Application & Process
Prism TabXpress-PTX Tablet Press Machine is used for production of simple and precise tablets from powder in Pharmaceutical and relevant Industries.
Prism TabXpress-PTX is a high speed single sided central drive Pre compression Rotary Tablet Press suitable for medium batch size production.
Prism TabXpress-PTX designed in an effort to exceed the highest cGMP requirement and to ensure the most economical and efficient tablet production. The Prism TabXpress-PTX features a unique ergonomic design for easy to operate, easy to fast changeover, easy to clean with minimum down time. The TabXpress Tablet Press is completely separated into three zones i.e. Tablet Compression zone, Machine service zone and Electrical controls zone. The Optional feature of Prism TabXpress-PTX machine can provide with Touch Screen Operate Interface with PLC Controls, which is mounted in a separate electric controls cabinet.
Prism TabXpress PTX Tablet Press is offered in four different models viz. Tooling 26 Stn “D” Type, 32 Stn “B” Type, 40 Stn “BB” Type.
