Rotary tablet press for large volume industrial tablets
In industries requiring high-volume tablet production, manual or semi-automatic presses often fall short due to frequent maintenance and insufficient output. The demand for consistent, large-scale production is critical, particularly in sectors such as detergents and automotive parts, where uniformity and speed are key.

Produces large volumes of industrial tablets efficiently
The R253 is a fully automatic, high-speed rotary tablet press from GEA, designed to handle single-layer/double-output or double-layer/single-output tablet production. Capable of operating 24/7 with minimal maintenance, this press is ideal for high-volume manufacturing of products like detergent tablets, catalysts, and automotive parts. It can produce tablets with one or multiple vertical holes, ensuring versatility across different industrial applications. The R253 features a maximum compression force of up to 200 kN and utilizes pre-compression to enhance powder deaeration and uniform granule distribution. A robust design includes a nickel-coated steel turret, isolated compression zone for powder confinement, and a Siemens PLC for seamless control and data management.
