22 September 2015 Tablets & Capsules Double-sided tablet press XT 600 double-sided tablet press provides high-volume production of single- and bi- layer tablets. Exchangeable turret offers flexibility to manufacture virtually any size and shape and maximizes uptime. Press offers 60- or 100-kilonewton pre-compression and main compression and includes compression dwell bar. Unit's carrier plate isolates vibra- tion in compression zone and minimizes noise. It has small footprint and ample access for cleaning, changeover, and turret ex-change. Channels at machine's corners allow you to mount cables, lubrication lines, and dust extraction ports to maintain clean com- pression zone and streamline changeover and turret exchange. Smart-Touch operator interface with 19-inch display allows you to easily move, zoom, and scroll content. Online help platform provides images, videos, drawings, and access to machine's man- ual to inform you about operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting. Korsch America, South Easton, MA. Tel. 508 238 9080 www.korsch.com Tablet press Prexima tablet press is based on company's Comprima concept that separates process- ing area from mechanical zones. Large doors grant easy access to product-contact com- ponents, while machine's lower zone stays closed unless maintenance is required. Two cast iron structures house compression rollers and support each of them from both sides; three-column support of cast iron structures ensure stability and handle main compression forces as high as 100 kilonewtons. Turret removes easily with help of rotating arm housed in upper mechanical compartment; Xima control interface pro- vides step-by-step operator instructions for removal.

Tooling works with standard cams and fits any tablet press without need for modification. Size B punch with elliptical head provides more dwell than conventional size D punch. Head shape enables you to run press faster when handling difficult formulations. It also improves tablet com- paction and cohesion. I Holland Americas, Fort Myers, FL.
