XL 400FT

Product catalog summary
Overview: The KORSCH XL 400FT is a multifunctional rotary tablet press designed for pharmaceutical applications. It offers flexibility in producing Single-Layer, Bi-Layer, and Tri-Layer tablets using a modular platform.
Key Features:
  • Modular Design: The machine's modular components, such as compression roller stations and feeding units, allow for easy configuration changes to accommodate different tablet formats.
  • Compression Capabilities: The XL 400FT supports a main compression force of 100 kN and precompression forces of 20 kN, with tamping forces of 5 kN for multi-layer applications.
  • High Efficiency: Features like extended compression dwell time and quick turret change (less than 10 minutes) enhance operational efficiency.
  • Noise and Vibration Control: The machine operates with minimal noise (<75 dB(A)) and vibration, thanks to its unique carrier plate design with pneumatic dampers.
  • User-Friendly Interface: The touch screen control is compliant with 21 CFR Part 11, offering features like press force control, single-tablet rejection, and secure batch reporting.
  • Special Features: Options for high containment (OEB 5) and medium containment (OEB 3) are available, along with deep fill capabilities for specific tablet types.
Technical Specifications:
  • Punch Stations: Available in configurations with 47, 44, 35, or 29 stations.
  • Tablet Output: Maximum output varies by layer type, with up to 338,400 tablets per hour for single-layer tablets.
  • Machine Dimensions: 1,605 x 950 x 2,200 mm, with a net weight of 3,700 kg.
  • Electrical Load: 18.5 kVA.
Conclusion: The KORSCH XL 400FT is a versatile and efficient solution for pharmaceutical tablet production, offering advanced features for flexibility, control, and compliance with industry standards.
