High-output tablet press for pharmaceutical production
In large-scale pharmaceutical production, achieving high efficiency and precision during tablet manufacturing is crucial. Challenges include managing consistent tablet quality, minimizing downtime, and ensuring high throughput in a competitive industry.
Efficiently produce single and bilayer tablets
The PERFORMA D, by GEA, is a double-sided rotary tablet press engineered for high-output operation in pharmaceutical manufacturing. It boasts a compact design that minimizes footprint while maximizing productivity, capable of producing up to 1,140,000 tablets per hour with its 106-station turret. Unique to the PERFORMA D is its turret enclosure, providing enhanced operator safety and facilitating rapid changeovers. The machine’s design also supports GMP-compliant production with the ability for intermediate dry cleans during long manufacturing runs. Its features include a double-paddle forced powder infeed system for uniform pressure and reduced weight variation, and a three- or four-way tablet chute for efficient sampling and easy cleaning. GEA’s proprietary MC5 control system ensures compliance with 21 CFR PART 11 guidelines for automated monitoring and reporting.
