3 The ECM is extremely easy and fast to remove from and re-insert in the machine.

• ECM removal/insertion procedure is semi-automatic.
• All components are exchanged together as one unit.

4 The inside of the tablet press remains absolutely clean and contamination free.

Moreover, it offers great accessibility for inspection and maintenance.

5 Cleaning and format change-over are performed OFF-LINE:

• The ECM is positioned on a trolley and transferred to a washing bay when it is ready to be cleaned. The ECM is then opened to expose the internal product surfaces; the surfaces are then cleaned and prepared for a new run.
• The tablet press itself requires absolutely no cleaning or format-change activities.
• OFF-LINE: The time required for cleaning and format change-over of the ECM is NO downtime to the tablet press. While one ECM is being cleaned, the Modul™ S is back in production with another ECM.
