Tablet Press for Pilot Scale Operation

01.07.2009 | Author: Wolfgang Geisler

GEA Pharma Systems has introduced the Courtoy™ MODUL™ P tablet press (P for pilot scale) to meet the demand for increased flexibility and product containment when working with potent compounds, especially with regards to small scale tablet presses. One of the main features of this machine is the ease of removing the exchangeable compression module (ECM) from which the product cannot escape. This eliminates the need to clean the inside and outside of the press and the room which results in increased operator safety and a reduction in cleaning time of up to 50%.

An important feature of the Modul P is that the basic machine remains the same; only the selection of the ECM is required. This modul is available for all tooling types and serves various applications for single and bilayer tabletting.

The Modul P compression technology allows for full control of the compression profile at pre and main compression. This enables the user to use any kind of tooling and still maintain the same dwell time as pre-set in the control system independent of the rotation speed of the turret allowing to replicate known tablet presses as well as an easy scale up and the ability to compress each individual tablet to the same hardness..
