Tablet press MODUL™ D

for the pharmaceutical industrydouble-sided

The MODUL™ D is the largest tablet press in the range. It features the Dual Control system, an Exchangeable Compression Module (ECM) and all the standard features, with one important addition: double-sided production for super-high volume applications or bi-layer production. The MODUL™ D features a larger turret, containing up to 88 punch stations and making it capable of production levels in excess of 1 million tablets per hour. It is the machine of choice for high volume applications when minimal downtime and environment protection are key. ECM: Exchangeable Compression Module All parts in contact with the product are encapsulated in the ECM including the tooling. The ECM is removed in a contained manner, eliminating the need for cleaning of the inside of the press. This results in very high productivity, as the downtime is reduced to an absolute minimum. At the same time, a very high level of operator protection is achieved. Bi-layer tableting has been incorporated into the design of the MODUL D Zero-gap closed powder feeder to minimize cross-contamination between layers and to minimize powder loss. Specially designed extraction nozzles and scraper fingers for optimal cleaning of the die table, again to minimize cross-contamination between layers. Manual or fully automatic first-layer sampling. Patented weight control system, which is exceptionally sensitive and accurate even at low compression forces. This is particularly important in case of bi-layer production, as low compression forces are applied to guarantee optimal bonding between the two tablet layers.
