Understanding Ampere Load in RMG During Granulation – A Key to Process Optimization

Understanding Ampere Load in RMG During Granulation – A Key to Process Optimization

In pharmaceutical manufacturing, the Ampere load in the Rapid Mixer Granulator (RMG) is more than just a number—it’s a critical indicator of granulation efficiency and batch consistency.

During the granulation process, monitoring the ampere load helps track the torque exerted by the impeller and chopper, which directly correlates with the granule formation stage. A sharp rise in ampere load often signals the end point of wet massing, helping operators fine-tune binder addition and avoid over-wetting or under-processing.

During process validation,  we actively monitor ampere trends during each batch to:

  • Ensure process reproducibility
  • Maintain granule quality
  • Reduce cycle times
  • Prevent mechanical stress on the equipment

By integrating real-time ampere load monitoring with PAT tools, we're pushing toward smarter, data-driven manufacturing.

Let’s make granulation more predictable, one ampere at a time.

CORRECTIVE ACTIONS AND PREVENTIVE ACTIONS

CAPA in the Pharmaceutical Industry: A Crucial Quality Management System CAPA stands for Corrective and Preventive Action. In the pharmaceutical industry, it's a systematic process used to identify, investigate, and address deviations, discrepancies, or non-conformances in processes, products, or systems. The goal is to ensure product quality, safety, and compliance with regulatory requirements. Key Steps in a CAPA Process * Issue Identification: This involves recognizing problems, deviations, or non-conformances. These can arise from internal audits, customer complaints, regulatory inspections, or monitoring manufacturing processes. * Investigation: A thorough investigation is conducted to determine the root cause(s) of the issue. This may involve interviewing staff, reviewing documentation, or analyzing data. * Corrective Action: Once the root cause is identified, corrective actions are implemented to address the immediate problem. These actions might include rectifying the affec...

5 Why investigations

5 Why Investigation: A Tool for Root Cause Analysis The 5 Why investigation is a simple but powerful technique used to identify the root cause of a problem. It involves asking "why?" five times, each time delving deeper into the underlying reasons. This iterative process helps to uncover the fundamental issues that often lie beneath the surface of a problem. How Does it Work? * Identify the Problem: Clearly define the issue you want to investigate. * Ask "Why?": Ask "why" five times, each time focusing on the answer to the previous question. * Drill Down: Continue asking "why" until you reach a point where you can no longer provide a definitive answer or the response becomes circular. Example Problem: A machine is frequently breaking down. * Why is the machine breaking down? It's overheating. * Why is it overheating? The cooling system is clogged. * Why is the cooling system clogged? The coolant filter hasn't been replaced in a long time....
