The term “compressed tablet” generally refers to a plain, uncoated tablet suitable for oral ingestion, prepared by a single compression or by pre-compaction tapping followed by a final compression.

Grata!

Note from asker:
Obrigada, Clauwolf pela sugestão; o texto estava mal escrito mesmo.

Reference:

I can only find "macheamento" for "tapping", but not in a pharmaceutical context, FWIW.

Compaction studies - how packing condition affects flow properties

Flowability is usually more affected by the packing condition than by any other single factor. The relationship may be determined and quantified in terms of a compaction index at one extreme and by the aeration ratio at the other. The appropriate test may be applied to two samples, one of which is conditioned using the standard FT4 conditioning procedure, the other having been compacted by repeated tapping to consolidate the powder. The ratio of these two test results is the compaction index.
