Inspection for bone screws is a complicated process. Using a thread gauge measurement approach may enable a streamlined manufacturing process. Controlling the manufacture of bone and pedicle screws ...

At the heart of the cell are four compact single-screw extruders, which enable additive manufacturing based on standard granulates and are guided by industrial robots. Here, the spatial degrees of ...

The screw conveyor has an extensive history. Archimedes (ca. 212 BC) invented the first screw conveyor, and his design is still used today for irrigation and grain transfer. Screw conveyors became ...

Used for producing pasta, plastics, and more, extrusion is a widely used technique to combine and shape materials. Now, researchers report using twin-screw extrusion–where two solid reactants mix via ...

Pharmaceutical companies, contract research organizations and contract manufacturing organizations who produce oral solid dosage (OSD) forms can benefit from a new twin-screw granulator (TSG) designed ...

Formulating drugs to ensure therapeutic consistency, enable rapid development, and allow for cost-effective scale-up has become increasingly challenging. This is especially true in the context of ...

A presentation at the Leistritz Pharmaceutical-Nutraceutical Extrusion Seminar explained how simulation tools benefit the development process. Twin-screw extruders (TSE) are used in multiple ...
