ProXES Webinar
API PARTICLE SIZE-REDUCTION & CONTROL
In this webinar, you will gain practical insights into wet milling technologies for API particle size reduction and control. We will present three different wet milling principles and explain how they enable the reduction of API particle and crystal sizes to micron and submicron levels within a narrow distribution range.
The session focuses on how to evaluate the right technology for your application, how wet milling helps achieve the desired particle size while avoiding challenges such as low throughput, long milling times or material loss, and why robust process design is essential for reliable scalability from development to industrial production.
