Skanska is piloting a Wirtgen Group electric compaction roller, one of just five pre-production models in North America. The global construction giant is piloting the electric compaction roller on the ...

The moniker aptly describes the machine: combination roller. Take a double drum vibratory compactor, swap out the rear drum for an axle carrying four tires, and a manufacturer can field a machine that ...

To illustrate the intelligent-compaction (IC) roller’s potential to increase production, Kevin Garcia—road and paving construction segment manager for Trimble Navigation—relates an experiment Trimble ...

The authors studied the behavior of anhydrous lactose and the combination of anhydrous lactose and the combination of anhydrous lactose with microcrystalline cellulose on a pilot-scale roller ...

There always exists more than one way to get a job done. With so many versatile tools at contractor's disposal, and more being brought to market every year, it can be daunting just to figure out the ...

There are significant benefits to dry granulation, in terms of cost-reduction and processing, and it can be used with sensitive materials. However, there is little indication as to which process ...

The exhibit will feature single drum rollers equipped with technologies such as TERRAMETER compaction measurement and VARIOCONTROL intelligent vibration control. A roller simulator will allow ...

Boasting an operating weight of 9,700 pounds, the CT5 comes in larger than Weiler’s other pneumatic compactor, the ...

When developing a tablet or capsule formulation, three widely used technologies are often considered to produce solid dosage forms: direct compression, wet granulation and dry granulation (including ...

Continuous roller compaction has been a well-established method in the pharmaceutical business for decades, and it is used for more than just moisture and temperature-sensitive products. Unlike ...
