Manual tablet press 3.1 kN
Compact and lightweight model requires no power supply
This Tablet Press is an advanced, manually operated pill press that is able to press round tablets up to 10mm in diameter and 6mm thick without the need for electrical power.
Thanks to its compact dimensions, light weight and manual operation this is popular in applications that require portability and simplicity of use, including field applications and on work carried out on location.
With interchangeable dies and a useful 3.1 kN of pressure, the manual press makes it easy to produce high quality tablets for use in universities, hospitals, laboratories and research institutes in the pharmaceutical, food and chemical industries.
It is also ideal for any user who needs to make a small number of tablets, or to create tablets on an ad hoc basis.
Exceptionally cheap to run, as it uses no electric power, and simple to maintain is a fast and flexible way to produce small quantities of tablets.
Main benefits at a glance
- Small and light weight, making it far more portable than electric powered tablet presses
- Advanced engineering makes it easy to produce high quality tablets without electricity
- Up to 12 mm diameter round tablets
- Easy to use and maintain
- Interchangeable dies
- No running costs
- Well engineered, reliable machine for a wide range of applications
- Features
- The striking features of this pressa are its light weight, compact size, easy portability and advanced design that makes it possible to produce good quality tablets without an outside power source
- Operating completely without electricity, and with a very efficient mechanism to turn manual power into pressure, this model is the perfect tablet press for any application that requires a simple but effective tabletting solution in the field or at a low running cost
With no ongoing expenses beyond the occasional drop of lubricating oil, this is highly cost effective.
Yet it can take a wide range of dies, and produce properly compacted tablets of a high standard.
Before using the press you might imagine that it would require a lot of effort, but nothing could be further from the truth.
Once you have installed the die and filled the machine with powder you simply crank the handle. It only takes a modest amount of effort, yet produces first rate tablets. It is easy enough to turn out twenty tablets a minute, and with a little practise you can readily manage forty a minute.
If you want to adjust the tablet thickness or hardness, both are easy to achieve with just a couple of movements.
That really is all there is to it. The machine itself weighs about 24kg, and is small and compact enough to lift without too much difficulty. Compared to many hundreds of kilos in weight for most large commercial machines, this press is a very light weight solution. Certainly, it is light enough to move around a hospital, laboratory or university faculty as needed.
The press is a clever piece of engineering that makes it exceptionally easy to churn out tablets at a low cost and in almost any location that has a flat working space.
The design is compact and eminently storable when not being used, yet it is highly effective in operation.
Stable, surprisingly efficient in its conversion of manual energy into tabletting pressure, and simple to maintain, this is the ideal tablet press for small scale tabletting where the cost and space associated with larger machines cannot be justified. Yet it produces excellent tablets that are strong and durable.
