On prolonged usage, punches & dies, are likely to give rise to the following problems:

Excessive weight variation

Tablet hardness variation

Excessive powder seepage from lower punch or collar formation

Bending of small size punch tips caused by excessive compression pressure

These problems need to be adhered to in due time to avoid excessive damage later on. Our inspection kit can be used to identify the inconsistencies in tooling. We can check the following parameters:

Working height uniformity of all punches

Punch tip & body diameter

Punch tip to body concentricity

Die OD & Height

Die bore go / no-go status
