compressed air has two main uses in the pharmaceutical production process:

the driving power source of the 1. equipment. Provide power for the pneumatic components of the equipment, including cylinders, pneumatic valves, pneumatic motors, etc. In this case, the quality requirements for compressed air are relatively low, as long as the water content is not too much;

2. drug material transfer power source. In the production process, compressed air and drugs will be in direct contact, so there are strict requirements on the moisture, oil content, impurity quantity and stability of compressed air, and also put forward higher requirements on the purity of compressed gas.

Screw air compressor as a commonly used power equipment for the production of pharmaceutical equipment to provide sufficient, pure gas source. In the process of using the air compressor system occasionally there will be some small problems, which requires us to master the common fault handling methods. Operate in strict accordance with the specifications and do a good job of unit maintenance to ensure the continuous and stable operation of the unit.
