Tablet Press Technology for Double Layer Tableting and High-Volume Production

Tablet Press Single Layer Circulation

Tablet Press Double Layer Circulation

In high-volume pharmaceutical and nutraceutical production, efficiency is driven by two factors: Speed and Stability. The PTK PR-4000 High-Speed Rotary Tablet Press is engineered to deliver both, featuring an advanced Circulation System that supports both Single and Double Layer tableting at a massive scale—up to 837,000 tablets per hour.

Optimized Tableting Flow: The Core Process

To ensure zero-defect production, the PR-4000 follows a precision-engineered 4-step cycle:

• 1. Filling — Utilizing a high-performance Force Feeder to ensure uniform powder distribution into the dies.
• 2. Pre-compression — Removing entrapped air before the final press to prevent common defects like Capping and Cracking.
• 3. Main compression — Applying precise force (up to 100kN) to achieve the exact target Hardness and Thickness.
• 4. Ejection — Smooth discharge of finished tablets with an integrated Auto-Reject system that instantly removes out-of-spec units for 100% quality control.

Why Industry Leaders Choose the PR-4000

Versatile Circulation — Seamlessly switch between Single-Layer and Double-Layer production to meet diverse manufacturing needs.

Compliance Ready — Fully compliant with 21 CFR Part 11 for rigorous data integrity and security standards.

Minimal Downtime — Features a Changeable Turret option for rapid setup, ensuring maximum machine uptime and operational efficiency.

Conclusion
