Natoli Engineering -Model NP-RD10A -Single-Station Tablet Press for R&D
The NP-RD10A single-station bench top tablet press is a sophisticated instrument designed for laboratory research and development, particularly when only small quantities of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are available. This compact device provides precise control over tablet parameters, such as hardness and weight, meeting specific production requirements. Its sensitivity enables researchers to gain critical data from minimal API samples, making it a robust choice for teaching in both R&D labs and universities. Featuring a quick tooling changeover of under two minutes, it minimizes material waste by requiring only a single tablet for comprehensive analysis. Additionally, the Natoli AIM™ Pro Data Acquisition & Analysis Software, preloaded on a portable laptop, efficiently analyzes parameters like compression and ejection forces from tablet press operations. This capability facilitates the identification and rectification of formulation challenges, streamlining the overall research and development process.- Programmable Parameters

The NP-RD10A analytical, single-station bench top tablet press is ideal for laboratory research and development when only small samples of API are available for testing. The NP-RD10A has multi-layering capabilities and permits independent control of both tablet hardness and weight to meet tablet production requirements and specifications.
Sensitive enough to yield critical data from minimal amounts of APIs, yet robust enough for hands-on research. This analytical press is a great tool to offer training to R&D labs as well as universities.

Natoli AIM™Pro Data Acquisition & Analysis Software
Natoli AIM™ Pro saves time by getting tablet data results from even minor formulation changes during the research and development process. This tried and proven software can generate data from a single tablet, allowing use of a minimum amount product formulation.
Compression force, ejection force, and other tablet data is collected directly from the NP-RD10A tablet press to the Natoli AIM™ Pro software database. Users can then plot tableting and formulation characteristics in order to eliminate or mitigate potential tableting deficiencies.
Natoli AIM™ Pro comes preloaded on a laptop for easy use and mobility to gather post compaction data and set up studies.
