Pharmacutical Single Sided Rotary Tablet Press Machines
(D4 Type Square GMP Model) 16 STN D, 20 STN D
The single-sided rotary tablet press machine is a mechanical device that plays a crucial role in the pharmaceutical industry. Its primary function is to compress powdered or granular substances into tablets of consistent size and shape. The machine comprises a rotating turret with a number of punches and dies that work together to compress the substance into tablet form.
The single-sided rotary tablet press machine derives its name from its single-sided compression mechanism. This means that the upper and lower punches are located on the same side of the turret. This type of machine is typically used for producing tablets with a single impression or marking on one side.
The process of tablet pressing involves feeding the substance into the feed frame, which then moves the powder to the dies located in the turret. The upper punch compresses the powder into the die, and the lower punch pushes the tablet out of the die and onto the discharge chute.
