Tablet press XL 100

for productionR&D

The XL 100 features an integrated electrical cabinet and a very simple and robust mechanical design. The fully self-contained and portable machine is the ideal tool for the product development. The XL 100 offers extreme accessibility to the compression zone (no corner columns), an exchangeable turret for maximum flexibility, and a combination of quick-disconnects and smooth surfaces that permit fast cleaning and changeover. DESIGNED FOR PHARMA & NUTRACEUTICALS With a versatile design concept, the XL 100 research tablet press is suited either for product development, scale-up, or clinical batch production. The machine complies with the highest standard in GMP- and all valid FDA-regulations. KORSCH controls permit full compliance with 21 CFR Part 11. SMALL PRODUCT QUANTITIES The XL 100 permits the execution of full compaction studies with limited material quantities. A reduced volume product hopper and reduced volume feeder insure efficient operation, and the control system is fully functional with reduced press tools. The mixed turret design permits the development of B and D size tablets on the same turret. PERFORMANCE The machine offers a precompression capability of 10 kN and a main compression capability of 60 kN and a maximal Output of 86.400 tablets/h with a maximum press speed of 120 RPM. The 120 RPM press speed permits meaningful data on compression dwell time and feeder dwell time to be developed and analyzed. INSTRUMENTATION The XL 100 may be fully instrumented for the measurement of precompression force, main compression force, ejection force, and scrape off force, to permit product development parameters to be evaluated and stored.
