The new XL 400
4 is available in two versions, as follows:
KORSCH XL 4004 SFP (Single-Function Platform)Offering a dedicated single-layer capability, the XL 400
4 SFP features an ergonomic, accessible design and the fastest changeover of any machine in its class. An exchangeable turret execution with internal lift device permits the production of any size tablet on a single machine. Designed with a 100 kN precompression column, a 100 kN main compression column, and an innovative compression dwell bar between the compression stations, the XL 400
4 SFP is rugged and robust. With a maximum press speed of 120 RPM, and an extended feeder length, the XL 400
4 SFP is geared for high-speed production with a maximum output of more than 300,000 tablets per hour.
KORSCH XL 4004 MFP (Multi-Function Platform)Offering single-layer, bi-layer, tri-layer, tablet-in-tablet, and microchip-in-tablet capability in a single machine, the XL 400
4 MFP can produce a tablet of any size, shape, and format. Its modular feeders, compression stations, and cam tracks allow the press to be reconfigured for all applications over the course of a normal changeover.
In single-layer mode, the XL 400
4 MFP is process-identical to the XL 400
4 SFP, and the two machines share common product contact parts and full turret interchangeability. The XL 400 platform also offers a comprehensive containment capability with fully integrated solutions for OEB 3, OEB 4, and OEB 5 applications.
All key components, including turrets, feeders, and cams, are fully interchangeable with 3rd generation XL 400 machines, permitting seamless integration at existing installations. The XL 400
4 SFP and MFP share an identical PLC-based control system and HMI environment with secure login, product recipe, electronic audit trails, and full network integration, including domain login, centralized product recipe and batch data storage, as well as transfer of all process parameters to a centralized SCADA or historian.
