The Double Cone Blender is a versatile piece of machinery for mixing dry powders and any type of granule in a homogenous manner. The slant design of this double cone blender eliminates any dead spots that sometimes occur in the traditional and conventional double cone mixer. There is a conical shape that enables a very uniform mixing and a very easy discharge. They can handle large capacities and are easy to clean, load, and unload. Working principle of Double Cone Blender Double cone blender comes in a standard and compact design. All the powder and granules are loaded int ... Read More
Diffusion mixers, also known as tumbling mixers/blender is a powder/solid mixing equipment that consists of a closed metallic vessel (usually stainless steel) that rotates about an axis either manually or with the help of a motor at an optimum speed. Powder particles, unlike fluids, must first be set in motion by some external action to achieve a proper mix. Diffusion is the main mechanism of mixing in tumbling mixer. The powdered materials to be blended are loaded into the blender container and the movement of the powdered particles occurs by tilting the material beyond th ... Read More
Shrink Sleeve labels are full-color 360-degree printed labels that utilize heat in the application process to conform the label to the shape of the product to which it is applied. These labels are printed on either plastic or polyester film material. The durability of shrink sleeves make them well-suited for products that encounter moisture or friction. WHY SHOULD YOU CHOOSE SHRINK WRAP ARTWORK? One of the largest benefits of employing shrink sleeve labels versus traditional labels is the ability to have your artwork conform to unique packaging shapes. Vibrant graphics and ... Read More

Tablet presses are machines designed to compress pharmaceutical powders and granules into tablets. They must be highly precise in order to create uniform tablets that each contain the same amount of active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients. This page will cover some key essentials that you need to know about these vital machines. Importance of Tablet Presses in the Pharmaceutical Industry The pharmaceutical industry manufactures vast numbers of tablets every day, and the safety of patients can depend on the uniformity of each dosage unit. As such, the precision capa ... Read More
Tablets are made by compressing a formulation containing a drug or drugs with or without excipients on stamping machine called presses. Tablet presses are designed including following basic components: · Hopper for holding and feeding granules. · Dies that define the size and shape of the tablet. · Punches for compressing the granules within the dies. · Cam tracks for guiding the movement of the punches. · A feeding mechanism for moving granules from hopper into the dies Tablets presses are classified either single punch or multi-station rotary presses. In the case of singl ... Read More
Every machine has a specific life time. Depending on that, it claims to operate commendably during the supposed time frame. But, do you know if the machine is properly installed and taken care of, it can work a bit more than its suggested life time? Similar is the case with tablet press machines (single punch). These machines are popular as mechanical devices, which produce uniform size tablets with uniform weight. Studies have found that if this machine is properly maintained, it can deliver high quality results for a longer period of time.So, if you are in pharmaceutical, ... Read More
Single punch tablet press also called eccentric press or single station press is the simplest machine for tablet manufacturing . Single punch tablet as the name implies employ single set of station tooling that is a die and a pair of upper and lower punches. The compaction force on the fill material is exerted by only the upper punch while the lower punch is static; such action equivalent to hammering motion and as a result, the single punch press is referred to as stamping process. The single punch tablet press produce about 60-85 tablets/min e.g. Manesty F3. Components/ f ... Read More
Multi-station press is a mechanical device that unlike the single punch tablet press has several tooling stations which rotates to compress granules/powder mixture into tablets of uniform size, shape (depending on the punch design), and uniform weight. It was developed to increase the output of tablets. In rotary press, the compaction force on the fill material is exerted by both the upper and lower punches leaving the powder granules to be compressed in the middle. This is known as accordion type of compression. The capacity of a rotary tablet press is determined by the ro ... Read More
