High-Speed Rapid Mixer Granulator
A Rapid Mixer Granulator (RMG), also known as a High-Shear Mixer Granulator, is key pharmaceutical equipment used for wet granulation—a process that converts fine powders into dense, free-flowing granules.

Our granulators integrate mixing, wet-massing, and granulation into a single unit, improving efficiency and consistency in tablet and capsule production.
This equipment is specifically designed for the pharmaceutical, food, and chemical industries. It utilizes high-speed mixing and rotary cutting technology to achieve rapid material blending, wet granulation, and integrated drying. The three-dimensional mixing paddles ensure uniform dispersion without dead zones. Adjustable rotation speeds and cutting blades work together to produce uniform particle size distribution and high yield. The machines are operated via PLC with a touchscreen interface, and parameters can be programmed to meet GMP requirements. The fluid, dynamic design is optimized to reduce energy consumption, while corrosion-resistant stainless-steel construction ensures durability. Ideal for producing tablets, granules, and powders, this system helps improve both efficiency and product quality.
Designed for the pharmaceutical, food, and chemical industries and research institutions, this equipment integrates high-efficiency mixing and precise granulation. It features a modular, interchangeable bowl design compatible with a variety of sizes (e.g., 5 L-10 L) and supports diverse process requirements. Key advantages include fast switching, precise temperature control, uniform mixing, and low energy consumption. Fully GMP-compliant, it is suitable for wet granulation tests and small-batch production of tablets, granules, and herbal extracts. The intelligent and user-friendly operation makes it suitable for both laboratory and pilot-scale applications, facilitating efficient collaboration between R&D and flexible production.

Key Components of Rapid Mixer Granulators
Generates shear force for granule formation.
ImpellerControls impeller and chopper speeds, mixing time, and spray rate.
Control Panel (HMI/PLC-Based)Breaks apart lumps and enhances granule uniformity.
High-Speed Cutting BladeHow Does Rapid Mixer Granulator Work?
- Step 1. Loading: Dry powders are loaded into the RMG bowl.
- Step 2. Mixing: The impeller blends powders at low speed.
- Step 3. Binder Addition: Liquid binder is sprayed in during mixing.
- Step 4. Wet-Massing: High-speed impeller/chopper forms wet granules.
- Step 5. Discharge: Granules are unloaded for drying (e.g., into a fluid bed dryer).
FAQ
✔ Faster processing than low-shear granulators.
✔ Better content uniformity (homogeneous mixing).
✔ Controlled granule size & density.
✔ The closed system reduces contamination risks.
