EXCIPIENT DILUENT BINDER LUBRICANT / ANTIADHESIVE & GLIDANT DISINTEGRANT COLOURING AGENT / FLAVOURING AGENT /
SWEETNING AGENT
5
DILUENT These are also known as bulking agent.These are
innert in nature.These are added to increase the bulk of tablet.
These are also add to improve the flow properties of drug.
EXAMPLE:-Lactose,Starch1500,Dicalcium Phosphate,Micro crystaline cellulose(MCC)
6
BINDER These are known as adhesive and are substance
that bind the powder together and make them into acompact mass or granules.
Example:- 1 Starch paste. 2 Acacia Solution.
7
LUBRICANT/GLIDANT/ANTI-ADHERENTLubricant-These reduce the friction B/w the
tablet edge and the wall of the dye and are require for ejection of tablet.
Example:-Magnesium sterate,Calcium sterateANTI-ADHERENT-These prevent the tablet
granuler form adhering to the punch surface and dye cavity.
Example-Talc 0.5 to 5%Glident-These facilitate the flow of granules
from hopper into the gye cavity by reducing friction. 8
COLOURING,FLAVOURING&SWEETNING AGENTColourin agent-These are add to improve
the allagent of product.Also for the identification.Or to mask the colour difference b/w of drug and excipient.
Water soluble die-saffron. Insoluble lake-Sunset yellow,Titanium dioxide. Flavouring and sweetning agent-they are
use to mass the unplesant taste of the drug and excipient.Flavour are usually in the form of oil which are spray on granules
EXAMPLE-Spray dry flovour,Mannitol, sucrose. 9

MACHINERY Single Punch Machine Rotary Tablet Machine
SINGLE PUNCH MACHINE:- The sigle punch machine has following component- ONE TOOLING SET A HOPPER A FEET SHOE A DYE FITTED IN A DYE TABLE A PAIR OF PUNCH
14 CAM FOR GUIDING OF MOVEMENT
OPERATION OF SINGLE PUNCH MACHINE
1)Filling Stage-The lower punch move down and the granules pass from hopper to dye cavity.
2)Compression Stage-Lower punch move upward and upper punch move downward provide a compression force to convert granules into tablet.
3)Ejection Stage-After compression the upper punch move upward and symantaniously the lower punch rise untill the tip of lower punch level the top of the dye.
15
ROATRY TABLET MACHINE The component of rotary tablet machine are:- MORE THAN ONE TOOLING SET A HOPPER A FEET FRAME A NUMBER OF DYE PAIR OF PUNCHES CAM TRACK
16
OPERATION OF ROTATING TABLET MACHINE 1)Filling Stage-The lower punch move down and
the granules pass from hopper to dye cavity. 2)Compression Stage-Lower punch move upward
and upper punch move downward provide a compression force to convert granules into tablet.
3)Ejection Stage-After compression the upper punch move upward and symantaniously the lower punch rise untill the tip of lower punch level the top of the dye.
17
TABLETING PROBLEM Picking-removal of material from surface of tablet by
upper punch. Sticking-adherence of tablet material to dye cavity wall. Capping-separation of top and bottom portion of tablet. Lamination-separation of tablet into two or more layer. Mottling-unequal distribution of colour on the tablet. Double impression
