Application of oil-free air compressors in the pharmaceutical industry:

1. Capsule pills. Compressed air will be used in every step, from mixing, hardening, granulation to drying, pressing, coating, and packaging. Compressed air is basically in contact with drugs and substances throughout the production process. If compressed air contains oil, water, or other impurities, drugs and substances will be contaminated. Even if oil-free air compressors are used, they must be equipped with aftertreatment machinery and equipment.

 

2. Fermentation. The fermentation equipment breathes according to sterile gas. If sterile gas is contaminated, the product will eventually be contaminated.

 

3.Instrument gas, all tools used throughout the manufacturing process are supplied with fuel from the air compressor. Since the gas in the tool comes into contact with the product, it must be pure.

 

4. Canning, canning, and packaging. There are various ways to package drugs, including blister packaging, drug bottles, light plastic containers, and cardboard boxes. An air compressor can be used to clean and remove moisture from the packaging.

 

5. Drying, Drying Medicines Removes all types of solvents or water from the product. Mechanical pumps are commonly used in this process to facilitate the volatilization of liquids from the solid state.

The application of oil-free air compressors in the pharmaceutical industry is mainly reflected in the above aspects. In specific work, the surface of manufactured products often encounters oil, mainly due to the use of lubricants in production line equipment or oil injected air compressors. Of course, if you use an oil free air compressor, this situation is not easy to occur.
