What equipment for solid preparations uses compressed air

Application Analysis of Compressed Air in Solid Preparation Production

in the production process of solid preparations (such as tablets, capsules, granules), compressed air is widely used in many core links as a key power source and process medium. Granklin water lubricated single screw air compressor with its oil-free lubrication, high cleanliness output of the technical characteristics, can provide the pharmaceutical industry in line with strict standards of compressed air solutions, specific application scenarios are as follows:

1. Raw material handling and transportation

• airflow conveying system: Compressed air drives the airtight transportation of powder or granular raw materials through the pipeline to avoid material exposure and pollution. Granklin air compressor's oil-free air flow can prevent oil molecules from attaching to raw materials, ensuring the purity of the initial stage of the drug.
• Screening and mixing equipment pneumatic vibrating screen and mixer rely on compressed air to drive screen vibration or material mixing to ensure the uniformity of raw materials. Clean gas source can avoid the influence of oil pollution on screening accuracy or mixing effect.

2. Granulation and tabletting process

• wet granulator: Compressed air is used to drive the granulation blade or control the spray system to achieve uniform mixing of the powder and the adhesive. Oil-free air can avoid oil pollution in the granulation process and ensure the quality stability of the granules.
• high-speed tablet press pneumatically driven packing system, pressure control device relies on stable air pressure to achieve precise tabletting. Granklin air compressor through intelligent pressure regulation technology, to ensure that the pressure output is stable, to avoid the difference in tablet weight or hardness caused by fluctuations in air pressure.

3. Coating and packaging

• film coating machine: Compressed air drives the coating liquid atomizing nozzle to form a uniform film. The clean gas source prevents oil molecules from mixing into the coating layer and affecting the appearance or dissolution properties of the drug.
• automatic packing line: Pneumatic gripper and sealing device rely on compressed air to achieve high-speed and accurate operation. Gronklin's low dust output (through water membrane adsorption filtration) reduces particle contamination in the packaging process and meets Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) requirements.

4. Cleaning and disinfection process

• in-line cleaning system (CIP): Compressed air is used to drive the rotation of the cleaning nozzle or purge residual materials to ensure the cleanliness of the equipment. Oil-free air flow can avoid oil residue after cleaning and reduce the risk of cross-contamination.
• Environmental Control: High efficiency filter (HEPA) or air curtain device driven by compressed air to maintain a positive pressure environment in the production area and prevent the intrusion of external pollutants.

Adaptation Advantage of Granklin Air Compressor
granklin water-lubricated single-screw air compressor outputs completely oil-free compressed air through physical compression and water medium lubrication technology, and its cleanliness can meet the stringent requirements of the pharmaceutical industry for "zero pollution" air sources. At the same time, the equipment has low operating temperature and low noise, which is suitable for the high standard of environmental control in the production of solid preparations, helping enterprises to achieve the dual goals of compliant production and quality improvement.
