Why LFA TDP 6s produces uneven tablets?
Uneven tablets from your LFA Power Tool are typically due to worn out Tooling. Check the ingredients of your formula before you replace the Die, Upper Punch, and Lower Punch.
What to do if my LFA TDP 6s Power Tool is making knocking sounds?
Knocking sounds from your LFA Power Tool can stem from several issues. The Upper and Lower Punches might be colliding with the Die; realign the Base Plate after loosening its bolts and then tighten them back. A slightly off Upper Drift Pin Assembly can also cause this; loosen the Base Plate bolts, rotate the machine until the Upper Punch aligns with the Die's bore, and then tighten the bolts. Check the V-belts and tighten the Motor Support Arm's nuts to adjust the V Belts (correct tension for run-in belt is [N] 92.47). Inspect the Pinion Gear and/or Cam Drive Cog for broken teeth and replace if necessary. Also, ensure there isn't powder buildup between the Lower Punch and the Die, and that the Lower Drift Pin Assembly has enough clearance.
How to fix inconsistent tablet weight with LFA TDP 6s Power Tool?
Inconsistent tablet weight in your LFA Power Tool can be caused by a loose Lower Drift Pin Assembly Locking Bar; ensure it is secured to the Lower Drift Pin Assembly and the Lower Drift Pin Assembly Cogs. Insufficient pressure can also be a factor; increase punch pressure by moving down the Pressure Adjustment to lower the Upper Drift Pin Assembly. Additionally, flowing issues with the mix can contribute to this problem; if the machine works with LFA's Firmapress®, adjust your formulation.
Why LFA Power Tool can’t compact materials to tablet form?
If your LFA Power Tool is unable to compact materials into tablet form, several factors could be at play. The Boot might be blocked, restricting material flow; check the Boot for clogs. Ensure the Boot Timing Bar is secured by tightening its nuts and bolt. Insufficient pressure can also prevent compaction; increase the punch pressure by moving down the Pressure Adjustment to lower the Upper Drift Pin Assembly. A broken Lower Punch will hinder compaction; remove the Lower Drift Pin Assembly to access and replace the Tooling. Ensure the Lower Drift Pin Assembly drops properly during filling, checking for powder buildup and adequate clearance. Finally, if the machine can make tablets with LFA's Firmapress®, adjust your mix formulation.
What to do if my LFA TDP 6s Power Tool has heavy resistance during production?
If your LFA Power Tool experiences heavy resistance during production, the high friction areas may be unclean, locked, worn out, or not properly greased. Apply grease to the Grease Nipple points and all high friction areas on the machine.
What causes shattered tablets in LFA TDP 6s?
Shattered tablets from your LFA Power Tool can be caused by the Boot Timing Bar and the Boot not being adjusted properly. Adjust the Boot Timing Bar by loosening/tightening its bolt and moving it.
Why powder sticks to the Lower Punch of LFA TDP 6s Power Tool?
If powder is sticking to the Lower Punch of your LFA Power Tool, there may be issues with the mix. Adjust your formulation. If still an issue, contact LFA for support.
How to fix cracked or broken tablets in LFA Power Tool?
Cracked or broken tablets from your LFA Power Tool often indicate problems with the formulation of the granules and ingredients. If the machine is able to make tablets with LFA's Firmapress®, then the problem is your mix. Adjust your formulation. If still an issue, contact LFA for support.
Why LFA Power Tool machine freezes or locks up?
Your LFA Power Tool machine might freeze or lock up due to several reasons. The grease point areas may be dry, requiring regular oiling and greasing of all Grease Nipple points. There might be excess pressure on the Upper Drift Pin Assembly, which can be resolved by rotating it counterclockwise. Loose V Belts can also cause this issue; tighten them by adjusting the Motor Support Arm's nuts to the correct tension (92.47 [N]). Finally, starting the press with the Upper Punch at a low point can cause freezing; adjust the starting position so the Upper Punch is at the highest point.
What causes double tablets with LFA TDP 6s Power Tool?
Double tablets in your LFA Power Tool can occur if a previous tablet did not eject correctly; remove the double tablet manually from the Die bore. Excess granular materials in the Die, preventing ejection of the existing tablet, can also cause this; clean the Tooling to remove any excess granular materials and ensure it is clean and completely dry.
