EU tooling

Whether your tablet press operates according to EU tooling specifications or TSM tooling specifications, you are running a high powered tabletting machine that works within fine limits and produces outstanding results. Our range of EU specification punch and die sets are carefully selected to offer the best tablet compression tooling available for your machine. When you are working hard to keep up with demand, the last thing you need is unscheduled stoppages. Bringing minimal downtime, maximum production and exceptional quality, these EU tooling sets are an essential component in helping you meet your targets.

EU and TSM tooling specifications diverged for historical reasons, but what they both have in common are tight tolerances and the capacity for excellent performance when running smoothly. To ensure you get the best out of both these tabletting specifications, we have put together a range of superbly manufactured punch die sets, using select stainless steels that offer durability alongside corrosion resistance, and with scientifically designed heads that will give the efficient tabletting performance you demand. These dies all offer a high degree of resistance against chipping, flaking and degrading, and their advanced design helps guard against tablet lamination and capping.

Despite focussing on quality and performance, our ranges of EU style tooling have not neglected design considerations. Take a look at our range and you will find a terrific selection of geometric shapes and designs, of the sort that have strong consumer appeal. We can also custom manufacture dies to suit your exact specification and design requirement. And as you would expect, the surfaces on our dies mean you can work confidently with special finishes, such as film or enteric coatings.

EU Punch and Die Sets in Use

Your tabletting production is fast and efficient, and you have a full order book with customers waiting. The last thing you need is to spend time worrying about changing your punch dies. So it is good to know that whether you use the EU punch die specifications or the TSM punch die specifications, our moulds are all top class pieces of equipment that will serve you well throughout their working life. Solidly crafted, using high quality stainless steel and the latest design principles, these dies inspire confidence the moment you pick them up and examine them. Whichever specification your machine uses, our dies will be a perfect fit with that special ‘feel’ about them that tells you everything is going to work just fine.

Like all tabletting punch and dies, they need a little care, keeping away from moisture, and a thorough cleaning when the job is done. In return, they will reward you with astonishing quantities of neat, cleanly pressed tablets with tremendous consumer appeal.

Check with your tablet press manual whether you need B tooling, D tooling, BB tooling or DB tooling. If you are at all uncertain about your requirements, please check with us first before placing the order. If your machine is from us, there should be no problem. If you did not buy from us, we will do all we can to help you clarify the tooling requirements.

Technical Specification and Availability

Your primary objective is for low tabletting production costs combined with the best possible quality. As an established international supplier with customers worldwide, we take pride in offering a comprehensive selection of top quality punch dies to suit all our customers’ needs. 

We try hard to hold each and every one of our EU style punch dies in stock at all times; but due to the incredible selection of shapes and sizes that we offer, and the unpredictable nature of customer demand, occasionally we may be out of stock of a particular item. Some dies are only available to order. Where this applies, we can have them manufactured specially for you in as little as 8-12 weeks.

Whatever your tablet press tooling requirement, and whatever the urgency, it is always worth your while getting in touch to see how we can help.
