Flower Basket Tablet Press Machine

Description

Flower Basket Tablet Press Machine (also known as a flower basket type continuous automatic tablet press) is a specialized piece of equipment designed for compressing granular or powdered raw materials into uniform tablets. The “flower basket” refers to its unique structural design, resembling a basket with multiple punches arranged radially, allowing for continuous and automated operation. Flower Basket Tablet Press Machine is widely used in industries like pharmaceuticals, chemicals, food processing, electronics, agriculture, and metallurgy for small-batch or laboratory-scale production. It excels at handling materials that are difficult to form, such as ceramic powders, metal powders, or large-diameter tablets, due to its high pressure and robust construction. Unlike larger rotary presses, it’s more compact and suitable for trial manufacturing, hospitals, or R&D settings.

Working Principle of Flower Basket Tablet Press Machine

Tablet compression machine basically works on hydraulic pressure. This pressure perform key role in any type of Tablet Machine. It transmitted unreduced through the static fluid. Any external applied pressure is transmitted through static fluid to all directions in the same proposition. which resulting make suitable to increase pressure. To form a tablet, the granulated powder material must be metered into a cavity formed by two punches and a die, and then the punches must be pressed together with great force to fuse the material together. There are two types of tablet presses called Single Station Tablet Press and Multi Station Tablet Press. Working of these machines differs in terms of production output and feature requirements.

FAQ for Flower Basket Tablet Press Machine

What is a Flower Basket Tablet Press Machine?

A Flower Basket Tablet Press Machine, also known as a Flower Basket Type Continuous Automatic Tablet Press, is a specialized rotary tablet compression machine with a unique radial “flower basket” punch arrangement. It is designed for compressing granular or powdered materials — including difficult-to-form substances like ceramics, metal powders, and chemicals — into uniform tablets. It is compact and ideal for small-batch, R&D, pilot-scale, hospital, and laboratory production across pharmaceutical, chemical, food, electronics, agriculture, and metallurgy industries.

How does a Flower Basket Tablet Press Machine work?

The machine operates on the principle of hydraulic pressure. Powder or granules are metered into a die cavity formed by upper and lower punches. The punches apply powerful pre-compression and main compression forces to fuse the material into a solid tablet. Cam tracks guide the punches through filling, compression, and ejection stages as the multi-station turret rotates continuously for efficient production.

What are the key features of the Flower Basket Tablet Press Machine?

Compact GMP model with powerful pre- and main compression forces (up to 100 KN).
Turret driven by a centrally fitted oil-immersed gearbox with speeds up to 70 RPM.
Available with optional two-layer compression, hydro-pneumatic pressure control, auto lubrication, upper punch penetration, and VFD-driven motors.
Features electronic tablet & RPM counter, anti-vibration mounts, safety interlocks, and optional PLC/HMI & pneumatic powder loading.
Tooling options in D, B, and BB configurations.

What are the production capacities and technical specifications?

Available in models 16D, 20D, 24D, and 37D with outputs ranging from 13,440 to 222,000 tablets per hour. Key specs include max compression force up to 100 KN, max tablet diameter up to 25mm (customizable higher in some variants), max depth of fill up to 20.5mm, and support for round, irregular, ring-shaped, or engraved tablets. Specifications vary by model.

What are the main advantages and applications of a Flower Basket Tablet Press Machine?
