How To Prepare A Batch Manufacturing Record Template

A batch manufacturing record, or BMR, is a document containing the details of the manufacture of each product batch, across the whole manufacturing process. As there are many stages in the manufacturing process, each step must be recorded as proof, from obtaining the raw materials through to the final stage of packaging ready for sale. Any documents produced through the manufacturing process are then attached to the BMR as a record and proof of each stage.

What Should a BMR Contain?

The BMR should contain the batch record.

The first page should show the following:

      • Batch number
      • Composition
      • Size and weight
      • Storage conditions
      • Master formula of the batch
      • Start and completion date and expiry date
      • Manufacturer’s licence number

Health and safety: the BMR should contain safety guidelines for the chemist and others who may be interacting with the product. The guidelines should cover the process used during manufacturing process and how to handle and equipment used.

Equipment safety and maintenance: a checklist should be included that covers the list of equipment used and proper procedures to clean and maintain such equipment. The cleaning process should be inspected and followed by the quality assurance personnel.

Material bill number: a list that includes the raw material and quantities used along with their AR number. Weight should also be checked for quality assurance. If tablets are coated, then the materials used to make these coatings should also be included.

Manufacturing procedure: the whole process of manufacture of the product should be described in a clear and systematic manner, in straightforward and easy to understand language. This includes: processing times for milling, sifting, drying, compression, lubrication, coating and packing. A line clearance checklist should be included to be followed before any new process is started. Once the final stages of the manufacturing process are reached, the products should be checked again to ensure that all guidelines have been followed and product specifications have been followed. The results of these checks should also be included in the BMR.

Yields: the total yield for each process should be calculated to determine the efficiency of the process. The final yield should not be less than 99%.

Abbreviations: any abbreviations used should be clearly defines and shown in the BMR.

History of changes: and revisions and changes to the document must be recorded and indicated throughout the document.

The BMR is vital for your HACCP plan and GMP / ISO 22000 / FDA / MHRA compliance. Every time a press is carried out on your machine, it should be added to the record.

Multiple Station Tablet Rotary Press

压片机有两种类型:单冲压片机和旋转式压片机 。大多数高速压片机都采用旋转转盘的形式,可以容纳任意数量的冲模。转盘带着冲模转动,当冲模遇到凸轮时,向垂直方向移动,完成冲压过程。旋转式压片机生产的片剂被压缩成均匀的尺寸、形状和重量。所以,旋转式压片机是大规模生产的首选机器。而且它比单冲压片机生产的片剂数量多很多。

Why Do We Need to Batch Produce and use Batch Numbers?

A batch, according to the US FDA, means a specific quantity of a drug or other material that is intended to have uniform character and quality, within specified limits, and is produced according to a single manufacturing order during the same cycle of manufacture. A batch therefore is a specific amount of an API or other material that is processed in one or more ways so as to demonstrate homogeneity of the product.

Tablet Press Efficiency At Batch Sizes

Rotary Tablet Press Efficiency Per Batch Size

A big factor in choosing your Rotary Tablet Press will be the batch sizes you intend to produce with it.

While it might seem that the machine with the most output should finish every batch size in first, the table below demonstrates that is not the case.

The larger the machine the more parts there are to clean meaning the higher the labour costs.
