Abstracts: VISAT ENGINEERING manufacturing tablet press machine, tablet punches, dies and precision machinery parts with a focus on Transforming machine to pharmaceutical excellence. The tablet is considered to be the preferred dosage form both in an administration and manufacturing perspective. The tablet formulation comprises several components with different properties and functions, in most cases divided in active ingredient and excipients, e.g. fillers, disintegrants and antiadherents. The tablet should be sufficiently hard to withstand attrition during handling but possible to be divided by hand. The tablet strength also subsequently influences the drug dissolution profile, which affects how fast (or slow) the effect of the drug is inserted in the patient. The burning problem of this industry is the variation in a tablet weight during process. When punching was done on the die, the powder is sweep out with the upper punch so weight of the tablets in this process is different in weight The aim of the project is to reduce the variation in weight by providing pull down track mechanism.
