Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment typically ranges from 100,000 to 300,000 tablets per hour, depending on tablet size and design.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a single-phase (1Ph) electrical supply, typically 220-240V.

Construction material

For pharmaceutical applications, units are typically constructed from 304 or 316L stainless steel for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Dedusting method

This model likely uses vibration and/or air jet technology to gently remove dust from tablet surfaces as they ascend a spiral path.

Mobility

Many dedusters, including this model, are designed to be mobile, often fitted with castors for easy relocation within a facility.

Control

Units commonly feature adjustable frequency inverters to control vibration intensity and tablet residence time, optimising dedusting efficiency.
