Oral Solid Dosage
Oral Solid Dosage
What Is OSD?
Oral Solid Dosage, commonly referred to as OSD, is one of the most widely used and preferred forms of pharmaceutical drug delivery. It encompasses all solid-form medications that are administered orally, including tablets, capsules, granules, and powders.
OSD formulations are the backbone of the global pharmaceutical industry, accounting for the majority of all medicines manufactured and consumed worldwide. For pharmaceutical manufacturers, OSD production demands a carefully controlled and sequenced manufacturing process, one that requires reliable, high-performance equipment at every stage. That is precisely where F Plus Healthcare comes in.Â
One connected OSD portfolio
Engineered around your process.
Four core equipment families, designed to support the journey from prepared powder to a precise, patient-ready dose.
Powder to process-ready granules
Granulation Equipment
F Plus granulation systems take you from raw powder to uniform, process-ready granules, with complete control at every step. Engineered for repeatable mixing, drying, milling, and material handling, our equipment is built for efficient changeovers, contained production, and dependable cGMP-compliant operation at any batch scale.
Precision in every compression cycle
Tablet Compression Machines
Rotary tablet presses engineered for R&D, pilot and commercial-scale production, with precise control across every compression cycle. Designed for flexible tooling and consistent performance, they support single-layer and multi-layer tablet applications while maintaining uniformity in weight, hardness and tablet quality.
Uniform coating with controlled outcomes
Autocoater
Automated coating systems designed for film, enteric and sugar coating applications, with precise control over spraying, airflow and process parameters. Built to handle varying batch requirements while delivering uniform coating, consistent coverage and repeatable results across production cycles.
Flexible filling & consistent dosing
Capsule Filling Machines
Capsule filling solutions designed to support R&D, semi-automatic and high-speed production across different manufacturing requirements. Flexible dosing systems handle powders, pellets, tablets, micro-tablets and combination fills, with precise filling and consistent output across production batches.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions before you begin?
Oral Solid Dosage manufacturing covers the controlled processing of pharmaceutical formulations into tablets or capsules. The process may include dispensing, granulation, drying, milling, blending, tablet compression or capsule filling, coating, and final packing.
F Plus provides granulation equipment, tablet compression machines, automatic coating systems, and capsule filling machines, along with supporting solutions for material handling and process integration.
Yes. F Plus offers equipment for feasibility and R&D batches, pilot-scale production, and commercial manufacturing. The right configuration depends on the formulation, required output, facility layout, and containment requirements.
Granulation helps improve powder flow, compressibility, content uniformity, and material handling. This supports more consistent feeding and compression during tablet production.
Yes. F Plus designs equipment around specific application and integration requirements. The engineering team can assess existing process stages, available space, and equipment interfaces to recommend a suitable line configuration.
Yes. Equipment configurations can incorporate cGMP-focused design along with relevant automation, control, and data-management options. Final requirements are evaluated based on the product, target market, and facility requirements.
The selection depends on factors such as formulation type, batch size, target output, containment requirements, available space, and level of automation. Share these requirements with the F Plus team to determine the right process and equipment configuration.
Yes. F Plus offers connected solutions across key OSD stages, including granulation, tablet compression, coating, and capsule filling, allowing equipment to be planned around the overall manufacturing process rather than as standalone machines. (F Plus Healthcare Technologies Pvt. Ltd)
