GEA Pharma & Healthcare has introduced NexGen Press 45, the latest member of its NexGen Press line of tablet presses. The larger NexGen Press 45 builds on the previous NexGen Press 30 version and offers the same benefits as the smaller generation, including flexibility to adapt to any containment level (up to occupational exposure band 5 [OEB5]), which is attributed to the FAST CHANGEOVER Exchangeable Compression Module (FCO ECM). The new press can also be equipped with the same option packs as the previous version, enabling agile production and making it a system that can be tailored to accommodate a wide range of tableting applications (e.g., multi-unit pellet system, bilayer, poorly flowing products, high yield, microtablets, etc.). Additionally, the system can accommodate different cleaning strategies (wash offline or inline). A further advantage of the NexGen Press range is that every machine is equipped with six compression modes and each benefits from GEA’s unique Air Compensator technology, which effectively reduces common compression issues.
