TABLET SECTION
TABLET:
Tablets are the solid unit dosage forms containing a medicament or mixture of medicament and
excipients compressed or moulded into solid cylindrical shape having either flat or convex
surface.
Types of Tablets:
➢ Coated tablets
➢ Uncoated tablets
➢ Chewable tablets
➢ Sublimgual tablets
➢ Lozenges
➢ Soluble Tablets
➢ Effervescent tablets
➢ Inserts
Tablet manufacturing Process:
[A] Wet granulation:

19. Introduction
The most widely used process of agglomeration in pharmaceutical industry is wet granulation.
Wet granulation process simply involves wet massing of the powder blend with a granulating
liquid, wet sizing and drying.
Important steps involved in the wet granulation:
i) Mixing of the drug(s) and excipients
ii) Preparation of binder solution
iii) Mixing of binder solution with powder mixture to form wet mass.
iv) Drying of moist granules
v) Mixing of screened granules with disintegrant, glidant, and lubricant.
Advantages
(a) permits mechanical handling of powders without loss of mix quality:
(b) improves the flow of powders by increasing particle size and sphericity:
(c) increases and improves the uniformity of powder density:
(d) improves cohesion during and after compaction:
(e) reduces air entrapment:
(f) reduces the level of dust and cross-contamination:
(g) allows for the addition of a liquid phase to powders (wet process only): and
(h) Makes hydrophobic surfaces hydrophilic.
Limitation of wet granulation:
i) The greatest disadvantage of wet granulation is its cost. It is an expensive process because of
labor, time, equipment, energy and space requirements.
ii) Loss of material during various stages of processing
iii) Stability may be major concern for moisture sensitive or thermo labile drugs
iv) Multiple processing steps add complexity and make validation and control difficult
v) An inherent limitation of wet granulation is that any incompatibility between formulation
components is aggravated.

20. [B] Dry granulation
Introduction
In dry granulation process the powder mixture is compressed without the use of heat and solvent.
It is the least desirable of all methods of granulation. The two basic procedures are to form a
compact of material by compression and then to mill the compact to obtain a granules. Two
methods are used for dry granulation. The more widely used method is slugging, where the
powder is recompressed and the resulting tablet or slug are milled to yield the granules. The
other method is to precompress the powder with pressure rolls using a machine such as
Chilosonator.
Roller compaction
The compaction of powder by means of pressure roll can also be accomplished by a machine
called chilsonator. Unlike tablet machine, the chilsonator turns out a compacted mass in a steady
continuous flow. The powder is fed down between the rollers from the hopper which contains a
spiral auger to feed the powder into the compaction zone. Like slugs, the aggregates are screened
or milled for production into granules.
Use: Use in the production of directly compressible excipients, the compaction of drugs and drug
formulations, the granulation of inorganic materials, the granulation of dry herbal material and
the production of immediate/sustained release formulations.
Processing steps:
Weighing of raw material-screening-mixing-compression to slugs-milling-mixing-compression
to finished tablets
Advantages:
The main advantages of dry granulation or slugging are that it uses less equipments and space. It
eliminates the need for binder solution, heavy mixing equipment and the costly and time
consuming drying step required for wet granulation. Slugging can be used for advantages in the
following situations:
i) For moisture sensitive material
ii) For heat sensitive material
iii) For improved disintegration since powder particles are not bonded together by a binder

21. Disadvantages:
i) It requires a specialized heavy duty tablet press to form slug
ii) It does not permit uniform colour distribution as can be
iii) Achieved with wet granulation where the dye can be incorporated into binder liquid.
iv) The process tends to create more dust than wet granulation, increasing the potential
contamination.
[D] The direct compression process
This method is used when a group of ingredients can be blended and placed in a tablet press to
make a tablet without any of the ingredients having to be changed. This is not very common
because many tablets have active pharmaceutical ingredients which will not allow for direct
compression due to their concentration or the excipients used in formulation are not conducive to
direct compression. Granulation is the process of collecting particles together by creating bonds
between them. There are several different methods of granulation. The most popular, which is
used by over 70% of formulation in tablet manufacture is wet granulation. Dry granulation is
another method used to form granules.
Advantages of Direct Compression:
1. Cost Effectiveness
The prime advantage of direct compression over wet granulation is economic since the direct
compression requires fewer unit operations. This means less equipment, lower power
consumption, less space, less time and less labor leading to reduced production cost of tablets.
2. Stability
Direct compression is more suitable for moisture and heat sensitive APIs, since it eliminates
wetting and drying steps and increases the stability of active ingredients by reducing detrimental
effects. Changes in dissolution profiles are less likely to occur in tablets made by direct
compression on storage than in those made from granulations5. This is extremely important
because the official compendium now requires dissolution specifications in most solid dosage
forms10.

22. 3. Faster Dissolution
Disintegration or dissolution is the rate limiting step in absorption in the case of tablets of poorly
soluble API prepared by wet granulation. The tablets prepared by direct compression disintegrate
into API particles instead of granules that directly come into contact with dissolution fluid and
exhibits comparatively faster dissolution.
4. Less wears & tears of punches
The high compaction pressure involved in the production of tablets by slugging or roller
compaction can be avoided by adopting direct compression. The chances of wear and tear of
punches and dies are less.
5. Simplified Validation
Materials are "in process" for a shorter period of time, resulting in less chance for contamination
or cross contamination, and making it easier to meet the requirement of current good
manufacturing practices. Due to fewer unit operations, the validation and documentation
requirements are reduced. Due to the absence of water in granulation, chance of microbial
growth is minimal in tablets prepared by direct compression.
Limitations of direct compression
1. Segregation
Direct compression is more prone to segregation due to the difference in density of the API and
excipients. The dry state of the material during mixing may induce static charge and lead to
segregation. This may lead to the problems like weight variation and content uniformity.
2. Cost
Directly compressible excipients are the speciality products produced by patented spray drying,
fluid bed drying, roller drying or co-crystallization Hence, the products are relatively costly than
the respective raw materials.
3. Low dilution potential
Most of the directly compressible materials can accommodate only 30-40 % of the poorly
compressible active ingredients like acetaminophen that means the weight of the final tablet to
deliver the 500 mg of acetaminophen would be more than 1300 mg. The large tablets may create
difficulty in swallowing.

23. 4. Re-workability
All the spray-dried directly compressible adjutants show poor rework ability since on preparation
of tablets the original spherical nature of the excipient particles is lost. API that has poor flow
properties and/or low bulk density is difficult to process by direct compression.
5. Lubricant sensitivity
Lubricants have a more adverse effect on the filler, which exhibit almost no fracture or shear on
compression (e.g. starch 1500). The softening effects as well as the hydrophobic effect of
alkaline stearates can be controlled by optimizing the length of blending time to as little as 2-5
min.
6. Variation in functionality
There is a lack of awareness in some situations that the excipient behave differently, depending
upon the vendor so much so that substitution from one source to that of another is not possible.
Hence, there is a need for greater quality control in purchasing of raw material to assure batch
uniformity.

30. RAW MATERIAL STORAGE
Raw material storage is a sector of the manufacturing business that is essential to continuous
production operations. Everything from the production of steel parts for cars and trucks to silicon
for electronic components, including computers, comes originally from raw materials, and the
proper storage of these materials involves controlled temperature, humidity, and more.
Even in production lines for foodstuffs, ingredients must be stored in optimum conditions for
quality control purposes. Most pre-packaged food sold at the grocery store is a product of the
combining of many ingredients, all of which must be kept a certain way to maintain the quality
and freshness of these ingredients for when they are ready to be used.
Food storage sometimes involves keeping ingredients in refrigerated rooms for weeks at a time,
and the ingredients must then be thawed, either naturally or by machine, when they are ready to
go into production.
Raw material storage is something that companies have carefully engineered according to their
own unique storage needs to be able to produce a consistent product. Auto parts manufacturing
companies and auto repair shops keep a steady stock and rotation of materials in their facilities.
Spare parts storage is essential to the auto repair business, letting mechanics fix common
problems on cars and trucks without waiting days or weeks for parts to arrive from the
manufacturer. Automobile manufacturers also implement spare parts storage so they have parts
on hand that have already been made for current and recent models, ensuring that they can meet
the demand for parts from individuals, repair shops, and dealerships.
PREPARED AND STORAGE-
Pharmaceutical products should be packed in a well closed container that protects
the contents from contamination by extraneous solids, liquids or vapors and the
loss of the products under normal conditions of handling and storage. The following factors to
be taken in consideration for proper storage:
1. Sanitation
2. Temperature
3. Light
4. Moisture
5. Ventilation

31. 6. Segregation
Different pharmaceutical product storage temperature on the basis of stability studies as given
below:
Freezer: A place in which the temperature is maintained thermostatically between -25ºC and
10ºC (-13 ºF and -14 ºF).
Cold: Any temperature not exceeding 8ºC (46 ºF). A refrigerator is a cold.
Cool: Any temperature between 8 ºC and 15 ºC. Any pharmaceutical products for which
storage in a cool place directed may, alternatively, be stored in a refrigerator,
unless otherwise specified in the individual monograph.
Good storage practice (GSP) is applicable in all circumstances where
pharmaceutical products are stored through the distribution processes. For additional guidelines
relating the general principles of storage of pharmaceutical products, refer to the WHO
guidelines on good storage practices.
Storage condition on label
Storage conditions for pharmaceutical products and materials should be in compliance with the
labelling, which is based on the results of stability testing Storage conditions should be defined
and described on the label of the product. All drugs should be stored according to the conditions
described on the label. When specified on the label, controls for humidity, light, etc., should be
in place. Storage areas should be designed or adapted to ensure good storage conditions. The
label should specify any special storage conditions required for the product.
Storage of Tablet
Storage on label:
Store in a cool, protected from light and moisture.
Store in a cool and dark place, protected from light and moisture.
Keep in a dry dark place.
Store in cool dry and dark place.
Storage of Capsule

32. Store in a cool and dry place, protected from light.

33. Store in a cool place, protected from direct sunlight.
PACKAGING DEPARTMENT
Industrial packaging is an important part of the production process, allowing industrial grade
goods and products to be protected while they’re shipped and transported.It comes in a variety
of shapes and sizes, with various materials to choose between. Each product has its own
requirements when it comes to packaging, so it’s important to know which type of industrial
packaging works best in any given situation.
Industrial packaging is designed to both store and protect industrial goods. pIt is often purpose-
built or specifically tailored to suit particular products that are used on a large, industrial
scale. This can be anything from chemicals to concrete, so there is a broad range of industrial
packaging to suit the varied demands.
Industrial packaging needs to be robust and heavy-duty. It should make transportation and
storage easier, and it must be able to protect contents from bumps, dents, or spillage during
transit.
It is also required to label and track products, and in some cases to advertise them too. It often
comes with instructions or warnings on the outside, relating to the product stored within.
Materials used in industrial packaging
Industrial packaging comes in an array of shapes and sizes, but there are a few key materials
commonly found in their designs.
Steel
Industrial packaging often needs to be strong, hardwearing, resilient and reusable. Steel fits all of
those requirements, which is why it’s a great material for industrial transportation and
storage. You most commonly find steel in the form of steel drums, which are used to transport
liquids and semi-solids such as foodstuffs or oils. Steel frames are also used to provide extra
layers of protection for industrial products.
Plastic
Industrial packaging often comes in the form of plastic, which is sturdy, reliable and reusable.
Plastic drums are used to transport and store an array of liquids and foodstuffs, but they are also
used to transport corrosive and hazardous chemicals (and hazardous waste). It is cheap
to manufacture and can be easily moulded into a versatile range of shapes and sizes to fit many
industrial needs.
Cardboard
Cardboard is one of the most commonly used materials found in industrial packaging. The most
obvious use for cardboard is cardboard boxes. They are affordable, recyclable and come in a
huge variety of sizes. Cardboard boxes are surprisingly resilient. If you have heavy items in
need of protection, double-walled cardboard boxes provide a greater level of security.

34. Importance of industrial packaging
Industrial packaging is important for a variety of reasons. As mentioned above, it helps to protect
products while they are being stored in warehouses and while they are being shipped to their
destinations.
In many cases, industrial packaging allows products to be stored and transported safely,
especially if they’re potentially dangerous to human health (chemicals or hazardous substances,
for instance).
Even just for health and safety reasons, industrial packaging is indispensable. But it also helps to
label products and organise large amounts of the same product.
