Loading a tablet press can often be a difficult process, compromising operator safety and containment while trying to feed powder into the hopper above the tablet press.
Using a vacuum transfer system to load the press can overcome these problems, by drawing product from floor level and discharging into the press. This process can be automated by using a level sensor to ‘call’ for powder when the material level in the buffer hopper is low.
The vacuum conveyor sucks material from the ground floor drum and up into the Uni-Vac hopper. Once full, the outlet valve opens and discharges the material into the machine.
