The invention concerns a die insertion tool (100) for inserting a die (550) into a die pocket (552) of a press (500), the tool (100) includes a barrel (102) shaped for positioning the tool (100) within a punch guide bore (582) of the press (500), a tip (106) for insertion into a die cavity (556) of the die (550), and a collar (104) located between the barrel (102) and the tip (106) and configured to contact the die (550) when the tip (106) is inserted in the die cavity (556). The invention further concerns a kit (700) for a press (500) and a method for inserting a die (550) into a die pocket (552) of a press (500).

An apparatus includes a first electrode exhibiting a first Seebeck coefficient, a second electrode exhibiting a second Seebeck coefficient greater than the first Seebeck coefficient, and particles between the first and second electrodes exhibiting a third Seebeck coefficient between the first and second Seebeck coefficients. An alternating current power supply is electrically connected to the first and second electrodes. Heat is generated due to the Peltier effect at a junction between the first electrode and the particles and at a junction between the second electrode and the particles. Heat is removed due to the Peltier effect at the junction between the first electrode and the particles and at the junction between the second electrode and the particles. The particles are densified due to heating and cooling phase transitions between a higher-temperature solid phase and a lower-temperature solid phase while compressing the particles.

A die having a cavity and a lower punch fitted into the cavity. The cavity is divided and the parts slide along a division plane passing through the cavity parallel to the fitting direction of the die and the lower punch. The divided cavity parts are placed in a state of alignment along the division plane. The divided cavity parts are each filled with raw material powder. The die and the lower punch are then slid along the division plane, whereby the divided cavity parts are combined as the original cavity. The raw material powder in the cavity in a combined state is compressed by an upper punch and the lower punch.

Disclosed is an incinerator fly-ash pelletization method that concentratively arranges incinerated garbage fly ash inside a supporting member, and uses upper and lower molding members that are respectively provided with upper and lower pressing forces of different magnitudes to press and mold the incinerated garbage fly ash into a fly-ash pellet having a rounded projection portion on each of upper and lower surfaces thereof for reuse in a subsequent stage. The rounded projection portion functions to separate multiple fly-ash pellets that are stacked together to facilitate complete combustion, so as to effectively reduce environmental pollution and realize the purposes of recycling and reusing waste resources and improving economic values. The apparatus includes an apparatus chassis, and upper and lower hydraulic cylinders are arranged in the apparatus chassis to respectively connect to the upper and lower molding members that are each provided, at a central portion, with an arc-form shallow trough.

A tablet press comprises a gate that defines a first switching position that feeds tablets into a first tablet outlet and at least a second switching position that feeds tablets into at least one second tablet outlet. The table press further comprises a control apparatus and a drive apparatus. The drive apparatus is configured to be actuated by the control apparatus to move the gate from a home position defined as one of the first switching position and the at least a second switching position into a target position defined as a switching position that is not the home position. The gate is moved from the home switching position at a speed of movement toward the target position such that the speed of movement of the gate is reduced before the target position is reached.

A system for continuously processing pulverulent products includes at least two system inlets for pulverulent products. A mixer is provided that continuously mixes the pulverulent products received at a mixer inlet into a product mixture that is dispensed at a mixer outlet. A production machine having a filling apparatus continuously processes the product mixture from the mixer outlet into end products dispensed at the machine outlet. A conveyor apparatus conveys the product mixture from the mixer outlet to the machine inlet. The conveyor apparatus includes a first fill level sensor that measures a product mixture fill level in the filling apparatus of the production machine and a second fill level measures a product mixture fill level in a conveyor reservoir. A control apparatus receives measurement data from the first fill level sensor and the second fill level sensor and controls at least one production parameter based on the measurement data.

An object is to provide a tablet manufacturing apparatus capable of supplying an IC chip to a desired position of pharmaceutical powder with a high accuracy and suppressing a positional displacement. The IC chip is supported by a positioning guide with a chip main body in a downward manner, and is held in a state of being positioned above pharmaceutical powder filled in a die hole before compression. The IC chip is supplied by a pusher.
