Continuous direct compression system for tablet production
Achieve seamless continuous direct compression by integrating dosing, blending, conveying, and compression in one compact system, optimizing space and efficiency in your tablet production line.

Performs Continuous Dosing, Blending, and Tablet Compression
The FE CPS from Fette Compacting is an innovative continuous processing system designed for pharmaceutical applications. What sets the FE CPS apart is its seamless integration of dosing, blending, conveying, and compression within a compact footprint. This system actively supports the production of pharmaceutical tablets and powders, such as Ibuprofen and Vitamin C tablets, handling throughput capacities ranging from 10 to 200 kg/h depending on formulation. Operating as a continuous process, it features embedded Process Analytical Technology (ePAT) for real-time process monitoring and quality control.
This ensures precise adjustments can be made swiftly to maintain product consistency and quality. With flexible setup options and modular design, the FE CPS can be installed in various configurations to fit existing production lines. Constructed with materials that prioritize operator safety and ease of maintenance, it also includes dust-tight units with negative pressure systems for safe handling of pharmaceutical powders. Furthermore, its user-friendly Human Machine Interface (HMI) simplifies process management, offering centrally controlled parameters for all operations. The FE CPS system complies with GMP standards, making it suitable for pharmaceutical manufacturing environments aiming to enhance efficiency and reduce production complexity.
