For non-pharma applications, the PERFORMA P tablet press has been upgraded for high wear resistance to cope with abrasive powders.
The exchangeable turret of the PERFORMA consists of three separate parts: the upper punch guide, the EDD and the lower punch guide. The same patent-pending arm can be used to either swing the entire turret out of the machine or remove just the top punch guide — clearing the way for the tablet press operator to lift the light-weight die disc out of the machine.
Benefits
Using two EDDs, maximum machine output can be achieved with minimum capital investment. This is a far more economical solution than duplicating the entire turret.
The PERFORMA P can be supplied with a set of parts for bilayer production. The kit is a cost-effective solution for small-to-medium scale bilayer manufacturing needs. It’s easy to install and further enhances the versatility of the PERFORMA P tablet press. Outstanding features of the PERFORMA P in bilayer configuration include the following.
The PERFORMA P set up for single-layer production is available for D, B BB, BBS and A tooling:

The R233 is designed for single-layer / double-output or double-layer / single-output 24/7 tablet production with minimum maintenance to produce large volumes of tablets (such as salt tablets, catalysts, coffee pods, etc.), suitable for the processing of abrasive and corrosive powders.
The R55 is a robust, exceptionally versatile industrial rotary press for single-layer tablet and component production. From nuclear fuel pellets, hard metals and batteries to confectionery.
The R253 is designed for for single-layer/double-output or double-layer/single-output 24/7 tablet production with minimum maintenance to produce large volumes of tablets (such as detergents, catalysts, automotive parts, batteries, etc.). This machine can be used to produce tablets with one or multiple vertical holes.
Der Klimawandel und das Wachstum der Weltbevölkerung setzen die energieintensive Lebensmittelindustrie zunehmend unter Druck: Sie muss mehr Menschen versorgen, ohne die Umwelt weiter zu belasten. George Shepherd, Global Technical Sustainability Manager bei GEA, zeigt, wie Ingenieurskunst Lebensmittelproduktion zugleich nachhaltiger und effizienter macht.
Die Weltbevölkerung wächst und mit ihr die Nachfrage nach Milch. Milchprodukte sind ein wesentlicher Bestandteil vieler globaler Ernährungsgewohnheiten. Ihre Produktion kann jedoch ressourcenintensiv sein und Auswirkungen auf die Umwelt haben. Christian Müller, Senior Director Sustainability Farm Technologies bei GEA, erläutert, wie technologische Innovationen von GEA die Milchproduktion effizienter, rentabler und nachhaltiger machen.
Ob fest oder flüssig: Jedes sichere Lebensmittel ist ein Sieg im Kampf gegen unsichtbare mikrobielle Bedrohungen. Die Erfahrungen aus einem Jahrhundert hygienischer Prozessgestaltung helfen dabei: Mit der Verbindung von technischem Know-how aus über 100 Jahren in Technik und Hygienic Design setzt GEA einen hohen Maßstab für Verarbeitungsanlagen," die Lebensmittel schützen und Leben retten.
