This Manesty Betapress is a used rotary tablet press — also known as a tablet compression machine — designed to compress powder or granulated material into uniform tablets at high output rates. Manesty is a well-established British manufacturer with a long history of supplying tablet press equipment to the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries, and the Betapress is one of their recognised rotary press models. This example, carrying serial reference 57 U 1/69/D, is located in Barneveld, Netherlands, and is offered in used condition.
The press is equipped with 16 stations and accepts tooling up to a maximum tablet diameter of 5/8 inch (approximately 15 mm), with a filling depth of 0.626 inches. At full speed, the machine is rated for a capacity of up to 90,000 tablets per hour, making it well suited to medium-volume production runs. A variable speed drive is fitted, allowing the operator to adjust output rate to suit the formulation and tooling in use. Punching dies are included with the machine.
Power is supplied at 230 volts, and the unit is fitted with both a switch and switchgear for safe electrical operation. The press is mounted on its own frame and is accompanied by a hopper for material feed. Construction materials are specified as silicon steel 1.5023 and stainless steel 1.4552, the latter being a grade commonly associated with contact parts in pharmaceutical equipment.
The machine has a compact footprint of 0.7 × 1.20 metres and stands 1.80 metres in total height, making it practical for installation in facilities where floor space is limited.
