FAQs

What is a Rapid Mixer Granulator (RMG)?
An RMG is a high-efficiency machine used for wet granulation in pharmaceutical manufacturing. It mixes powders rapidly and then granulates them by adding binder solutions, producing uniform granules ready for drying and compression.
What are the main components of an RMG?
Mixing bowl (stainless steel) Impeller for rapid mixing Chopper to break lumps and ensure uniform granulation Lid with safety interlocks Discharge valve Control panel (manual or PLC-based) Motor and gearbox assembly
What industries use Rapid Mixer Granulators?
Pharmaceuticals (tablet and capsule manufacturing) Nutraceuticals Food processing (instant mixes) Chemicals (powder mixing and granulation)
What are the advantages of using an RMG?
Faster and more uniform mixing Reduced batch time Better control over granule size and moisture content Improved compressibility and flow of granules Minimal operator intervention with automation options
What capacities are available?
Typical RMGs range from 5 liters to 200 liters or more, depending on batch size and process requirements. Custom sizes can be designed.
What materials are used for construction?
Contact parts: SS 316/316L stainless steel for corrosion resistance and hygiene Non-contact parts: SS 304 or painted mild steel Surface finishes are smooth, crevice-free, and easy to clean
Is the RMG cGMP compliant?
Yes. The design complies with cGMP standards, including: Sanitary design Easy cleaning (CIP options available) Safety interlocks and guards
How does the granulation process work?
Dry powders are loaded into the mixing bowl. The impeller mixes powders rapidly. Binder liquid is added gradually. The chopper breaks lumps and ensures uniform granule size. The batch is discharged for drying.
Can the RMG be automated?
Yes, PLC-based automation with touchscreen HMI is available for: Process control and monitoring Recipe management Safety interlocks Data logging and batch reports
What safety features are included?
Safety interlocked lid and discharge valve Emergency stop buttons Overload protection on motors Explosion-proof options available for hazardous materials
