Process of Tablet Manufacturing and Tablet Packaging (Excipient Manufacturers)


In the pharmaceutical industry, tablet manufacturing is a complex method of making the solid pharmaceutical dosage forms. Packaging follows with another round of complicated processes. Meanwhile, unit does packaging has emerged as the most favored form.


Tablet Manufacturing The most prominent feature in tablet manufacturing is to ensure the right quantity of active ingredients and excipients. The first step starts with the process of granulation, before pressing or compacting. Here, it is essential to maintain the correct amount of the contents.


Manufacturers use mainly two processes of granulation: wet granulation and dry granulation. Wet granulation, as the name suggests, use liquid binder to agglomerate the contents after properly weighing and mixing the contents. Again this type of granulation has two processes the lowshear and high-shear procedures.


On the other hand, dry granulation generates granules by compression of the powder. This process is effective when the contents are sensitive to heat and moisture. It is much simpler then wet granulation, thereby more cost effective as well.


Tablet Packaging This is a comprehensive process of packing and protecting the tablet for storage, distribution and sale. The primary tablet packaging is physical and barrier protection as well as for the security.


It follows three types: primary, secondary and tertiary packaging. The primary step is enclosing the tablet as in strip and blister packages. The next secondary step consists of arranging the blister packs in containers. Finally, the tertiary step comprises packages in large volume for shipping and transportation.
