Preface

The RTP 9

is a rotary tablet press that can efficiently produce a high volume of quality tablets.

With its nine Tooling heads and powerful motor, the RTP 9

has the ability to make up to 16,200

tablets an hour with a maximum of 40 kN of pressure. Rather than manually adjusting nuts and
cogs, the RTP 9

's advanced features include a convienent control console to manage tablet

thickness, fill depth, and production speed. Particularly popular in the pharmaceutical, chemical,
food, and electronic industries, the RTP 9

has been designed for research and development and

medium-sized production with an emphasis on safety and ease of use.

The purpose of this document is to support your understanding of the RTP 9

’s components,

features, functions, and design. With this manual, you will be able to successfully operate and
maintain your RTP 9

machine.

The user manual’s content includes:

• Important safety information
