Tablet rotary punch machine are designed with the following basic components:
Hopper: It is used to hold the materials (drug or the drug with excipients/granules) to be compressed and supply the material to the die and removes the tablet after its compression
Dies: Dies defines the shape and the size of the tablet by allowing the lower and upper punch to come close together to compress the material.
Lower and upper punches: These are used for compressing of the materials (drug or the drug with excipients/granules) within the dies.
Cam track: This is the component used forguiding the movement of the punches.
Capacity regulator: To adjust the position of the lower punch to accommodate the required quantity of materials by the die.
Ejection regulator: To adjust the position of the lower punch, so that its highest position is at par with the surface of the die.
Driving wheel: It helps in the movement of the lower punch, the upper punch and hopper shoe and also check their movement.
