Optimisation of the production processes is a complex goal for any industry, but even more so for the pharmaceutical industry. The search for effective solutions to improve the production process is undoubtedly not only aimed at increasing production volume and product quality, but also at ensuring compliance with the most rigorous manufacturing and inspection standards applied to the product and production processes such as quality, control and safety standards.
The success of many processes depends on the stage of mixing and agitation. Nevertheless, this is one of the most difficult processes to study due to the complexity of the intervening elements. Heretofore, the design of equipment depended on the experience of experts. To achieve the desired end product quality, two factors needed to be kept in mind: the degree of homogeneity and mixing time.
Separating particles by size, selection criteria, performance calculation, complex mixing equipment... selection criteria for mixing equipment are growing and becoming more specific.
Technological developments help us improve these processes. How? By constantly developing new applications that enable the assessment of mixing solutions by means of tests, thus giving rise to better results and minimising the risk of inaccurate calculations. New applications promote investigation and development of new automatically controlled systems with the aim to achieve optimal mixing solutions.
