Pre-Pressure Thickness
The pre-pressure thickness could be adjusted in the event that ejection forces are exceedingly high
and it needs to be reduced, or it needs to be increased to help with air elimination in powder.
Tools and Materials Needed
• Disposable latex/rubber gloves (for food grade products and to protect hands from grease)
• Hairnet and/or beard net (food grade products only)
• Sterile shoe covers (food grade products only)
Instructions
Note: Wear latex/rubber gloves (and appropriate food grade attire if applicable) during this process.
1. Produce test tablets to determine how the machine should be adjusted.
2. Turn the middle innerknob counterclockwise to unlock the pre-pressure adjustment knob.
3. Rotate the middle knob on the console to change the pre-pressure thickness.
3.1 Note: To make tablets thinner rotate the knob counterclockwise (increase punch
pressure). To make tablets thicker, rotate the knob clockwise (decrease punch pressure).
4. Turn the middle innerknob clockwise to lock the pre-pressure adjustment knob.
