Pharmaceutical R&D - Small to Medium Scale Compression
MODUL D Tablet Press
MODUL P 'ECM' technology with advanced dual control for R&D and small to medium production for single & bi-layer tableting.
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.
Features
- Exchangeable Compression Module (ECM) for D,B,BB and other sizes
- Unique bi-layer manufacturing option
- High sensitivity weight control for small tablets and those requiring low compression forces
- Tablet hardness control
- Large front and rear door for easy access
- Latest HMI for complete process control, including peripherals, for lights-out operation.
Benefits
- Fast product changeover, improved productivity, cross-contamination prevention and a safe working environment.
- High throughput of up to 1,069,000 tablets/h.
- Dual Control reduces wastage and ensures batch consistency.
- Extended dwell time at pre-compression.
- Reduced risk of capping and lamination.
- Complete process control including all peripherals for lights-out production.

MODUL Tablet Press Technology
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.
