Tableting
Reliable Solutions for Sustainable Success
At KORSCH, we serve a diverse range of customer needs – from grams to tons – across every stage of the tableting process. From R&D to scale-up, to full scale production, our comprehensive range of machines and tablet compression expertise are here to support you.
Understand & Develop
Understand Powder Behavior to Develop Robust Formulations.
API characterization, excipient selection, and manufacturing process determination are essential in every tablet development to achieve a robust formulation. Our pharmacists and formulation experts provide insights based on experiments and data to define the best combination of excipients and processes to target optimal quality attributes.
Fingerprint your API with our scientists by assessing flowability, particle morphology, compactibility, strain rate sensitivity, and ejection stress which are amongst potential Critical Material Attributes (CMAs).
Consider batch-to-batch consistency and raw material second source approval early in the development stage to secure production efficiency
Study formulation blends and manufacturing processes following USP <1062> guidelines with our pharmacists to meet tablet Critical Quality Attributes (CQAs) such as dissolution, disintegration, or tensile strength. As an example, assess the impact of dry granulation process on flowability and re-compactibility with minimal amount of material.
Design the process to maximize production output, control cost, and ensure superior quality. Compaction simulators are essential to predict potential tablet defects and solve them during development stage. For example, sticking can be related to temperature or tooling surface which can be evaluated with our formulators prior to scale-up.
Transfer & Optimize
Transfer R&D Findings to Production or Optimize Existing Processes.
Successful scale-up, troubleshooting, and process optimization are key for tablet manufacturing efficiency. Will your formulation withstand high compression speed? What will be your maximum production output? Leverage our process specialists’ know-how and experience to define your optimal process parameters enabling high-quality production and yield increase. Our facilities also offer non-GMP tablet contract manufacturing.
De-risk scale-up by transferring Process Parameters (PPs) determined by compaction simulators to high-speed rotary tablet presses or production-scale roller compactors.
Optimize your production process parameters with our engineers to achieve consistent filling, optimal output, and minimal product loss.
- Adjusting process parameters (compression speed, edge thickness, precompression ratio) on production tablet presses can be challenging and might require a great number of iterations to succeed.
- Replicate tablet defects on compaction simulators using your tooling and your powder sample.
- Find root cause and optimize rotary tablet press setup with our technology and our expertise.
- On-site-support from our experienced technical team to tackle your production issues.
