Tableting and heat seal packaging solution for effervescent products

Hygroscopic products are challenging to compress, difficult to store and the fragile effervescent tablets need to be carefully handled not only during feeding, but also throughout the whole manufacturing and packaging process. They’re easily affected by mechanical stress, light, air and moisture.

Your challenges

  • Stability of active ingredients

  • Packaging material

  • Handling of effervescent tablets

  • Sustainable production

  • Capacity requirements

  • Tablet hardness and/or formulation


Our solution

  • Efficient filling systems
  • 3 sets of pressure rollers

  • Gentle and safe transport to the tube filler
  • Dedusting of tablets
  • Tablet separation to avoid breakage

  • Various stations for dust aspiration and elimination of breakages
