Flatbed laser drilling for tablet manufacturing
Optimize your tablet production with high-speed laser drilling, ensuring precise perforations on coated tablets for controlled release, essential in producing extended-release pharmaceuticals and supplements effectively.
Laser Drills High-Speed Tablet Production
The H-Track Laser Drilling Machine from RW Hartnett Company is a precision-engineered flatbed system designed for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical tablet production. It laser drills one side of tablets at speeds of up to 180,000 pieces per hour, addressing high-speed and continuous operation demands. With a servo drive system for precise print registration and an adjustable feed hopper for optimal fill rates, this machine ensures efficient production. Applications include extended-release tablets and coated vitamin or herbal supplement tablets. Equipped with a swingarm 15” touchscreen HMI, Wi-Fi connectivity, and batch recording, the H-Track Laser Drill facilitates seamless integration into production lines. It meets 21 CFR Part 11 compliance and is CE and UL certified. For material handling, the optional floor-level infeed bulk conveyor enhances operational efficiency.
