How does a pill making machine work?

How does it work?

The process is simpler than it seems. Here are the basic steps:

1. Powder preparation
   First, a dry, homogeneous mixture of the active ingredient and excipients (such as starch or cellulose) is needed.

   Tip: Make sure the powder is finely ground for better compaction.

2. Loading the powder into the machine
   In manual models, the exact amount is poured into a cavity or mold.

3. Compression
   Manual pressure (or automatic if the machine is electric) is applied to compress the powder inside the mold, forming the tablet.

4. Ejection of the tablet
   Once compacted, the tablet is ejected in a controlled manner. It's ready for use or packaging.
