Title: Pill Presser What to look for?
Post by: cokeaddict on October 27, 2012, 01:48 am
I'm looking to purchase a pill presser.


What should I look for in one specification wise?

I want to use it for ecstasy pills but I don't want them to fall apart so what should I look for when purchasing one?

Sounds good to me I was planning to spend around 2k for one but that seems great.

It has enough pressure to make a good pill that will hold together right? I shouldn't be worried about it falling apart within the week or anything?

Also has anyone had any experience with one of these such as engraving and making custom dies because on the site it says that there custom dies don't fit that model but you could engrave it yourself not sure how but would be a nice read if anyone would want to explain.

Don't bother with a press unless your willing to spend upwards of 3500+ Anything worse than a tdp 6 will produce shit pills unless you have a custom motor. I set up a tdp 1 with a golf cart motor once it produced hard pills but their where constant problems with stalling and other things.
If you don't have experience working with electronics and machinery don't order from china. They have terrible quality control, I have ordered tones of presses from china to resell they always have issues.
Look for a reseller in the UK or the USA. Buy from an established seller

alright so the lfatablet press is not going to work I just saw the outcome and they look like tums after the pills pressed it doesn't even look like a normal x pill.


As for engraving it's going to have to be done in order to establish a reputation for that pill, blanks are just to much harder to sell.


So any suggestions on a pill press that's under 2k ?

TDP/lfa presses works fine.... Just because some one made a video of their shit pills only means they can't operate the press. The tdp 5 has like 50kn of force. If you set the fill depth correctly and the ejection height it produces good pills if you don't fix that stuff it wont compress tight. Theirs 10000s of companies in china also that will make custom dies.

yeh gotta have a tdp5+ or if you gotta get a tdp0-4 then  atleast upgrade the motor and try get a custom chain driver set of pulleys or it can stall up..............
