How does the domestic solid preparation equipment industry realize "overtaking at a curve"?

      Pharmaceutical machinery is a kind of machinery widely used in the field of pharmaceutical equipment. According to the dosage forms of drugs, preparation machinery can be divided into four categories: solid, semi-solid, liquid and gas preparation machinery. Among them, the solid preparation has the advantages of high physical and chemical stability, low production cost, easy to take and carry, etc. it is widely used and has many varieties, and its output accounts for more than half of the pharmaceutical production.

  Industry experts said that in the solid preparation process, granulation technology is the key technology. The crushed materials form granular materials through pelletizing operation, with good mixing degree, fluidity and filling ability, which can improve the appearance of drugs, reduce caking, facilitate storage and transportation, control solubility, improve heat transfer and ensure the accurate dosage of drugs. At present, granulation technology can be divided into three types: wet granulation, boiling granulation and dry granulation.

  At present, wet granulation technology is mature and widely used. It has the advantages of good quality, beautiful appearance, strong wear resistance and good compression molding. Boiling granulation has the characteristics of reducing material loss and high production efficiency, and its application scope is gradually expanding. Dry granulation has been widely used in foreign countries, but at present, the technology of dry granulation in China is not as mature as that in foreign countries.

  Granulation is the core of solid preparation production. Industry insiders said that the equipment in the granulation process directly affects the quality of drugs, so pharmaceutical enterprises select a certain type of equipment, which will not be easily replaced in general, which also brings greater business opportunities and challenges to the manufacturers of granulation equipment.

  Good pharmaceutical equipment needs to be developed and built according to the type of drugs and manufacturing process design to meet the needs of drug production.

  Experts said that in the past, in China's solid preparation equipment market, the well-known solid preparation equipment produced by foreign companies such as Germany Glatt, Germany GEA, Italy IMA, etc. has occupied an obvious advantage, and is mainly based on the market. Most large domestic pharmaceutical enterprises use foreign equipment to meet the production needs of the industry. In contrast, the domestic solid preparation equipment technology is weak, and many domestic equipment manufacturing enterprises still mainly produce a few monomer equipment, single, lack of rate, and few enterprises have the ability to provide the whole line of equipment, so they are in a weak position in the market.

  The author has learned that Canaan technology is a well-known enterprise in the field of solid preparation equipment in China, and it is an example of "successful transformation after focusing on research technology". In the case of low technology content, similar products and single phenomenon of domestic solid preparation equipment products, Canaan science and technology takes the middle differentiated competition route through market segmentation, and takes the industry commanding point in time, avoiding the vicious competition brought by homogenization.

  Homogenization is a common phenomenon in various pharmaceutical equipment markets in China. Technology is the key to equipment transformation and upgrading. In the current era of intelligence, industrial big data, energy conservation and environmental protection, how to break the development bottleneck, go up with the trend, combine the industrial situation and the various conditions of policy changes, and open up the road of new products is a problem that the whole industry needs to think about.
