There are several variables to consider when designing an optimal roll compaction system. Some of the typical engineering considerations encompass: Is the structure pre-existing or new construction? Where will the feed material enter into the system? How is the final product removed or transferred from the system? Which areas of the system require accessible points
Over the course of several decades, IPA has diligently gathered insights and refined our processes to perfection, spanning from the initial testing phase through design, manufacturing, and commissioning. Preliminary Analysis At IPA, our commitment to excellence begins with a comprehensive preliminary analysis conducted on all feed materials earmarked for roll compaction projects. This rigorous assessment
IPA boasts a robust team with a distinctive shared history of collaboration, where each partner brings a wealth of experience, expertise, and innovative ideas to the table. With years of direct engagement in turnkey roller compaction installations, we have honed our skills and knowledge to perfection. The inception of IPA has empowered us to break
As the name implies, Size Reduction is the fundamental process of reducing the dimensions of a material to achieve smaller, more optimal particle sizes. It serves as a cornerstone in various industries, offering the versatility to enhance material properties for a wide range of applications. Whether employed independently or synergistically with a roll compaction unit,
The LSM represents an advanced solution for companies seeking quality and functionality in their R&D facilities, mirroring the Fitzmill L1A. As a pivotal component in pharmaceutical milling, this mill excels in reducing particle sizes of both roll compacted sheets and/or feed materials, thereby enhancing flowability, solubility, and bioavailability. In most applications, the LSM ensures
Roll compaction systems are essential in industrial, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical manufacturing, comprising three key components: (1) feed system, (2) roll compactor, and (3) mill. This process, also known as dry granulation, involves the compression of fine powders between two rotating rolls to eliminate air and form a compact. The properties of the compact, such as
PRINT THIS POST IPA designs and manufactures powder processing equipment known for strong performance & durability. Specifically, the IPA Mill requires minimal maintenance & is built for the most rugged applications. Although routine inspections are always advised, mills will occasionally require replacement parts to sustain optimal performance levels.
The IPA Mill, similar to the Fitzpatrick Fitzmill, is a type of comminutor used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, food processing, and chemical manufacturing. The primary function of the IPA Mill & Fitzmill is to reduce the size of particles through a size reduction process, making it a crucial tool for even particle distribution. Here
Slugging and roller compaction are both used in the industrial, pharmaceutical, & nutraceutical industry for granulation, but they differ in their processes and outcomes. While both slugging and roller compaction are methods of granulation in manufacturing, roller compaction is often favored for its efficiency, control over particle size, and suitability for continuous processing. The IPA
PRINT THIS POST Common Misconceptions An Impact mill creates more fines than the Comil. TRUTH: Impacting the particle reduced overall fines, as compared to the Comil “crushing” method. An Impact mill creates a wider particle size distribution compared to a Comil. TRUTH: An impact mill hits each particle with the same impact force, creating a
