  Tips for Choosing the Right Roll Compactor for Your Needs Roll compactors, also known as roller compactors, are machines used primarily in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and chemical industries for dry granulation . A roll compactor is a machine that compacts powder into a solid mass, known as a ribbon or flakes, which can then be milled into granules. This process is essential for creating uniform particle sizes and improving the flow properties of powders. Key Components and Working Principles of Roll Compactors Roll compactors use a vertical feed screw to feed powder into the machine, where it is compressed by two counter-rotating rollers. One roller is fixed, while the other moves to control the compaction force. A hydraulic system applies the necessary force, and a control system monitors and adjusts parameters like roll speed, roll force, and roll gap. Process Parameters of Roll Compactors Roll compactors use pre-compression force to feed the material into the ...
