A Rapid Mixer Granulator (RMG) is an essential equipment used in the pharmaceutical and food industries for high-speed dry and wet granulation of powders. It ensures uniform mixing and granule formation, improving the quality of tablets, capsules, and food products.

Technical Specifications of Rapid Mixer Granulator (RMG)

1. Construction Material

Stainless Steel (SS 316L for contact parts, SS 304 for non-contact parts) – ensures GMP & FDA compliance.

Mirror or Matte Finish – prevents contamination and allows easy cleaning.

Silicone or PTFE Gaskets – ensures airtight sealing, preventing cross-contamination.

2. Mixing & Granulation Chamber

Blending Capacity: 10L to 1200L, depending on model.

Batch Size: 30% to 70% of the total capacity for optimal mixing.

Jacketed Bowl (Optional): For temperature-controlled granulation.

3. Impeller & Chopper System

Impeller Speed: 50 – 300 RPM, adjustable via Variable Frequency Drive (VFD).

Chopper Speed: 1000 – 3000 RPM for efficient granule size reduction.

Counter-Rotating Design: Ensures uniform particle size distribution.

4. Granulation Process Control

Automated PLC-Based System (Optional): Ensures process repeatability and accuracy.

Load Cell Integration (Optional): For precise material weighing.

Temperature & Humidity Sensors: Monitors real-time process conditions.

5. Discharge & Material Transfer

Pneumatic or Gravity Discharge System: Ensures easy collection of granules.

Integrated Wet Mill (Optional): Allows direct transfer to drying systems.

6. Cleaning & Safety Features

CIP (Clean-In-Place) System (Optional): Ensures quick cleaning and prevents cross-contamination.

Explosion-Proof Design (Optional): For solvent-based applications.

Interlocked Safety Doors & Emergency Stop Button: Prevents accidental operation.

7. Power Requirement

Motor Power: 2 HP to 50 HP, based on capacity.

Power Supply: 220V/380V, 50/60Hz, available in different configurations.
