Pulverizers in the Pharmaceutical Industry


Pulverizers are essential tools in the pharmaceutical industry as they reduce a drug's particle size to increase bioavailability, improve dosage accuracy and increase the overall surface area. Once a new drug is ready, researchers use various techniques — including milling and pulverizing — to identify the best way to transform the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) into a correct and effective dosage form. 


When determining an API's correct particle size, scientists consider several factors, including the drug's dissipation rates and bioavailability. Once developers know how fine individual particles need to be, pharmaceutical pulverizers must create consistent particle size distribution (PSD) to guarantee the accuracy of the drug. Milling and micronization equipment for the pharmaceutical industry that achieves narrow PSD ensures reliable and high-performing treatments.
