Like everybody, we at GEA Pharma Systems welcome praise, especially from happy customers. Just such praise came recently in the form of a customer review, published in European Manufacturing Review, of our MODUL™ S tablet press with Exchangable Compression Module.
What our customer had to say:
Our site has been using Courtoy R190 tablet presses for a number of years and we had a very good experience with these presses and with the support from Courtoy. For our new facility we were looking for presses that overall could minimise the cost of production without compromising the quality of the product.
Key parameters were speed of the presses, fast changeover time between products and flexibility of the press to handle various products with very different physical properties.
After very thorough selection process where we considered both European presses and presses from overseas countries, we finally selected the MODUL™ S press from Courtoy.
The presses have now been in operation for over 3 months and during this time a number of products have been transferred onto the presses.
Until now we have been satisfied with the performance and all technical issues that have arisen have been resolved in a very fast and satisfactory way. Technical Support from Courtoy has been very good and we would like to emphasise that the process support has proven to be very valuable with significant speed increase of production for a number of products.
Key Purchasing Criteria
- Cost of production per tablet
- Speed of the tablet press and fast changeover time
