KTP 180X Tablet Press
The KTP 180X is the ideal rotary tablet press for applications in the pharmaceutical industry – from R&D through clinical batches to small scale production.
The machine is available in two configurations:
- KTP 180X Production
- KTP 180X Laboratory
Benefits of the KTP 180X
- Suitable for R&D applications or small scale production
- Unique scale-up functionality
- Extensive, user-tailored data capturing capabilities in the R&D configuration
- Handling, operation and robust design comparable with a large-volume production machine
- Operation via a 12″ integrated touch panel (HMI)
- Data acquisition system integrated in the operating software
- Small footprint
Technical Highlights
- Interchangeable die table
- Mixed die-tables available for B+D tooling
- Easy access to all product-contact-parts
- Patented, wear-free brake magnets
- Individual tablet rejection system using compressed air
- Fully automated machine including weight control
- R&D machine version monitors upper and lower compression forces, ejection force, pre-compression force, tablet scraping force, upper and lower punch displacement
- Magnesium stearate spraying system available (PKB)
- Paddle force feeding with two paddles available as an option
