Granulation is an agglomeration process or a particle size enlargement process. For proper granulation parameters like sieve thickness, pitch & aperture size are important in maintaining the proper granule size & reduce the generation of fines.

Direct Granulation eliminates many intermediate process steps & is a preferred method of granulation for some materials. For proper granulation parameters like sieve thickness, pitch & aperture size are important in maintaining the proper granule size & reduce the generation of fines.
