Salt Tablet Press Machine

Description

Salt Tablet Press Machine is a specialized industrial equipment designed to compress granulated or powdered salt into uniform, solid tablets or blocks. These machines are essential in industries like water treatment, food processing, and pharmaceuticals, where salt tablets are used for applications such as water softening, dishwashing, animal feed supplements, or effervescent formulations. Unlike standard tablet presses, salt-specific models are built with enhanced corrosion resistance due to salt’s abrasive and corrosive nature, ensuring durability and hygiene. They operate on principles of hydraulic or mechanical pressure to achieve precise tablet dimensions, weight, and hardness.

The process is automated and continuous for high-volume production:

 

  • Material Feeding: Granulated salt powder is fed into the machine’s hopper or cavity, often using a force feeder or bucket-type mechanism to ensure even distribution.

 

  • Compression: The salt enters a die cavity between upper and lower punches. High-pressure punches compress the material, fusing it into a solid tablet. Hydraulic systems transmit even pressure via static fluid, while rotary models use rotating turrets for multiple stations.

 

  • Ejection and Output: The formed tablet is ejected from the die, with adjustable settings for thickness (up to 18 mm) and diameter (up to 30 mm). Tablets can be round, geometric, double-layered, or imprinted.

 

  • Quality Control: Machines include overload protection to prevent damage, automatic lubrication for minimal downtime, and features like stainless steel (SS 316) contact parts to resist rust and contamination.

Working Principle of Salt 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 Salt Tablet Press Machine

The machine operates on the principle of hydraulic or mechanical pressure. Granulated salt is fed from the hopper into the die cavity. Upper and lower punches apply pre-compression (to remove air) and main compression forces to form solid tablets. In rotary models, a rotating turret with multiple stations enables continuous high-speed production. Finished tablets are ejected, with adjustable controls for thickness, diameter, and hardness.

Key features include a compact GMP model, powerful pre- and main compression forces (up to 100 KN), oil-immersed gearbox-driven turret (up to 70 RPM), auto lubrication, hydro-pneumatic pressure control, upper punch penetration adjustment, VFD-driven motors, electronic tablet counter, safety interlocks, and optional two-layer compression, PLC/HMI, and pneumatic powder loading. It supports D, B, and BB tooling.

The machine is available in models such as 16D, 20D, 24D, and 37D, with outputs ranging from approximately 13,440 to 222,000 tablets per hour. Key specs include max compression force up to 100 KN, max tablet diameter up to 25mm, max fill depth up to 20.5mm, and support for various tablet shapes (round, geometric, imprinted). Power and dimensions vary by model (e.g., 3–9 H.P. motor).

Advantages include high output and scalability, uniform tablet quality with consistent hardness and dissolution, corrosion resistance for longer machine life, reduced material wastage, easy tooling changeover, low maintenance, and full cGMP compliance. It is ideal for high-volume production in water treatment, food, and chemical industries while maintaining precision and hygiene.
