Popis: Dwell time mainly depends on punch geometry, so some tableting problems such as capping and lamination could occur at high speed compaction. Robust tools are required to monitor the interaction of punch tip and powder bed at these high speeds. Our aim was to investigate the effect of punch geometry (flat and standard concave) on powder compaction at high speed using radial die-wall pressure (RDWP) as a monitoring tool. Instrumented die guided by compaction simulation was applied for five materials with different compaction behaviors. Flat-faced punch showed higher residual, maximum die-wall pressures, and axial stress transmission than concave punches, p
