tion with minimum time and energy
consumption. All Uni tec mixers are
suitable for vacuum operation, which
makes it possible to perform complex
processes, such as vacuum drying
after coating, in a single machine. An
optional chopper avoids the formation
of lumps. Options include spray systems
for adding fluids, double-jackets
for temperature control, electrically
heated lids and surfaces, and more.

will be
showcased at
Interphex (April
26-28; New
York, N.Y.).
Launched
last year at
Achema 2015,
the Modul Q
rotary tablet
press (photo)
features the company's Exchangeable
Compression Module (ECM). The
new version of the ECM is even more
convenient to use and offers a higher
level of containment performance.
With easier access for cleaning and
set-up operations and improved
functionality, the Modul Q also incorporates
the Exchangeable Die Disc,
which was only previously available
on the Performa P press. Operationally,
the Modul Q has a bigger pitch
diameter and, in terms of size, will be
positioned between the Modul P and
Modul S. The use of A-type tooling is
now possible, which allows 51 punch

Detect thunderstorms well before
the first lightning strikes
For many manufacturing
facilities,
thunderstorms can
play a significant
role in disrupting
operations from an
increased risk of ignition
due to static
electricity, as well
as lightning strikes
to the plant and
process equipment.
Many manufacturing and storagetransfer
processes have to be made
safe or halted completely when a
thunderstorm is in the vicinity as
part of the risk mitigation and safety
protocols onsite. Both cause loss
of productivity and efficiency for the
plant operators. The new BTD-300
