[0020] 1. Equipped with a pressing assembly, a downward-moving electric push rod and a downward-moving fixed plate drive a metering feeder into the inner cavity of the rotary forming mold. Medicinal powder is injected into the rotary forming mold through the metering feeder. A rotary motor drives the rotary forming mold to rotate and change position, while a downward-moving hydraulic cylinder drives the forming die to move downward.

The processing hydraulic cylinder drives a fixed electromagnet and a lifting moving block to push the medicinal slices out of the rotary forming mold. An outward-moving electric push rod drives an outward-moving scraper to push the medicinal slices out. This allows for the dispersion of the feeding, discharging, and pressing positions during tablet production, reducing waiting time during feeding and discharging. Furthermore, the two pressing operations increase the pressing time, ensuring product compactness, improving product quality, and enhancing overall production efficiency.

An electric actuator moves the sealing cover to open and close the top and bottom of the electric drying chamber. Combined with the extraction and fixing pipe and vacuum pump, the pressure inside the electric drying chamber is reduced, allowing the herbal pieces to dry. Utilizing the low-pressure vacuum environment, low-temperature rapid drying is achieved. The extraction and fixing pipe and drying circulation box dry the water vapor generated by the herbal pieces, and the internal air is self-circulated to ensure the dried herbal pieces are exhausted, improving the internal drying efficiency.
