Key Features & Design Advantages

• Easy-Clean Layout: The "X" series framework isolates mechanical drive components from the compression zone. Its washdown-friendly design drastically reduces cleaning time and mitigates batch-to-batch cross-contamination risks.
• Double-Sided Production:  Dual-sided design with two separate feed hoppers and two compression stations, it processes and ejects two tablets per station turret revolution, allowing it to hit massive throughput rates exceeding half a million tablets an hour.
• Consistent Weight Control: Utilizes HATA's signature independent feeding and automated force monitoring to maintain uniform tablet density, hardness, and precise weight metrics even at top operational speeds.
