When it comes to producing very fine particle dispersions in cosmetics, electronic coatings, ceramic, inks, pharmaceuticals, and more, you can always use a three roll mill. Well, only a skilled operator can use the machine to created consistent results, and you can keep the machine running safely. Before you can start using the machine, it is important to test the machine to understand the perfect gap settings for a certain product to optimize the throughput as well as dispersion quality.
Antibiotic ointment a perfect example of three roll mill’s application
A well-known pharmaceutical company who is specialized in making semi-solid as well as liquid product, use a three-roll mill to produce quality antibiotic ointment creams. Speaking about the working process, the production process begins with heating the petrolatum base at around 180-degree F, and then they combine around five different ingredients utilizing a saw-tooth disperser blade. They use a separate tank to melt a triglyceride base at around 110-degree F. Then, another active ingredient is combined with the material.
Then, the processed material is allowed to cool and mixed using a triglyceride batch. Even though the material is combined through a high-speed mixing process, the material can have visible particles and flecks. But this is not a major problem at all. Two to three passes through an three roll mill create a speck-free and visible smooth cream. During the process, the temperature of the product is kept at a particular level by applying cooling water through the rolls.
Enjoy narrow particle distribution
Using the machine, particle sizes can be lowered, and agglomerates are properly dispersed. Thanks to the sufficient crushing force of the rollers. Besides, they are designed to produce high shearing force by the rollers that work at different speeds. By configuring the gap width, you can control the particle size without any issue. For instance, dissolvers and bead mills can produce a better and wider distribution of the particle. So, if you want to produce good-quality and super-fine ointments or creams, then using an three roll mill can be a perfect idea.
Enjoy maximum benefits with a good quality machine
Are you looking for a robust three roll mill to produce good quality ointment and to increase the production capacity of your manufacturing unit? Don’t worry at all and get the three-roll mill developed by Franli. The machine can be used in different applications, for example, solar pasty, cosmetics, ointment, electronic pastes, and more. Equipped with the latest technology and made of high-quality material, the mill can produce narrow particle size and hyper-precise distribution of the material. The best thing about the machines is the users can easily control the rollers by configuring the SIEMENS PLC system. For more details, you can visit the official site of Franli.
