The flower basket tablet press mold undergoes up and down reciprocating motion during the tablet pressing process, driven by the tablet press drive mechanism. When moving up and down, the material is filled into the middle mold hole, and the upward movement continues to exert pressure on the material, gradually compressing it into shape in the middle mold. As the pressure increases, the distance between material particles decreases, and they combine with each other to form tablets with certain strength and shape. When the punch mold moves upward, the compressed tablet is pushed out of the mold hole, completing one tablet pressing process.

Calibration of flower basket tablet press mold:

1. Installation, debugging, and calibration:

-Ensure that the flower basket tablet press is placed horizontally and installed firmly, which is a prerequisite for ensuring the accuracy of mold calibration. Tools such as a level can be used for inspection and adjustment.

-Install the mold correctly, fix it in the corresponding position of the tablet press according to the installation instructions of the mold, and ensure that the installation is firm, avoiding looseness or displacement during the tablet press process.

-Adjust the gap between the mold and the punch to make it uniform and meet the process requirements. Excessive or insufficient gaps can affect the quality of tablets, such as their hardness and thickness uniformity. Generally, accurate control of the gap is achieved by adjusting the adjustment device of the tablet press.

2. Pressure calibration:

-Set the appropriate compression pressure based on the characteristics of the material to be compressed and the required tablet hardness. Use pressure sensors or pressure testers to calibrate the pressure output of the tablet press, ensuring that the actual pressure matches the set pressure.

-During the compression process, observe the changes in the pressure gauge reading and check if the pressure is stable. If significant pressure fluctuations are found, it is necessary to check whether there are any faults in the hydraulic system, pneumatic system, or mechanical transmission system of the tablet press, and make corresponding adjustments and repairs.

3. Filling amount calibration:

-Adjust the feeding device of the flower basket tablet press to ensure that the material is evenly filled into the mold. The filling amount can be controlled by adjusting parameters such as feeding speed and feeding quantity.

-Use measuring tools or electronic scales to measure and calibrate the amount of material filled each time, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the filling amount. The difference in filling amount can lead to uneven tablet weight, affecting the accuracy of drug dosage.

4. Run calibration:

-Start the flower basket tablet press and let it run idle for a period of time, observing the operation of the mold, including whether there are any abnormal vibrations, noises, etc. If there is any abnormality, the machine should be stopped immediately for inspection and troubleshooting.

-Conduct trial compression, prepare a certain number of tablets, and then inspect the quality of the tablets, such as weight differences, hardness, thickness, disintegration time, etc. Based on the inspection results, further fine tune the parameters of the mold and tablet press until the tablet quality meets the requirements.
