Choosing the right pharmaceutical mixer depends on material properties (e.g., powder fineness, liquid viscosity), required uniformity, and production scale. For dry powders, V-type or double-cone mixers work well; for viscous fluids, trough mixers fit better. GMP compliance and easy cleaning are also non-negotiable to avoid cross-contamination and ensure drug quality.
Pharmaceutical mixers must meet GMP standards in design: use corrosion-resistant, non-reactive materials (e.g., 316L stainless steel), have smooth inner surfaces to prevent material residue, and adopt seal structures that avoid lubricant leakage. They also need to support easy disassembly for cleaning validation, critical for maintaining drug safety and regulatory compliance.
