Article: How To Maximize Tablet Press Productivity In A Tight Economy

The Beginnings of Change
Back in 1991, users of rotary tablet presses the world over were unwittingly sacrificing valuable manufacturing opportunities as they plodded their way through product changeovers. During this wasted downtime, their high-speed machines sat idle as punches and dies were painstakingly removed and replaced by a different set. Recognizing the opportunity to provide a solution to the global pharmaceutical industry, Fette, of Schwarzenbek, Germany, developed a revolutionary removable turret system that completely altered the way companies thought about moving from one product to the next. Thanks to this innovative technology, press users could maximize the utility of their machines like never before, with dramatically reduced changeover times.
