Abstract

A rotary tabletting machine with a housing, with a matrix disk in the housing, which in an upper and a lower receiving section guides the upper and lower punch, with an upper and lower cam carrier ring rotationally rigid relative to the housing, for control of the upper and lower punch and with an upright drive shaft, below the matrix disk, driven by a rotational drive and releasably connectable to the matrix disk, wherein the matrix disk and the cam carrier rings with the upper and lower punch after release from the connections as an assembly may be commonly removed from the drive shaft, whereby the cam carrier rings laterally in each case are connected to at least one arm and the arms via an upright connection section are rigidly connected to one another and the connection section is releasably couplable to the housing such that it is secured against rotation.
