For the surface part tooling, the profile should be cleaned to ensure the quality of the part.<\/li>\n<li>Lubricate the sliding parts of the tooling, apply grease, and check the tooling for damage and safety of the parts.<\/li>\n<li>Professional tooling personnel should use a torque wrench to confirm tooling screw and use a GO\/NO GO gauge to confirm tooling has no deformation. This is a vital step to ensure your compression tooling does not damage the tablet press turret which can accidentally introduce metal filings in compressed tablets.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Also, after production is completed, a comprehensive inspection, measurement, and recording of the tooling should be carried out, and the tooling should be thoroughly wiped to ensure the cleanliness and accuracy of the tooling.<\/p>\n<p>By following these 4 simple steps including regular lubrication of the tooling during storage and managing the compression tooling parts to identify any undue wear in the tooling, you can reduce the need for having to replace worn tooling.
