Tablet Press NP255

Setting a New Benchmark for Ease of Operation

The NP-255 is a robust tablet press that was built to meet even the most demanding needs of the mid-sized tableting industry. The press has features and options designed to increase production, improve tablet quality, reduce waste, and set a new benchmark for ease of operation. Designed, engineered, and manufactured in the USA, this unique machine has a maximum production speed of 192,000 tablets per hour.

With a hardened steel die table, a gravity feeder that is interchangeable with a two-paddle forced feeder, and our industry-leading intuitive Natoli AIM™ ProPluscontrol system, the NP-255 is the new standard for value in the mid-sized tableting industry.
