Air Driven Tablet Deduster

The AC Compacting Air Driven Tablet Deduster is designed to continuously remove dust, “flashing” and burrs from tablets exiting a tablet press, and can be used to polish capsules.

Principal of Operation

Tablets continuously fall from a tablet press, capsule filler, or some other type of equipment into the infeed hopper of the tablet deduster. A deduster brush (either spiral or parallel bristle pattern) is situated inside the horizontal, cylindrical brush housing of the tablet deduster. The end of the deduster brush (located over the discharge outlet of the deduster) is magnetically coupled to the compressed air driven motor. The magnetic coupling also serves as a safety overload to prevent damage to the air motor if the brush becomes jammed
