Johnson Matthey catalyst forming expert Bill Sengelow said: "I was initially introduced to the CPR-6 on the Dott Bonapace stand during an exhibition in Frankfurt last year.
"I had been searching for a tablet press that was compact in size and was suitable for small batch runs, and found the capabilities and specification of the CPR-6 were well suited to these requirements".
The Johnson Matthey Catalysts team in Billingham then began working with the UK's sole distributor for the Dott Bonapace range, Isopak.
Sengelow has replaced a number of older machines with a single CPR-6 unit and has been delighted with the results.
"We have seen a number of benefits since installing the CPR-6", he said.
"With the CPR-6 being a single station operation it produces very precise results every time.
"Furthermore, its simple construction means it is quick and easy to train staff in its operation".
Sengelow continued: "And not only have I been impressed with the CPR-6 itself, I have also been extremely satisfied with the level of service I received from Isopak and would be happy to recommend the company and its machines to others".
