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:
