been completed, the solid formed or
transformed product is removed from
the belt. At this stage, the product will
be either in final or intermediate form;
the latter requiring further processing,
such as post-drying, leaching or
stretching. Key benefits include ultraefficient
continuous production, the
ability to cast very thin films to fine
tolerances and producing high-quality
microporous membranes. A pilot filmcasting
line with a Venturi dryer module
and a conventional impingement-dryer
section is available for customer trials
at the company's productivity center in
Fellbach, Germany. The unit features
a winding and unwinding unit and is
capable of handling water- or solventbased
casting solutions. Hall 4.0,

A flexible tablet press for
laboratory-scale test runs
The TPR 200 Plus tablet press (photo)
offers efficient processing for various
granules and pellets. It also features
a light containment concept
with dust-tight machine protection
up to Occupational Exposure Band
(OEB) 3. Besides the production of
small and medium-sized batches,
the compact system supports the
development
of continuous
tablet
production. When combined with the
company's Solidlab 2 Plus system,
the TPR 200 Plus is particularly suitable
for laboratory-scale test runs and
subsequent scaleup. The automatically
adjustable powder feeder with
automated process-development
software allows users to define the
optimal parameters for the formulation
feed going into the die. The new
system also allows users to improve
existing processes and increase the
product yield and quality in tablet production.
Process efficiency benefits
from an integrated data-acquisition
system, which assesses tablet quality
and process stability. Hall 3.1, Stand

Mastering the
challenges of
metal dusting
VDM®
Alloy 699 XA (2.4842 / N06699) is a newly developed
high-temperature nickel alloy for application under metal
dusting conditions. The material features excellent pitting
resistance, creep resistance and weldability under argon.
VDM®
Alloy 699 XA is available in all standard semi-finished
product forms and as powder for additive manufacturing.
The use of VDM®
Alloy 699 XA offers new technical possibilities
while at the same time reducing maintenance costs. If you
want to learn more about material characteristics and applications,
