Traditional tablet production is efficient for large volumes, but it’s costly and time-consuming for clinical trial drug manufacture. 3D printing will make it simpler, faster and less expensive. Large-scale tablet production as we know it today was invented in the late 19th century. Although the machinery has, of course, become more modern, the manufacturing process has hardly changed and is still based on the compression of powders and granules….
