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.

L'évolution des emballages alimentaires en 4 tendances
Si le thermoformage joue depuis longtemps un rôle central dans le domaine de l'emballage alimentaire, il doit aujourd'hui affronter un tournant majeur. À une époque comme la nôtre où les réglementations se durcissent, où les matériaux évoluent et où les coûts augmentent, il ne suffit plus que les lignes de conditionnement FFS ou <i>Form-Fill-Seal</i> (Former-Remplir-Sceller) fonctionnent de manière fiable : elles sont désormais déterminantes pour garantir la fraîcheur des denrées, un prix accessible et la recyclabilité. Examinez de plus près les grandes tendances qui dans le domaine du thermoformage façonnent le secteur de l'emballage et de la distribution alimentaires.
