Technical Development Corporation, a Huntersville, North Carolina manufacturer of custom machinery for the fiber optic and medical industries, has shipped over 20 tablet dedusters to locations in the United States and Canada. 

The Deduster is a portable tablet-cleaning device, for use in pharmaceutical plants.  The simple design assures ease of use by plant personnel.  A minimal number of component parts are used in the sturdy construction.  The DeDuster is constructed primarily of 316L stainless steel.  Other materials are FDA approved. 

To allow for fast and easy assembly, components interlock.  That means no tools are required for set-up, operation or clean-up.  This also reduces time lost searching for the right tools.

The DeDuster thoroughly cleans tablets by sending them through a specially-designed stepped cleaning table.  As the tablets pass by the air assist and vacuum, they roll over continuously, completing the cleaning process.

Other DeDuster features:

• 3-leg base keeps machine level
• Window for visual inspection
• Physical inspection is easily achieved through swinging lid
• Compact entry and exit heights allow for use of large totes
• Only a light pull on release handle needed to remove Upper section from machine
• Easy height adjustment through gas strut
• Main cover held in place with thumb screws for easy removal
• Motor section can be removed from base by removing one pin
• 115 volts, 60 Hertz

At only 98 pounds, the DeDuster is easily moved from one room to another, using two straight casters and one retractable swivel caster.

TDC Introduces Powdermaster Line

Technical Development Corporation, a Huntersville, North Carolina equipment manufacturer, announces new developments in powder application machinery.

The new Powdermaster is based on the highly successful Chalkmaster machine which has sold over 300 units worldwide.  The existing, patented powder application technology of the Chalkmaster has been incorporated into a new design which includes two improvements suggested by our customers.

The Powdermaster introduces a flip top door.  Chalkmasters require the use of a special tool to feed the product through them.  The flip top door of the Powdermaster allows the product to be laid in, a great advance in ease of use.

The Powdermaster also has a much larger powder hopper.  The Chalkmaster's powder hopper cannot hold an entire bag of powder, requiring the use of a scoop.  The Powdermaster's hopper has enough capacity that an entire bag can be poured in, requiring less effort and providing a cleaner environment since less powder will be spilled.

North American customers can purchase the Powdermaster directly from TDC. Contact Sales Engineer Irv Baston at (770) 537-4685 for information. For service and parts, contact David Mason at (704) 875-1198, extension 22.  Existing international Chalkmaster agents will continue to represent TDC in the sale of Powdermasters.  TDC also seeks new agents for areas not currently represented.  Click here to learn more about Powdermaster.
