Punch and die

Punches and dies as a key element of the tablet formulation process. They are responsible for the final appearance and shape of the tablets manufactured, so they must be designed and manufactured with great accuracy and care. During operation, tools are exposed to significant static and dynamic forces. They often press abrasive or corrosive powders, which requires the use of high-quality steels, appropriately selected heat treatment, often coating with special coatings to prevent rapid tool wear or tablet sticking, or the use of special materials such as carbides. Some applications (e.g. household chemicals or effervescent tablets) require the use of plastic inserts, such as Teflon or vulkollan, which further protect the pressing section and are a consumable component that can be replaced. ADAMUS S.A. designs and manufactures punches and dies for tablet presses of all types, according to EU (ISO), IPT (TSM) or specific tablet press manufacturers’ standards, according to customer needs. Our range includes tools for the manufacture of round and shaped tablets, monoblock and foldable, single- and multi-tip tools. The tools can be supplied in special plastic boxes suitable for later storage. Each batch shipped is accompanied by a measurement record covering 100% of the tools delivered.
