This chart shows Courtoy's unique compression cycle, which is based on pneumatic compensation.
The use of a pneumatic compensator at pre-compression allows for extended dwell time and an extremely accurate weight control system. The movement of the top compression roller in an air cushion generates an extended compression profile at pre-compression resulting in better de-aeration of the powder and a more uniform distribution of the granules in the die prior to final compression. This results in a higher tablet quality and eliminates the risk of capping.
