OSDrC® Technology

OSDrC® technology includes several technologies, such as variable double punches, that go beyond the parameters of current tableting machines. The very latest technologies developed through a range of simulations have been harnessed, creating the ability to manufacture these innovative tablet configurations at a rate of 100,000 per hour, while avoiding such problems as misaligned cores, mass variability, and cross-contamination.

One-Step Manufacture of Cored Tablets with Variable Double-Punch Technology

OSDrC® technology is an innovative new pharmaceutical manufacturing technology that produces precise tablets of nearly any shape using a variable double-punch configuration. This rotary tableting machine has 54 double punches and three feeders. Because the tablets are produced in a single step while the punches make one rotation on a turntable, there is no longer any need for a separate stage to deliver the core. Because the core is held in place by the lower outer punch until immediately before the final compression, misalignment does not occur.
