Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Messung der vertikalen Position von einem drehbar angetriebenen Rotor (12) einer Rundläufer-Tablettenpresse paarweise zugeordneten und synchron mit dem Rotor (12) rotierenden Ober- und Unterstempeln (18,20), die während einer Rotorumdrehung in bestimmten Bereichen entlang des Umfangs ihrer Drehbewegung eine vertikale Bewegung ausführen. Die Vorrichtung weist mindestens einen an mindestens einem der Ober- und/oder Unterstempel (18,20) angeordneten, parallel zur vertikalen Bewegungsrichtung des jeweiligen Ober- und/oder Unterstempels (18,20) verlaufenden Maßstab (54), und mindestens eine dem Maßstab (54) zugeordnete, ebenfalls synchron mit dem Rotor (12) rotierende Leseneinrichtung (56) auf, mit der eine vertikale Position des jeweiligen Ober- und/oder Unterstempels (18,20) durch Auslesen des Maßstabs (54) messbar ist. Die Erfindung betrifft außerdem eine entsprechende Rundläufer-Tablettenpresse und ein entsprechendes Verfahren.

The invention relates to a device for measuring the vertical position of a rotatably driven rotor (12) of a rotary tablet press paired and synchronously with the rotor (12) rotating upper and lower punches (18,20) during a rotor rotation in certain areas perform a vertical movement along the circumference of their rotary motion. The device has at least one scale (54) arranged on at least one of the upper and / or lower punches (18, 20) and parallel to the vertical movement direction of the respective upper and / or lower punch (18, 20), and at least one of the scale (54) associated, also in synchronism with the rotor (12) rotating reading means (56), with a vertical position of the respective upper and / or lower punch (18,20) by reading the scale (54) is measurable. The invention also relates to a corresponding rotary tablet press and a corresponding method.
