Cream Dosing Equipment

Every minute, your skin loses between 30,000 and 40,000 dead skin cells. This means losing millions of cells every day, which makes your skin look less glowing. Being a moisturizing agent, body lotion has the power to hydrate your skin and  give the glow back to it. Production involves water and oil phases, which you then mix with an emulsifier and blend until homogeneous. Preservatives are essential for any solution containing water for the prevention of microbial growth.

Body lotion

Did you know that in the 30s, cosmetic creams that contained radioactive material were booming on the market because they promised to reduce wrinkles? Thank God that's no longer the case. To make a cosmetic cream today, you need to create a stable mixture of oil and water and add an emulsifier to join these otherwise immiscible substances.

Cosmetic creams

A cosmetic foundation comes in a powder, cream, or liquid form. And did you know that the liquid form came about because women in the 30s and 40s didn't want to wear stockings? So to cover up their legs, they turned to leg makeup, which played an essential role in our liquid foundation formula. The foundation making process involves balancing the oil and water phase interactions during the formulation stage, mixing ingredients, and packaging using a liquid foundation filling machine.

Cosmetic foundation

You can make emulsions by combining two immiscible liquids (oil and water, for example) in a suspension through the use of force. The use of emulsifiers is necessary to keep this mixture stable and permanent.

Emulsions

The easiest and most commonly used method of making gels is mixing gelling agents with water to form a weakly cohesive internal structure. The gel production process is pretty linear and straightforward, from mixing hydrocolloids and water to labeling and sealing containers.

Gels

After shaving, anti-aging, with organic ingredients, for the feet... Lotions are many. They compose the skincare world, which has been growing in recent years. More consumers look for the benefits of products that promise to enhance well-being and self-care. Whether you want to help prevent wrinkles, provide vitamins or just hydrate your consumers’ skin, get your formula and select lotion making equipment to get started.

Lotion

The most significant decision when making ointments is likely to be the choice between automatic or semi-automatic processes for it. This impacts on individual phases of the ointment cream manufacturing process - the water phase and oil phase.

Ointment

Cosmetic serums are a very light formulation with a high density of active ingredients dispersed in oil, water, or gel. This makes serums well suited to the delivery of vitamins, antioxidants, and anti-aging ingredients, but provide less moisturization and protection. Serum production is mainly divided into stages related to optimal mixing and preventing degradation of the active ingredients.

Serums

Sunscreen is an emulsion which can be either oil-in-water or water-in-oil. To create it, you must prepare an oil phase and a water phase separately, then mix and heat them. Homogenization is a key process to guarantee that the product will have the right consistency. When manufacturing sunscreen, give special attention to protection against UV filters.

Sunscreen

Neige de lait in French or neve di latte in Italian, as referred to in very old texts and both meaning milk snow, has been used in recipes since the 15th century. Withstanding the test of time, whipped cream is still one of the most beloved dessert toppings. What starts with milk ends as a silky delicacy with the help of whipped cream equipment and specified manufacturing processes.

It's been estimated that we spend an average of 3,000 hours brushing our teeth. In fact, in our daily routine, toothpaste is something we use at least twice a day. Making toothpaste is a very straightforward process; just mix together water, abrasives, humectants, thickening and foaming agents, sweeteners, and flavors in the right amounts until you get a paste. Once you have added the colors, you can fill a tube with your colorful toothpaste and seal it before being shipped to stores.

A tube is a collapsible package, made of plastic or metal, used for packaging highly viscous liquids or pastes. Considerations for choosing a suitable tube filling system include the nature and viscosity of the product to be filled, the tube material, capping requirements, and the desired filling speed and volume. Tube fillers are used in the food industry for the packaging of food pastes; in the chemical industry for packaging caulk, glues, and sealants. In the cosmetics industry, tube fillers are used for the packaging of gels and creams and in the pharmaceutical industry for the packaging of toothpaste and ointments.

Dosing equipment

Dosing systems are a line of hoppers, feeders, filling machines, and checkweighers that operate in sync to dispense materials accurately. Dosing is an essential feature of the packaging process, whether you’re filling shampoo bottles or tea bags. But dosing equipment is critical for formulations, too, particularly in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Imprecise dosing may cause quality degradation in the best-case scenario. In the worst scenario, it creates serious health risks.

Due to their potential hazardous nature, chemicals are classified for proper identification and safety during production. Chemical classification depends on their properties, structures and functions. In the chemical industry, you can regard them as basic chemicals such as acids, chemical products to produce plastic materials and finished chemicals for use in cosmetology. As a manufacturer or engineer, you want to know their reactivity when using chemical processing equipment.

Chemicals

According to a legend, Cleopatra soaked her sails in her perfume so that Mark Antony could smell her ships before they arrived. This is to say that, from soaps and shampoos to perfumes, conditioners and pomades, cosmetics have always been highly valued and used for their properties of aesthetic enhancement. Cosmetics are a broad class of topical agents applied for various purposes such as cleansing, protecting, beautifying, or otherwise altering your appearance. As a result, a wide array of processing equipment is used in the cosmetics industry.

Cosmetics

The topical route is a convenient route for the self-administration of drugs. But turning a pharmaceutical formulation into an easy-to-use cream involves specialized cream manufacturing equipment. Topical dosage forms are essentially an emulsion of oil and water.  But the ratios can be changed to process it into lotions, ointments, and gels.

Cream

Pharmaceutical developments walk side by side with health advances to provide new medicines, treatments, and therapies that have increased life quality and extended life expectancy by years. Pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment helps deliver products to a great deal of the population, but there’s a significant share that doesn’t benefit from them yet. Over 2 billion people cannot get the medicines they need, according to the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, and local production might be a way to provide for these people.

When looking for capping equipment, it is crucial to know first which type of capper your product requires. Do you want screw caps, twist-off caps, hand pumps, or push-pull caps on your bottle or container? If you require different cap types for format changeover times can be time-consuming. The bottle cap seals the top opening of a bottle to guard the product against leakage and spoilage and sterility and filling requirements depend on the nature of your product.

Capping

Filling lines are used extensively in all industries, such as food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and cosmetics, to accurately package different products into a container suitable for that product. Although the filling process is at the very end of the production line, it is no less important than the earlier steps. Last but not least, the idiom that dates back to 1382 when John Wyclif wrote the firste the laste, and the laste the firste, indicates just that the last things on a list are just as valuable as the previous ones. In this case, this idiom fits perfectly.

Filling

A loading system feeds your continuous or batch processing machine with the specified material or item in line with the flow of production. Loaders transfer the articles from one stage of preparation to the next with uniformity and accuracy.

<h3>Raise the API content to 99%</h3>
Pharmaceutical creams are mostly used to treat skin issues such as rashes, stings, or fungal infections. Unlike <a href="https://making.com/cosmetic-creams" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cosmetic creams</a>, medicated creams penetrate the epidermis and target cells in the lower layers of the skin.

Pharmaceutical creams must contain 99% pure active ingredients. However, APIs are applied in lower concentrations than in other formulations like tablets.

The preparation of oil and water phases involves different cream manufacturing equipment. Oils are extracted and purified from biological materials using <a href="https://making.com/technologies/extraction" target="_blank" rel="noopener">extraction technology</a>. Water is filtered from contaminants and distilled.

The two come together in specialized mixing systems that suspend the liquids into an emulsion. A finer droplet renders a more stable emulsion and a smoother cream consistency.

Mix the water and oil phases to produce a stable emulsion

Find dispersing technology

The oil phase can be either a mineral oil or a silicone, enriched with emollients and lubricants. If the additives are in wax form, heating equipment is used to melt them into the oil base.

Excipients such as binders, thickeners, and stabilizers help the two phases to emulsify. But these agents are dispersed into the water phase. Active ingredients are dispersed into both phases depending on their reactive properties.

Disperse the drugs and additives in the liquids before emulsification

Use high-shear mixing equipment to prevent lumps

Not all mixing technologies are suitable for manufacturing pharmaceutical creams. The mechanism needs to incorporate the drugs (typically in powder form) into the emulsion droplets. Failing to combine the materials homogeneously causes agglomerate in the formulation down the line.

<a href="https://making.com/technologies/high-shear-mixers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">High-shear mixers</a> disperse the API and excipients uniformly in the oil and water phases. Similarly, the high rate of agitation lowers the interfacial tension between the phases, producing a more stable emulsion.

Excipients are used to facilitate drug delivery. But, at the same time, molecules can coalesce into a microstructure forming large crystals.

Lubricants keep the fluidity of the formulation. But changing temperatures alter their behavior, and creams may feel greasy in warmer environments. Viscosity modifiers reduce the change of stickiness in lubricants to keep a consistent structure.

Add viscosity modifiers to retain a consistent texture in creams

<h2>How to pack your creams and ointments</h2>
When filling topical formulations it is essential to get the amount of product in various consistencies per container just right and to be able to accommodate various container shapes and sizes. There are many factors that influence the decision for choosing a container to fill in topical dosage forms. Some of these factors are materials and visual appearance while others are specific to the usage of the product filled. The most common containers for filling creams are tubes and glass or plastic jars.

Tubes have narrow openings that protect the creams against contamination and preserve the product's shelf life. Tubes are mostly made from low or high-density polyethylene and aluminum. They have various top shapes that can be applied. For example, triangular toppers allow to push out as much product as needed with precision. Push tops are also common for creams that need controlled amounts produced with each pump. Tubes can be of different diameters ranging from 16mm to 50mm and the capacity ranging from 5ml to 240ml. A filling machine, therefore, becomes a critical piece of equipment for any cream manufacturing plant.

Do you have a sweet tooth, or are you more into a warm loaf of bread for a savory lunch? The bakery shop window displays something for everyone, from baguettes over croissants to muffins. Bakery products are a wide range of baked goods prepared from flour or meal derived from grains. These undergo mixing, fermentation, and baking processes with the help of bakery processing equipment such as a series of low- and high-speed mixers, fermentation tanks, and baking chambers.

Milk can be consumed as a stand-alone product (whole, low-fat or skim) or can be the starting point for food industry products such as cheese, butter, yogurt, condensed milk, and ice cream. In order to process milk and other dairy products, you need specialized dairy production equipment which then encapsulates different processes such as pasteurization, homogenization, and fermentation.

Our food chain starts in the soil, growing crops and livestock. But between the fields and the stores, there is a line of industrial food processing equipment. Processes may be as minimalistic as cleaning fruit and as complex as homogenizing milk alternatives made from pressed legumes.
