Powder/granulates

Each granule has its own unique particle size distribution, flowability and compression properties to meet the required tableting requirements. Some powder like herb based powder ,needs larger press pressure to make hard and shinny tablets. These properties are related to the mold and tablet press you use.

Mold/punch tooling

The size and shape of the mold determines the size and shape of the tablets that are pressed. Therefore, the molds on tablet presses come in a variety of sizes and shapes. In addition, the materials, coatings, and heat treatments used in the molds are also different, which will also affect the tableting process.
