MODUL™ Tablet Presses
Compression with ECM technology for high throughput and fast changeover applications.
The revolutionary MODUL rotary tablet press has an Exchangeable Compression Module (ECM), which allows full change-over in as little as 30 minutes. All product contact parts are contained in an ISOLATED DUST-TIGHT module, which can be disconnected and removed from the machine in a contained manner, leaving the tablet press itself powder-free. A second isolated module, cleaned and prepared off-line, can now be installed and the machine is ready to produce the next batch.
The MODUL S is the high output version of the MODUL P. It is a larger, heavier machine that benefits from the Standard Dual Control system that allows tablet weight, hardness and dwell times to be controlled to meet operational requirements. The larger turret on the MODUL S also provides a longer feeder length to achieve optimal residence times during die filling, especially for products that do not flow well. This helps to reduce capping at very high throughput levels.
The MODUL S is available for the following types of tooling:

MODUL P 'ECM' technology with advanced dual control for R&D and small to medium production for single & bi-layer tableting, ideally suited for formulation development, clinical trial production and small-batch / multi-product production.
All MODUL tablet presses are based on the Exchangeable Compression Module (ECM) concept. The ECM is completely isolated from the remainder of the machine, contains all product contact parts and can easily be removed from the press in a contained way. This means that the press itself remains powder-free and requires no cleaning.
Featuring an innovative design that promotes operator (and environmental) safety and ease of use, the NexGen Press® range is modular, intuitive and cost-effective to run, combining unrivaled containment with fast product changeovers and the best price-performance tableting system..
Afvalreductie is belangrijk voor ons bij GEA en door de kracht van vriesdroogtechnologie te benutten, kunnen we voedseloverschotten omzetten in waardevolle, duurzame producten die ons helpen afval te reduceren, de houdbaarheid te verlengen en een beter bestendige voedselvoorzieningsketen voor toekomstige generaties te creëren.
Toen de Zuid-Koreaanse ‘plant-forward’ voedselproducent Pulmuone bij GEA aanklopte met de uitdaging om een moderne draai aan de traditionele taaie koude (naengmyeon-) noodle te geven, konden de R&D-experts van GEA de uitdaging aan. Ze hielpen met de ontwikkeling van wat nu een commerciële hit is die met minder water en elektriciteit wordt geproduceerd dan de reeds bestaande methoden. Het resultaat is ook getrouw aan de traditionele oorsprong van het gerecht, evenals de wortels van Pulmuone op het gebied van gezondheid, welzijn en duurzaamheid.
