Rotary tablet press for abrasive powders
In industrial applications, particularly non-pharma sectors, there is a need for robust solutions to press abrasive powders into tablets efficiently. High wear resistance and ease of maintenance are critical factors for these applications.

Efficiently press abrasive powders into tablets
The PERFORMA P by GEA is a rotary tablet press engineered for industrial applications requiring high wear resistance. Particularly designed for abrasive powders, the PERFORMA P features replaceable exchangeable die discs (EDDs), minimizing the need for extensive investments by only duplicating the essential parts. The turret, which includes the upper punch guide, the EDD, and the lower punch guide, can be easily swung out or partially removed for quick maintenance. Additionally, the PERFORMA P can be equipped with a bilayer production kit, enhancing its versatility for small-to-medium scale operations. The system integrates dust extraction nozzles and features a 2.5 kN tamping station with an 80 kN final compression station. The machine supports tooling configurations including D, B BB, BBS, and A, with capacities up to 374,000 tablets per hour.
