Over 75 percent of all pharmaceutical products are in the solid dosage form and particulates are involved in almost every stage of the manufacturing process. The efficient handling and processing of these particulates is critical to the profitable manufacture of pharmaceutical products. Common problem areas include poor mixing, uneven coating, non-uniform die filling, and pill breakage.

Powered by industry-leading Discrete Element Method (DEM) technology, Altair EDEM software enables pharma companies to accurately simulate the behavior of powders and other granular materials including APIs, providing key information on processes otherwise difficult or sometimes impossible to visualize or measure, thereby minimizing or eliminating such problems.

 

During this 45-webinar, you will learn:

Leading pharmaceutical companies around the globe have been using EDEM to optimize a range of processes including powder mixing, tablet coating, die filling, granulation, milling, and more. Benefits include:

  • Increase process efficiency and capability
  • Develop virtual prototypes of process equipment
  • Reduce costs and dependence on physical prototyping and testing
  • Drive product and process innovation
  • Improve product quality
  • Get products to market quicker
