A flow speed control plate is provided for use in combination with a die for forming a monolith. The flow speed control plate includes: a base plate having both a clay supply surface and a clay outflow surface that is to be superposed on a clay inflow surface of the die; clay flow holes which each penetrate the base plate and through which the clay flows from the clay supply surface to the clay outflow surface; and a positioning mechanism provided to position the flow speed control plate with respect to the die so that each of the clay flow holes of the flow speed control plate has its central axis arranged coaxially with a central axis of a corresponding one of clay inflow holes of the die. Moreover, a diameter of the clay flow holes is set to be smaller than a diameter of the corresponding clay inflow holes.

A multi-chamber pellet die system to improve and increase analysis pellet manufacturing capabilities by allowing for multiple pellets or biomaterial scaffolds to be fabricated simultaneously.

The manufacturing method includes a granulation step. The granulation step is a step of forming a plurality of granules by performing extrusion granulation on a granulation material using a granulation machine. The granulation machine includes a die and a roller. A through hole that allows the granulation material to pass therethrough is formed in the die. The roller pushes the granulation material into the through hole while rolling on the surface of the die. In the granulation step, low-speed pushing in which the granulation material is pushed while the roller rolls at a first speed, and high-speed pushing in which the granulation material is pushed while the roller rolls at a second speed that is higher than the first speed are executed.

Various embodiments for an automated pellet press for automatically producing pharmaceutical pellets are disclosed herein.

The method for producing carbon nanotube pellets according to the present invention can reduce the particle size of the carbon nanotubes contained in the pellet by a repetitive extrusion process to produce pellets having improved dispersion characteristics in a solvent. The present invention can improve the problems of the change of the content generated by scattering of powders and safety issues by using carbon nanotubes in the form of pellet. And since the density of the pellet form is higher than that of the powder form, transport, transfer and improvement become easier. Therefore, it can be more effectively applied to the manufacturing of composite materials.

The carbon nanotube pellets according to the present invention are produced by using only a small amount of solvent and have increased apparent density. The present invention can improve the problems of the change of the content generated by scattering of powders and safety issues by using carbon nanotubes in the form of pellet rather than carbon nanotubes in the form of powder in composite materials. And since the density of the pellet form is higher than that of the powder form, transport, transfer and improvement become easier. Therefore, it can be more effectively applied to the manufacturing of composite materials.
