Double rotary press for high-volume tablet compression
Achieve high-speed, precision tablet compression with a machine that ensures optimized weight control and efficient rejection of defective units, enhancing productivity and quality in batch production.

Compresses Monolayer and Bilayer Tablets Efficiently
The PROTAB™ 700 from ACG is a state-of-the-art double rotary tablet compression machine designed for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers facing large-scale production challenges. What sets it apart is its ability to compress both monolayer and bilayer tablets with precision, thanks to the InstAmend technology that immediately detects and corrects faulty punches, significantly minimizing process interruptions. This machine is adept at handling a variety of end-products, including paracetamol tablets and multivitamin supplements, with an output of up to 816,000 bilayer tablets per hour.
Furthermore, the PROTAB™ 700 features an interchangeable turret design, allowing for compression of different tablet sizes at varying speeds, and a servo-based automatic weight control system that ensures tablets of consistently precise weight. The toolless assembly design speeds up changeovers, reducing production downtime to just 60 minutes per batch. Designed for seamless integration into existing lines, this machine supports efficient operations with its sophisticated feeder design, effectively reducing formulation loss. Engineered for flexibility and efficiency, it meets stringent industry standards, facilitating compliance with regulatory requirements.
