Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus for forming moldings from a moldable mass.
- the device comprises a die grid, in which at least one receiving space is formed, and at least one tool, with which the moldable mass in the receiving space is compressible.
- the invention relates to a method for forming moldings, in which a moldable mass is formed, is supplied to at least one receiving space of a die grid and is then pressed by at least one tool.
- rotary tabletting machines for example, the mass to be formed, which is in the form of bulk material, is fed via a fixed filling device into a likewise fixed die table, into which receiving space (dies) the bulk material is filled.
- receiving space dies
- Above and below the receiving space stamp are arranged, which are guided for pressing the bulk material over an upper and a lower pressure roller.
- the pressure rollers By the pressure rollers, the stamp are moved towards each other, whereby initially a rising and after exceeding the vertex, a falling pressure is exerted on the bulk material, whereby it is compressed into a tablet.
- a conventional rotary tableting machine for example, in DE 37 14 031 A1 described.
- a disadvantage of known tabletting machines is that the time interval during which the pressure required for pressing is exerted on the moldable mass is limited. For many applications, it is desirable to extend the so-called pressure hold time. This is possible with conventional tableting machines only with a small time window.
- the calendering process with two calender rolls is further developed by a so-called chain calender, as described in US Pat EP 0 358 105 B1 is described.
- this chain calender the still deformable strand of the extruder is between two partially on the lateral surface contacting, in opposite directions and running parallel on the contact line bands or between a roller and a resting on a segment of the roll shell and pressed with this circulating belt into tablets.
- the shaping recesses are mounted in two or only in one of the circumferential shaping elements.
- this manufacturing method has the disadvantage that no specific mass adjustments can be made without bringing the individual doses considerably out of shape, because of the lack of lateral all-round guides.
- a method and an apparatus for producing a cooked sugar mass body in a mold are known.
- the sugar mass is poured into the mold in a flowable state and solidified in the mold.
- a stamp dips into the mold.
- Several forms are formed on an endless conveyor belt. Further, the punches also move to enter the molds from the open side and displace the moldable mass to form the desired shape.
- the tool is movable along a guideway, which has a shaping section in which the tools exert a constant pressure on the portion of the mouldable mass located in the receiving space over a distance.
- the device according to the invention can therefore be used, inter alia, in particular for molding masses which require a long pressure holding time. Namely, the maximum pressure of the tools can be exerted over the entire distance of the forming section of the guideway.
- this shaping section can be selected to be long enough to realize any desired pressure holding times.
- the residence time of the mass in the section at which it is compressed is thus also adjustable.
- the tool is mounted in a tool carrier.
- the tool carrier is held in the guideway via a slotted guide.
- at least one tool carrier along the guideway at least partially runs on guide rollers, wherein at least in the forming section of the guideway, the guide rollers can be adjusted in terms of their distance to another tool carrier.
- a molding pressure can be adjusted according to the mass properties to be molded.
- the volumes to be set of the different masses to be pressed are adjusted by means of the height-adjustable die grid. In this way, it is very easy to adjust the volume to be compressed in the receiving space of the die grid. In the method according to the invention, it is thus possible to realize an online change of the administration forms with regard to the metering.
- the shaping section of the guide track preferably runs in a straight line. In this way, particularly high injection pressures can be realized.
- a further second tool for the at least one receiving space can be guided from the opposite side of the first tool into the receiving space. In this way, the moldable mass can be pressed in the receiving space from two sides.
- the die grid in particular a plurality of receiving spaces is formed, each of which a first tool and a second tool are assigned.
- the first tools and / or the second tools may be mounted in a respective tool carrier. They are particularly secured floating in the tool carrier.
- the tools can be cooled and / or heated in particular for certain moldable masses.
- a separate guideway is provided in each case for the tool carrier of the first tools and the tool carrier of the second tools.
- a cooling section of the guideway in which cool the pressed moldings in the die grid.
- the cooling section is preferably also formed by a straight path of the guideway.
- the cooling time can be adjusted. It can be chosen a very long cooling time, so that even moldings with complicated geometries can be easily removed from the mold when carrying out thermal processes. Furthermore, it is often necessary for pharmaceutical moldings that long cooling times are realized in order to counteract any residual stresses in the moldings.
- a sampling station for removing one or more moldings can be arranged, which can be fed to a quality control.
- a removal and camera inspection station for removal and examination of the moldings, a cleaning station and finally a shaping space coating device can be arranged, in which the parts of the device which come into contact with the moldable mass, cleaned and coated to prevent buildup.
- the tool cleaning and the molding space coating can be carried out continuously during the ongoing production process.
- an online control during the ongoing manufacturing process and an online mass correction of the moldings are possible.
- an online 100% visual inspection using a camera and online NIR for various analytical data collections is possible.
- the tool carrier is coupled via a telescopic arm with a rotatable drive unit, so that the tool carrier can be guided over a closed curve.
- the drive unit may be the only driven unit of the device according to the invention.
- a telescopic arm is provided in each case for the tool carrier of the first tools and the tool carrier of the second tools.
- the telescopic arm or the telescopic arms can in particular be mounted so as to be pivotable about an axis tangential with respect to the rotation of the drive unit.
- the length of the telescopic arm is variable.
- the tool carrier is in this case coupled via a horizontal / vertical two-axis fork joint with the telescopic arm. In this way, the tool carrier can move radially along the guide track toward the drive unit or away from the drive unit.
- the tool carrier can be pivoted upwards and downwards in a horizontal plane of rotation.
- a malleable mass is understood to mean any mass which changes its shape under the action of a force.
- powdered bulk materials can be supplied to the matrix grid.
- the bulk material is e.g. filled via a known filling device in the receiving spaces of Matrizengitters.
- the filling device may be e.g. to act a powder distribution system for the uniform discharge of flowable, moldable, powdery bulk materials, in which the bulk materials are continuously fed. It is possible with the device according to the invention in particular to compress polymer granules with high restoring force to moldings. Because of the adjustable shaping time for the molding process, the device according to the invention can preferably be used for processing flowable and shapable powdered bulk goods, e.g. in the pharmaceutical, food, cosmetics and hygiene industries.
- the moldable mass may be a melt ribbon.
- the device may in particular comprise an extruder, wherein the melt ribbon is continuously fed to the die grid.
- a forming station for smoothing and aligning a melt strand ejected from the extruder to the melt ribbon is arranged between the extruder and the die grid.
- the width of the melt belt can be so be shaped so that it corresponds to the width of the matrix grid.
- the thickness of the melt ribbon can thereby be adjusted so that the weight of the individual portions of the mass is adjusted.
- the melt ribbon may comprise several layers of different composition.
- the extruder can be designed in particular for two- or three-component extrusion, wherein the various components can be in different sequences to each other.
- films and moldings with a product sequence ABA or ABCBA can be formed.
- product sequences may be used for the manufacture of medical products, e.g. used in the manufacture of lingual and sublingual slides / tablets as well as transdermal patches. Such products can be very easily produced on the device according to the invention.
- the apparatus of the invention may further comprise a displacement barrier for portioning the moldable mass movable toward the die grid, the displacement barrier comprising side boundaries corresponding to side boundaries defining the receiving spaces of the die grid.
- the side boundaries of the displacement bulkhead are aligned with the lateral boundaries of the matrix grid.
- the thickness of the side boundaries of the die grid corresponds in particular to the thickness of the side boundaries of the displacement partition.
- the side boundaries of the displacement bulkhead and the side boundaries of the die grid may have end surfaces that at least partially abut when the displacement barrier and the die grid are fully moved toward each other.
- the respective end faces have in particular the same geometry.
- the matrix grid may comprise a square, rectangular, diamond-shaped or circular grid.
- the same grid is then formed by the side boundaries of the displacement bulkhead, so that the end faces each match.
- the transition from the end faces to the side boundaries of the die grid and / or the displacement partition can in particular be rounded or bevelled.
- the tool can be guided from the side boundaries of the displacement bulkhead into the receiving space.
- the displacement bulkhead can thus fulfill a dual function. On the one hand, it serves to portion the moldable mass. On the other hand, it serves as a guide for the tool.
- the displacement bulkhead can be coupled to the tool carrier for the first tools.
- the displacement bulkhead is in particular movable relative to the tool carrier against the force of at least one spring.
- a moldable mass is formed and fed to at least one receiving space of a die grid. At least one tool then presses a portion of the moldable mass in the receiving space by moving the tool along a guideway is having a forming portion, in which the tool is applied a constant pressure on the portion located in the receiving space of the moldable mass on a route.
- the route is in particular a straight stretch.
- a further second tool for the at least one receiving space is preferably guided from the opposite side of the first tool into the receiving space.
- the pressure in the receiving space of the die grid is then exerted by the first tool and the second tool.
- a tool carrier can be provided which is guided in each case on a separate guide track.
- the molded articles cool in the die grid after the pressing. After cooling, a molding or several moldings can be removed for inspection.
- the device comprises an extruder 1, with which a moldable mass can be formed. From the nozzle of the extruder 1, the moldable mass is transferred to a rotating mechanical system in which the moldings are formed.
- the basic structure of this rotating mechanical system will be explained below.
- a rotatable drive unit 2 is provided, are attached to which radially outwardly extending telescopic arms 5. At the radially outer ends of the telescopic arms 5 forming units 4 are attached.
- a molding unit is composed of an upper part 4A and a lower part 4B. Both for the upper part 4A and for the lower part 4B a telescopic arm 5A and 5B is provided.
- the telescopic arm 5A for the upper part 4A and that 5B for the lower part 4B of the forming unit 4 are arranged vertically one above the other vertically.
- the drive unit 2 thus comprises in an upper horizontal plane the telescopic arms 5A for the upper part 4A of the forming unit 4 and in a lower horizontal plane the telescopic arms 5B for the lower part 4B of the forming unit 4.
- the telescopic arms 5 with the forming units 4 are thus of the Drive unit 2 is moved substantially in an upper and a lower horizontal plane.
- the shaping units 4 are guided on a guideway 3.
- the guideway 3 describes a closed curve with straight sections A and B (FIG. Fig. 2 ) and a semicircular portion disposed opposite to the sections A and B. So that the shaping units 4 can be guided by a rotation of the drive unit 2 on this guideway 3, the radial length of the telescopic arms 5 is variable.
- the guide track 3 can also change the position of the shaping units 4 in the vertical direction.
- the telescopic arms 5 can perform a vertical pivoting movement, ie a pivoting movement about axis, which is parallel to a tangential with respect to the rotational movement of the drive unit 2 axis.
- the telescopic arms 5 can thus be moved horizontally by the drive unit 2, wherein they can perform vertical pivoting movements during this movement, the paths being predetermined by the guide track 3.
- a forming section A in which the guide track 3 extends on a straight line.
- the shaping section A is adjoined by a cooling-down section B, which can also run on a straight path.
- the guideway 3 changes its direction in a 90 ° bend and feeds the forming units 4 at the section C to a sampling station 6.
- the guideway 3 describes a semicircle on which the forming units 4 are fed at a section D of a blank removal and camera inspection station 7, at section E of a cleaning station 8 and at section F of a forming space coating device 9. The individual stations and facilities of these sections will be described later in detail.
- the forming units 4 After the forming units 4 have left the forming space coating device 9, they are guided back to the forming section A via a 90 ° bend. Since the closely arranged forming units 4 in this constellation can not perform over its diagonal away a curve movement, evasive travel curves are formed for the guideway, which in the following with reference to the Fig. 3 to 5 be explained:
- the Fig. 3 shows an upper guide track 3A for the upper part 4A of the forming unit 4 and a lower guide track 3B for the lower part 4B of the forming unit 4.
- Fig. 3 2 the movement apart of the upper and lower parts 4A and 4B of the molding unit 4 is shown.
- Fig. 4 shows the collapse of the respective parts of the molding unit 4.
- the upper guide track 3A and the lower guide track 3B each share again in an upper and lower part, on each of which alternately the two parts of the shaping unit 4 are supplied.
- the control is carried out via points, which causes the diversion into the respective travel curve.
- Fig. 5 Fig. 12 is a side view showing the movement of the upper telescopic arm 5A for the upper part 4A of the forming unit 4 and the lower telescopic arm 5B for the lower part 4B of the forming unit 4.
- a per se known extruder 1 can be used.
- the design of the extruder 1 depends on the mass that is to be processed in the extruder 1.
- the masses to be processed may be intended for use in the pharmaceutical industry, in the food industry, as well as in the cosmetics and hygiene industries.
- a plastic melt is produced, which is ejected in the extruder die 10 as a melt strand 11.
- the melt strand 11 can be formed from only one melt.
- it is also possible to form a multilayer melt strand 11 which comprises, for example, two components A and B in three layers of the sequence ABA.
- the extruder 1, as in Fig. 7 shown to be three-component extrusion in five plies of sequence ABCBA.
- the melt strand 11 ejected from the extruder die 10 is fed to a forming station 13, in which counter-rotating rolls 12A and 12B smooth the melt strand 11 into a melt ribbon 14. Furthermore, in the forming station 13, the width of the melt belt 14 can be set exactly. The width of the melt belt 14 depends on the width of the die grid 19, as will be explained later. The width is created by taperedêtsleitbleche. Corresponding side-prone preform prisms 12B take on the task of mass reduction on the sides of the melt belt.
- the 8B to 8D show the interaction of the rollers 12A and 12B of the molding station and the molding of the melt strand 11 to the melt belt 14 after the material emerges from the nozzle 10.
- the roll and prism movements can be controlled depending on the volume and the density of the melt by means of software.
- the Ausformstation thus the thickness and the width of the melt strip from which the moldings are formed, adjusted exactly. This setting ensures that the masses of the individual blanks are always the same. Furthermore, the height and thus the mass of the molded article to be formed can be adjusted via the thickness of the melt belt 14. In the forming station, a precompression of the moldable mass takes place, which leads to a higher stability of the melt belt 14. The thickness of the melt belt 14 depends on the consistency of the melt, their density and the desired individual weights of the moldings to be produced therefrom.
- Fig. 8A As can be seen, the forming units 4 are guided on the guideway so that the upper part 4A of the forming unit 4 have approximated the lower part 4B of the forming unit 4 behind the forming station 13 for the melt of the extruder 1. They form in this shaping section A ( Fig. 2 ) a unit through which the moldings are formed from the melt belt 14.
- the forming unit 4 comprises a tool carrier 15 which is divided into an upper tool carrier 15A and a lower tool carrier 15B.
- the upper tool carrier 15A is fixed to an upper telescopic arm 5A
- the lower tool carrier 15B is fixed to a lower telescopic arm 5B.
- the telescopic arms 5A and 5B are arranged in a vertical plane parallel to each other. As already related to the Fig. 1 and 2 described, they are moved horizontally, where they can perform vertical pivoting movements corresponding to the guideway 3.
- the upper and lower tool carriers 15A and 15B are aligned with each other by guide rods 22. Guided by these guide rods 22, the upper and lower tool carriers 15A and 15B can be further moved toward each other.
- the upper and lower tool carriers 15A and 15B each include a plurality of guide pins 16A and 16B, respectively, which hold and guide the upper tool carrier 15A in two upper guide tracks 3A.

- the tools 18 are mounted on the securing rods 34 in the upper side of the lower tool carrier 15B.
- the die grid 19 is coupled via the height-adjustable link mechanism 46 to the lower tool carrier 15B.
- the matrix grid 19 includes receiving spaces 21, which are delimited from lateral boundaries 20.
- the lower openings of the receiving spaces 21 of the die grid 19 are closed by the tools 18 projecting into the receiving spaces 21. Since the volume of the receiving space 21 determines the volume of the molding to be formed and thus at a certain density and the mass or weight, the mass or the weight of the moldings can be adjusted via the height adjustment of the tools 18.
- FIG Fig. 23 A plan view of the die grid 19 is shown in FIG Fig. 23 shown.
- the rectangular grid structure can be seen, which is formed by the end face 45 of the die grid 19.
- the end faces 35 of the tools 18 can be seen, which protrude into the receiving spaces 21 and which are held over the securing rods 34 in the lower tool carrier 15B.
- bores for the guide rods 22 are provided in the matrix grid.
- the tools 17 move in the displacement bulkhead 38 and the tools 18 are located in the receiving spaces 21 of the die grid 19, the tools 17 are also referred to as displacement bulkhead-side tools and the tools 18 as die-side tools.
- the molding operation takes place on the straight stretch of the molding section A of the guide track 3 (FIG. Fig. 2 ).

How out Fig. 24A it can be seen, while the melt belt 14 comes on the top of the die grid 19, ie in particular on the end face 45, which is formed by the side boundaries 20 of the die grid 19, to rest.
- the melt strip 14 is thus located above the receiving spaces 21 of the die grid 19.
- the distance between the underside of the displacement bulkhead 38 and the top of the die grid 19 is initially greater than the thickness of the melt belt 14, so that this introduced between the die grid 19 and the displacement barrier 38 can be.
- the upper tool carrier 15A with the displacement bulkhead becomes 38 further lowered until the lower end face 40 of the displacement bulkhead 38 touches the upper surface of the melt belt 14.
- the portion 14A of the melt belt 14 located between the end face 45 of the die grid 19 and the end face 40 of the displacement bulkhead 38 is now displaced in the direction of the adjacent receiving spaces 21, as shown in FIGS Figs. 25A and 25B respectively.

- the side boundary 39 of the displacement bulkhead 38 has in particular the same thickness as the side boundary 20 of the die grid 19. Furthermore, the side boundaries 39 and 20 are aligned with one another. During the movement of the displacement bulkhead 38 in the direction of the die grid 19, the side boundaries 39 and 20 are aligned exactly parallel to one another.
- the upper tool carrier 15A further lowers with the tools 17, without the vertical position of the displacement bulkhead 38 being able to continue to change since it rests on the die grid 19.
- the tools 17 are thus moved in the openings of the displacement bulkhead 38.
- the side delimitations 39 of the displacement bulkhead 38 serve as a guide for the tools 17.
- the displacement bulkhead 38 thus serves as a guide chamber for the lowering tools 17 as well as an antechamber for the mass to be deformed.
- Fig. 27A shows the force distribution in the receiving space 21 during pressing.
- pressure is exerted by the tools 17 and 18 from above and below. From the side of the portions of the side boundaries 20 of the matrix grid 19 are enclosed. Since the same pressure is exerted on the lateral boundaries 20 by two adjacent receiving chambers 21, the forces applied to the lateral boundaries 20 cancel each other out. For this reason can the side boundaries 20 and thus also the side boundaries 39 of the displacement 38 are made very thin, whereby any residual portion of the melt belt 14, which is not compressed, can be kept extremely low.
- the pressure exerted by the tools 17 and 18 on the melt portions 14 can be selected depending on the moldings to be formed.
- a special feature of the device according to the invention is that the pressure holding time, i. the time interval at which the maximum pressure is exerted on the mass to be compacted, can be individually adjusted to the mass to be deformed and tuned to this.
- the pressure holding time can be chosen to be very long, in particular in comparison to conventional tableting machines. It is essentially determined by the rotational speed of the drive unit 2 and the length of the straight forming section A. If the forming section A is chosen to be very long, the maximum pressure exerted on the mass to be formed is maintained for a very long time.
- the cooling section B connects.
- the upper part 4A of the forming unit 4 with the upper tool carrier 15A is again removed in this section B in the vertical direction from the lower part 4B of the forming unit 4 with the lower tool carrier 15B.

- the vacuum blank removal unit 58 is pivoted between the upper tool carrier 15A and the lower tool carrier 15B so that vacuum pick-up tubes of the molding receiving head 59 are located immediately above the molds 57.
- the vacuum molding removal unit 58 has the same number of individually controllable vacuum hoses for receiving the moldings 57 as tools 18 and receiving spaces 21 are provided. The moldings are sucked in by the vacuum hoses and lifted off the die grid 19.
- the molding receiving head 59 is swung out of the molding unit 4 by means of the motor 62 and the shaft 61, whereupon the moldings 57 are deposited on a transparent conveyor belt 63.
- the moldings 57 of a camera inspection unit with an upper camera 64 and a lower camera 65 for examination of the top and bottom and the side edges of the moldings 57 are supplied.
- the entirety of the formed moldings 57 can be optically examined.
- the entire geometric shape of the moldings 57 can be examined.
- the moldings 57 can be examined without contact by means of infrared spectroscopy, in particular NIR spectroscopy. Since the geometric arrangement of the blanks on the conveyor belt 63 corresponds exactly to that in the die grid 19, conclusions may be drawn in the case of defective blanks 57 be detected on false production in Matrizengitter 19.
- the NIR spectroscopy works with the help of chemometric evaluation methods on the qualitative and quantitative analytical sorting of the good production 7A.
- the individual weights of the moldings 57 can be detected. Deviations from predetermined weight tolerances can be detected in this way and used to sort out faulty blanks. Furthermore, the weighing cell unit can transmit a controlled variable to the level control 31 and / or to the guide rollers, as already explained.
- the section E connects to the cleaning station 8, with reference to the Fig. 29 .
- 30A and 30B explains:
- a brush head receptacle 49 is attached, which has cleaning bristles 48 in the direction of the upper part 4A and the lower part 4B of the molding unit 4.

- compressed air 52 which is supplied via the pipe system 53A to the compressed-air nozzles 53B.
- the entire cleaning process is fully automatic and is integrated in the guideway 3.
- the cleaning station 8 may operate during ongoing operation of the continuously moving forming units 4.
- the cleaning station 8 may be equipped with different brushes, compressed air and suction devices. It is fully mobile in all three coordinate directions and equipped with proximity sensors and replacement units.
- the molding space coating device 9 comprises a pipe system 54, with which a coating fluid 56 or a coating powder (mold release agent) can be supplied.
- the coating fluid 56 or the coating powder exits at the nozzles 55.
- the number of nozzles 55 corresponds to the number of tools 17 and 18.
- the task of the molding space coating device 9 is to reduce or eliminate possible adhesion tendencies of the different materials to be processed in order to ensure a smooth production process.
- the parts of the device which come into contact with the mass to be processed, coated with the coating fluid 56 and the coating powder.
- the choice of coating fluid depends on the mass to be molded and the intended field of use of the moldings 57 to be formed.
- the forming units 4 for re-forming moldings are fed to the forming section A on the guide track 3.
- the moldable mass from which the moldings 57 are formed is not formed by extrusion technology. Rather, in this exemplary embodiment, the mouldable mass is a bulk material 14B of arbitrary composition.
- the bulk material 14B is in particular powdery, flowable and moldable. It may be, for example, a powdered granules.
- the device according to the invention can advantageously be used in particular for a bulk material 14B, for example, from the granule technology, which is very poorly deformable, since the pressure holding time in the device according to the invention can be set to a very long period.
- the displacement bulkhead 38 in the apparatus of the second embodiment could be omitted. Preferably, however, it still serves to guide the tools 17.
- the bulk material 14B is filled in the second embodiment by means of a per se known device, as used for example in conventional tableting machines, directly into the receiving spaces 21, as in Fig. 24B is shown.
- the device can be, for example, a powder distribution system for the uniform discharge of flowable, formable, powdery bulk materials 14B, in which the bulk materials 14B can be continuously fed.
- the pressing is carried out by the tools 17 and 18 (see. Fig. 27B ) and the further process steps, as described above.
- the resulting during the molding process pressure energy is transmitted over a longer period of time to the mass to be formed, ie a high pressure is exerted over a longer period of time on the mass to be formed, thereby the material-specific restoring forces of to counteract to be deformed masses.
- the pressure can be maintained even during the Auskühlabitess B by the upper part 4A and the lower part 4B of the forming unit 4 apart only after this Auskühlabites B apart. In this way, masses are held with increased elastic restoring forces until solidification or cooling in the plasticizing position.
