Tablet pressing system for solid chemicals and cosmetic products

Optimize your tableting process for diverse solid products with reliable compression and forming capabilities, ensuring consistent quality and high-speed production efficiency.

Compresses and Forms Solid and Granular Tablets

The PREXIMA series from IMA Group represents a robust solution for high-speed, continuous tablet production across pharmaceutical, chemical, and cosmetic industries. Engineered for precision, these tablet presses utilize interchangeable die tables and tooling to accommodate diverse tablet shapes and sizes, including complex bilayer formations. Featuring advanced isolation with special seals, the equipment minimizes contamination risks while maintaining optimal performance, delivering pre-compression and main compression forces up to 100 kN. Its high-yield motorization minimizes heat, enhancing efficiency without external cooling devices. The series includes models with output capabilities of up to 21,000 tablets per minute, designed for easy integration into existing production lines. PREXIMA’s user-friendly design incorporates a strategic HMI for enhanced operator efficiency and streamlined maintenance processes. It ensures compliance with industry standards, offering customization options tailored to specific material requirements in demanding operational environments.
