While automation has become highly prevalent within the pharmaceutical industry, manual labor is often still required to move, clean, or maintain equipment. Each manual touchpoint endured by a piece of equipment poses risk of human error, which could result in damage to press components, such as punches.

At Fette Compacting America, our proprietary box system embodies our TRI.EASY principle, mitigating the risks posed by manual handling and ensuring that tooling can be handled or moved safely and efficiently. Our TRI.EASY design method implements a full 360° ease of functionality into all of the equipment we manufacture. The TRI.EASY design method covers the three aspects of equipment—changeover, operation and maintenance, ensuring that each of these processes is as simple as possible for the end user.

Optimal tablet quality is directly proportional to the quality of tablet punches. Unfortunately, punches are prone to surface damage from the minor impacts or shocks which can occur during cleaning, maintenance, or movement in and out of storage.

Fette Compacting’s TRI.EASY Tool Case System is the first comprehensive solution to address this problem. Our patent-pending case solution protects components during each step of the tool handling process. With fewer handling steps and an ergonomic design, our case system also mitigates injury risks for machine operators.
