Precision laser drilling for osmotic controlled release tablets

Enhance tablet precision and control drug release with high-speed laser drilling, optimizing your pharmaceutical production line for consistent and accurate delivery.

Drills Precision Holes in Pharmaceutical Tablets

The Delta Laser Drilling Machine from RW Hartnett Company is designed to precisely drill holes in pharmaceutical tablets and canisters, facilitating osmotic controlled release. This machine stands out with its ability to process between 50,000 to 60,000 pieces per hour, leveraging a servo drive system for precise print registration. It features a fully adjustable hopper to ensure smooth product flow and enables single or double-sided laser drilling, accommodating bi-layered tablet drilling with precision. It is widely used in the production of osmotic pump tablets, controlled release prescriptions, and drug delivery canisters in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and biotechnology industries.

The Delta Laser Drilling Machine integrates seamlessly into continuous high-speed operations, making it ideal for processing and final conditioning departments. With capabilities like batch recording and a swingarm 15” touchscreen HMI, it offers enhanced process control and monitoring. For quality assurance, you can opt for a vision inspection system with single piece rejection and validation document packages. This machine is 21 CFR Part 11 Compliant and CE and UL certified, ensuring it meets stringent pharmaceutical industry standards. Wi-Fi connectivity and a quick-change tooling system further enhance its operational efficiency, while customization options and engineering support ensure it fits specific production needs.
