Reduce Powder Loss & Formulation Degradation With the Right Slide-in Seals

Proper slide‑in seal selection helps control powder exposure to the rotating die table during tablet press operation. This reduces unnecessary powder loss, friction‑related heat, and particle degradation.

The choice of seal is especially critical when operating with blanked stations. When fewer stations are active, less powder is consumed per turret revolution, which increases the time the formulation spends circulating in the feeder. The extended residence time can generate additional heat and fines, which contribute to tablet‑quality issues such as sticking and capping.
