Hi all. My company is planning on manufacturing calamine lotion BP. Can anyone please recommend what kind of mixers are needed for this purpose and what is a suitable batch size for this product.
Calamine is a suspension preparation. Therefore you should have a high sheer mixer to mix the ingredients to get a homogeneous and stable suspension. Please ensure that the Calamine preparation is continuously stirred during the filling and packing operations to ensure that every bottle is filled with a homogeneous product. The solid materials (such as Zinc oxide, Zinc carbonate, Ferric oxide) added in the suspension should not settle down to form a cake at the bottom. The solid portion (cake) should get easily remixed to have a homogeneous suspension upon gently shaking the bottle.
The manufacturing method specifically includes the steps of: mixing and grinding, cleaning, liquid preparation mixing, and filling, thus obtaining a finished product. The product obtained by the method provided by this method has suspension liquid with good stability and lasting suspension properties, the microorganisms are effectively controlled, and no gravel feel is generated during the application of the lotion.
The batch size of Calamine depends upon the capacity of mixer, and other production equipment, and the sales requirement.
