Piezo-Kinetics Announces Major Powder Manufacturing Expansion
Piezo-Kinetics Inc., a leading manufacturer of small and specialty piezoelectric ceramic elements and assemblies, has announced a major expansion of its powder processing and precious metal manufacturing at the Bellefonte, Pa. plant, enabling the company to significantly reduce lead times and improve productivity.
Powder Blending Equipment for Manufacturing
Dry powder blending is simplified with bin blending that reduces blend times and requires no between batch cleanup. Since products contact only the bin, the benefits of total product containment, immediate product changeover and zero blender cleaning are realized. Bin blending also eliminates airborne and cross-contamination, product segregation and spillage risks.
Optimizing Your Manufacturing Process Using Comprehensive Powder Characterization
Understanding the range of powder behavior characteristics through measurement of the most appropriate properties is essential for efficient processing and consistently high-quality finished products.
Manufacturing Vs. R&D: The Problem Is Powder Flowability
Tablet production depends on steady flow of powder from a feed hopper to the tablet machine. Hang ups are unwelcome because they interrupt production and manufacturing must execute a rigorous restart procedure. The blame, whether deserved or not, falls on R&D because they have responsibility for evaluating formulations for proper scale up and smooth processability. By Bob G. McGregor, General Manager, Brookfield Engineering
Customization Containment Project for Dr. Reddy's from Start to Finish
We came up with containment solutions to all powder manufacturing operations, which was very a complicated project, but we managed to maintain containment from start to finish in their facility and now they have a good facility to use.
Powder Characterization For Modern Manufacturing
In this series, I’ve been looking at traditional powder testing techniques, such as tapped density methods and shear analysis, to see how they fit with today’s powder processing needs. By Tim Freeman, Freeman Technology
Powder Characterization For Modern Manufacturing
In this series, I’ve been looking at traditional powder testing techniques, such as tapped density methods and shear analysis, to see how they fit with today’s powder processing needs. Greater efficiency is the goal now dominating pretty much every area of production, so I really do feel it’s appropriate to question whether we have the right powder characterization tools for modern applications.

Custom Powder Systems - Custom Manufacturing Solutions and Happy Employees
Everyone is very willing to support each other. It's a tight-knit bunch. Everyone knows everyone, and everyone has an appreciation for their roles in terms of the collective good. One of the nice things about a smaller company is they're not as compartmentalized. Everyone understands they have a role in a bigger picture.
Custom Powder Systems: System Maintenance
Custom Powder Systems should be your people doing your maintenance on all types of material handling equipment. We're the specialists in that industry. At Custom Powder Systems, we feel the key importance of a good maintenance program is for us to come in and do the preventative maintenance so that you can plan your shutdowns then, so that in the middle of your production shift, you don't have a part that's been worn or neglected that takes you out of the time you can't plan for.
A Q&A: Manufacturing Dry Powder Inhaled Formulations By Spray Drying
Kimberly Shepard, Ph.D., principal engineer in R&D, adresses the challenges associated with spray-drying late-stage lung cancer treatments, including proteins, peptides, and mAbs.

Powder Testing Tools For A New Manufacturing Model
In this new series of editorials I'm going to ask the question “How well does the powder testing toolkit used by the pharmaceutical industry meet its current needs?” In seeking answers, I'm going to start by looking at what the industry asks of its powder characterization techniques, what information it requires, and why. Taking challenges that the pharmaceutical industry faces into account helps to set a specification against which to judge different instrumentation and techniques. By Tim Freeman, Freeman Technology
Powder Filling Application Animation
AseptiSafe aseptic transfer Split Butterfly Valves (SBV) provide improved sterility assurance when transferring bulk powders such as API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients) from dispensing and processing steps to the filling line. This animation shows how the AseptiSafe system can help maintain product integrity under positive pressure closed conditions, whilst product containers are being stored between prior processing/dispensing steps and the filling process.

Lean Manufacturing In Powder Processing — A Paradigm Shift
The concept of Lean Manufacturing has been growing in popularity in the manufacturing world for the past several years. Driven by several factors, including a slowing U.S. economy, rising costs of input materials, an increase in rationalization of production facilities, and the influx of inexpensive products from overseas, manufacturers are embracing the principles of Lean Thinking to solidify their competitiveness and improve market share.
