Dust cups are an optional accessory that provides a secondary barrier to the upper punch seals. This option prevents oil and other debris from contaminating granulation.
Dust cups are made with FDA-approved pharmaceutical-grade materials that are selected to meet specific requirements for stability, wear-resistance, cleaning, and flexibility. Dust cups are reusable and interchangeable. There are two styles of dust cups: barrel-style and standard.
Barrel-Style vs. Standard Dust Cups
Standard Dust Cups require manually cutting out a hole using the upper punch, and then fitting the dust cup to the upper punch tip.
Barrel-Style Dust Cups come with pre-cut holes and fit directly on the punch barrel. They can be used with or without upper punch dust cup grooves.
