    High-Shear Wet Granulation Endpoint Detection: What Power Consumption Signals Actually Tell You

    The power or torque trace in high-shear wet granulation rises and plateaus as granules consolidate, but the signal is a supporting process indicator, not a direct particle size measurement, and its interpretation is bounded by batch size, impeller geometry, and formulation.
