Rotary Tablet Presses for Industrial Applications
R233 Tablet Press
The R233 is a heavy-duty, fully automatic rotary high speed industrial tablet press for single-layer / double-output or double-layer / single-output tablet production.
Machine Features
- Compression forces of up to 150 kN.
- Single-layer and double-layer capability.
- Pre-compression up to 10 kN is achieved using a pre-compression cam for extended dwell times, resulting in better powder deaeration and more uniform granule distribution in the die prior to final compression.
- Maximum fill depth of 40 mm.
- Take-off system available for the horizontal removal of fragile tablets.
- Isolated and sealed compression zone for powder confinement.
- Tablet weight control based on force measurement.
- Large double-paddle forced feeder with individual drives for each paddle.
- Tool holders with high-pressure heads and cam-rolling bearings reduce wear and tear on the cams and compression rollers..
- Punch tips in steel, stainless steel or tungsten carbide.
- Multi-tip design available for solid tablets.
- Nickel-coated steel turret, forged in one piece, features replaceable wear plates.
- Standalone electrical cabinet.
- Siemens PLC for machine control,/ industrial PC for database and MultiControl5 system with a user-friendly 21.5-inch HD touchscreen.
- Highly rigid cast iron frame and high-tension chassis.
- Dust extraction nozzles.
- Stainless steel housing.
- Fully GMP-compliant design.
- Automatic punch lubrication system.
- When equipped with a die wall and punch face lubrication systems, the R233 is the ideal machine for the high-speed compression of effervescent tablets.
