De-Jamming the TDP 6s

There are several reasons why a TDP 6s

might jam such as:

• The ﬁll depth is set too low and the pressure is set too high.

• There is a build up of powder sticking to the Tooling.

• Any powder buildup on the machine can cause tablets to eject backwards and not forwards,

creating potential for a double tablet becoming stuck in the Die’s bore.

Tools and Materials Needed

• Set of metric Allen keys with ball ends

• Disposable latex/rubber gloves (for food grade products and to protect hands from grease)

• Hairnet and/or beard net (food grade products only)

• Sterile shoe covers (food grade products only)

WARNING: To prevent any potential personal injury, ALWAYS unplug the TDP 6s

before de-jamming it.

Instructions

Note: Wear latex/rubber gloves (and appropriate food grade attire if applicable) during this

process.
