Improving Capacity And PSD In Benzocaine Milling

A large, global pharmaceutical company was looking to grind Benzocaine, an anesthetic that is typically used in a 5% - 20% solution and is applied topically to gums, skin and other areas, as needed. Benzocaine is also a component used in the manufacturing of oral lozenges to help relieve sore throats.

The Quadro Fine Grind F10 achieved and surpassed the capacity required by the manufacturer while maintaining a tight PSD bell curve. Higher and lower d90 values were achieved by varying impeller RPMs, feed rates, etc.

The Quadro Fine Grind F10 is a complete stand-alone process plant that affords benefits to the processor including savings through reduced downtime, minimal space requirements, rapid product changeover and enhanced process efficiency. Other advantages include quick disassembly for maintenance, tooling change and cleaning, low power consumption as compared to traditional mills, and low noise. The Model F10 promotes uniform grinding capabilities producing higher yields on-specification, and has a wide tooling selection to meet all grinding requirements.
