With glove ports and RTP ports in the tablet press doors and isolators (for ease of access so that containment is not compromised) the WIP system's main features include:
• All system aspects are contained in a single room.
• Elimination of bulky space suits and the need to open the system for parts removal prior to the wash cycle.
• Integration of flexible controls for wash down of all system components, including tablet press, charge system, and isolators. with no internal shrouds.

Featuring quieter, simplified operation, the new i-Series includes model numbers 1200i, 2090i, 3090i and the world's highest-output tablet press, the Fette 4090i. "With a maximum output of over 1.5 million tablets per hour; multiple tooling options from 32 to 113 stations and from 6mm to 59mm tablets; single-, double, and triple-layer production capability; and bi-layer (tablet in tablet) production with core insert, the 4090i is the flagship of Fette's new i-Series line and a prime example of some of the most advanced tableting technology on today's market," explained Derickson.
