Webinar: How Extrusion Conditions Influence the Properties of Starch Compounds
Mar 01, 2017 – Mar 01, 2017
You can create better starch compounds by controlling extrusion conditions for food products. This webinar explains how to improve the quality of your final food product by managing the influence of twin-screw extrusion on various product properties. Background: Starch is a base material for many food products: snacks, cereals, pet food, etc. Yet the gelation process is complex and shaped by many different variables. Processing starch with twin-screw extrusion offers a great flexibility in process design and the opportunity to positively influence products derived from it. Benefits: Learn how to manipulate processing variables to design a starch matrix that delivers the texture, stability and processability you want. The webinar covers how to choose extruder parameters such as screw set-up, processing temperature and liquid-to-solid ratio to create the desired final food properties. Then see how oscillatory rheometry can deliver the precise analysis needed to ensure a high-quality end product. Complete the form to view this webinar today! |

Food Rheology Webinar – Before you press ‘start’
Food Rheology – What to do before you press ‘start’Mouthfeel… Spreadability… Appearance… Stability for shelf-life… Testing the structure of a food is essential to ensure the final product appeals to consumers. The results need to be reliable and food samples are sensitive. Key rheological results can be thrown off by some easy slip-ups in sample handling or the test method itself. This live webinar reviews the critical steps before pressing ‘start’ on your rheometer:

Become a wizard at Pharma Hot Melt Extrusion / Drug Formulation and Manufacturing
Solutions for scale-up and continuous processingAddressing challenges in pharmaceuticals where API solubility and processing stability, taste-masking, enterics, and specialized dosage forms are critical projects, Thermo Scientific™ extruders and related analytical instrumentation provide the shortest path from feasibility studies to production in drug formulation and manufacturing. Compounding and extrusion technologies have been used in manufacturing for centuries and have become a valuable tool in creating novel drug formulations, and in the transition from inefficient batch processing to continuous manufacturing. creating novel drug formulations, and in the transition from inefficient batch processing to continuous manufacturing. |
Featured drug formulation and manufacturing technologiesHot Melt ExtrusionMelt extrusion has been used in the plastics and polymers industry for decades. Advances in formulation enable poorly soluble drug molecules to be incorporated into solid dispersions using a polymeric carrier. Hot melt extrusion is an alternative to wet agglomeration, a good carrier for sustained release forms and taste-masked dosages. Extrusion processes can also create films for oral strips or dermal patches in a solvent-free process. According to the US FDA, the continuous manufacturing process reduces human errors caused by starts and stops during the batch process. Continuous granulation is also safer and more reliable. In a continuous process, ingredients are fed and mixtures sent to downstream production. Extruders have been used in wet granulation processes for many years; twin-screw extruders are now playing a central role in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Rheometry and spectroscopy play important roles in developing and implementing extruder-centered drug formulations. The use of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy for the analysis of active ingredients in pharmaceutical formulations is well known. The technique is nondestructive, has excellent signal-to-noise ratios and can use fiber optics to take sampling to the process. NIR spectroscopy is an ideal choice to monitor the output of a hot melt extruder. Complementary to NIR in bulk and in-line sampling, Raman spectroscopy adds microscopic imaging to analyze tablet homogeneity and the analysis of co-extrusions. Hot Melt Extrusion: A Continuous Process for Pharmaceutical ProductionPharmaceutical manufacturers are using conical and twin-screw extruders to mix drug molecules with bioactive polymers in situations where drug ingredients are poorly soluble or unstable during processing. Extruders are also useful in preparing enteric dosages, sustained release dosages, in taste-masking, and to create forms such as films. |
Herzan MicroDamp Series Vibration Isolators
OVERVIEW
The MicroDamp Series vibration isolators are an affordable and effective solution, optimized to any instrument’s weight and dimension profile. Utilizing a polished aluminum housing and highly damped composite material, the MicroDamp Series provides a cost-effective solution for instruments experiencing broad frequency vibration noise within their lab environment.

APPLICATIONS
|
SELECTION GUIDE
The MicroDamp series often utilizes three to four isolators within a vibration isolation platform, depending on the supported instrument’s dimension profile and overall weight distribution. When paired with a damped top plate (i.e. granite, aluminum, breadboard, etc.), the MicroDamp Series becomes a complete solution for instruments requiring a stable and reliable vibration isolation platform.
To determine the correct isolator configuration for your instrument, review the MicroDamp models below and locate the model able to sufficiently support the weight of your instrument.
Please note: the values listed below are for individual isolators only. To correctly select the relevant model for your instrument, multiply the minimum/maximum load capacities by three to determine the total minimum/maximum load capacities. Your instrument must fall within this range to receive optimal vibration isolation performance. If your instrument’s weight does not fall within this range, multiply the minimum/maximum load capacities by a larger number (>3) until your instrument falls within range.
HELPFUL TIP
For further instruction on the correct configuration for your instrument, contact a Herzan representative and share your instrument’s weight, dimensions, and approximate load distribution. Once that information has been received, a tailored recommendation will be made to ensure your instrument receives maximum vibration isolation performance from a MicroDamp Series platform.
