Tablet Press Tooling

Dies and punches for every rotary tablet press brand — manufactured in Delhi, India since 1983

EMMKAY INDUSTRIES manufactures tablet press tooling — dies and punches — compatible with every major rotary tablet press brand in the world. Whether you operate Indian-made presses from Cadmach and Rimek, European presses from Fette and Korsch, or Japanese presses from Kikusui, our tooling fits your machine.

We have been manufacturing precision tablet press tooling at our factory in New Delhi, India since 1983. Each station on a rotary press holds one die, one upper punch, and one lower punch — we supply complete sets for turrets with 16 to 65 stations.

How do I know which tooling standard my press uses?

Check your press manual or the existing tooling installed in your machine. The die outer diameter tells you: 38.10mm = D tooling, 30.16mm = B tooling, 24mm = BB tooling. Read our tooling selection guide.
