Natoli’s video demonstrates tooling installation and press set up for the NP-500 rotary tablet press.  The “How To” video gives thorough step-by-step instructions how to setup the tablet press.  Natoli's NP–500 Series is a double-sided, rotary tablet press that is designed to compress tablets requiring extra fill and extended dwell time.

Installation of round tooling is the simplest tooling to install on the tablet press, first make sure all punch guides are clean. Next remove debris out of the dye pocket. Insert the dye on the dye pocket and secure dye with a dye lock. Then install the lower punch and upper punch by lubricating the punches and inserting them into the appropriate punch guide and then tighten with a punch retainer.
