What are the causes of dust produced by the tablet press?

1. Dust is generated during the manual feeding process.

2. When the equipment is in normal operation, the process of upper punching:

The dust generated is adsorbed by the plexiglass door, so the operator cannot see the pressing situation clearly. For normal production, the plexiglass door has to be opened, which is not in line with THE GMP standard.

The uprush also gets into the dust. Powder adsorption lubricating oil due to the lack of oil and regular injection. If it is not cleaned in time, the up-rush and up-guide rail will often wear down, resulting in the equipment can not work normally.

The dust generated by the equipment running for a long time will enter the electric control box and cause electrical faults.

Dust will contaminate the stamping room, making it difficult to clean and disinfect.

3. During the operation of the equipment, dust in the stamping process is absorbed by powder suction nozzle, but there is still some dust behind the punching rod behind the middle module. When the punching rod is removed and the punching rod is used to hit the middle module, the adsorbed dust enters the guide rail along the punching hole and the mixed lubricating oil forms sludge.

4. During the normal operation of the equipment, the feeding hopper leaks powder. If it is not cleaned in time, a large amount of fine powder leaked by the feeder will accumulate. It will follow the rotation of the turntable through the space between the turntable and the bottom plate to the lower guide. The incoming powder will dry out the oil, causing wear at the end of the pressure wheel and the guide, reducing the guide's service life. If it is not found in time, it may break and damage the lower guide rail.
