Answer / Dinesh Pal Singh

The punch size (e.g., 8/32) refers to the dimensions of the die used to punch tablets during manufacturing. To calculate tablet weight using a known punch size, you can use the following formula: Tablet Weight = Density of active ingredient x Volume of tablet. The volume of a tablet can be calculated using the punch size: Volume = (Punch diameter^2 x Punch height) / 4.
