Pharmaceutical Mixing Equipment

Find innovative pharmaceutical mixing equipment and connect directly with world-leading technology suppliers.

Mixers determine the quality of formulations. Mixing technologies used in the pharmaceutical industry to blend API and additives with uniform particle distribution. But many ingredients in pharmaceutical products are thermolabile and the friction caused by standard mixing technology is a threat to materials. Mixing equipment for the pharmaceuticals industry are designed to blend the powders gently without generating excess heat. Besides blending, pharmaceutical mixers perform a range of other processes including dissolving powders and solids, combining raw materials, preparing fine emulsions, particle-size reduction.

Mix hydrophilic compounds in conical screw technology for a homogeneous blend


Pharmaceutical powders have different physical properties, and combining them in a single formula is not straightforward. Dense hydrophobic compounds sink to the bottom of solutions, while those with smaller densities float to the surface.

A conical screw mixer creates a whirling motion that keeps the micronized particles in a homogeneous blend.

Make stable pharmaceutical emulsions with scraper mixing equipment

High-speed mixers for emulsions disperse non-soluble droplets for oil-in-water or water-in-oil preparations. This equipment category applies shear forces to distribute molecules evenly and avoid lumping or fisheye results. Besides the velocity of the rotor, the emulsification process also depends on the design of the mixing vessel. The agitators are configured to scrape the sides and bottom of the vessel to ensure uniform dispersion.
Use low-shear mixing technology for delicate pharmaceutical components

One of the main functions of mixing equipment for pharmaceuticals is to trigger chemical reactions between different ingredients. Shear mixers incorporate compounds together by subjecting the mixture to opposing forces.

But some components, like proteins or bioprocessing materials, are sensitive to high-shear stress. Specialized mixers apply low-shear techniques to enable the chemical reaction without compromising the key ingredients.
