Description
Automatic Capsule Filling Machines are the most advanced hard capsule filling equipment developed to improve the quality & speed of production. Machine complies as per current GMP standards. It is a well versed version with much more superior electronic & new advanced loading. Separating system makes the machine suitable for capsules from any suppliers across the globe.
Salient Features of High Speed Automatic Capsule Filling Machine
Compact GMP model
Machine stands superior to other machines in the market by its high speed cam dividing (indexing ) device mechanism.
Machine is equipped with complete safety and protection devices, operation is steady and credible.
Compact, sturdy, covered with stainless steel panels, hood covered with acrylic guard.
Fill weight adjustment within seconds.
Tamping Mechanism’ for powder filling enables capsules to be filled with minimum weight variation.
Variable AC frequency drive for speed adjustment.
Digital counter for counting production output.
Faulty capsule and filled capsule ejection stations with individual air controls.
Special purpose gauges are provided for quick and easy change-over.
Appropriate sensors ensure continuous flow of powder and empty capsules for uninterrupted operation of the machine.
The control panel of the machine is equipped with Programmable Logic Control (PLC) system enabling visual display of the operating parameters besides ensuring accuracy, reliability and reduced operator fatigue.
Working of the machine is as follows capsule loading and separation, reject capsule disposal, powder (Bulk) filling, capsule closing (locking) and its ejection completely automatically.
Process Operation of High Speed Automatic Capsule Filling Machine
After starting up the machine, the empty capsules in hopper will be fed into the slot of magazine vertically. With each stroke of machine, the fingers of magazine will release one row of capsules into rectifier raceway. The horizontal fingers rectify the direction of capsules and vertical fingers push the capsules into hole of segment with all caps on the up position. The capsules in the holes are sent to each working station along with the intermittent rotation of the turn table.
- At the 1st & 2nd station, the vacuum system separates the capsules in position.
- At 3rd station, the lower segment with capsule body extends out ready for the filling.
- 4th station uses to fill pellets.
- At the 5th station, the tamping pins push the pressed powder slug into capsule body.
- 6th station to re-joint cap & body segments.
- At 7th station non-separated capsule get eject.
- At 8th station vertical pins pushing body of capsule into the cap for re-join and close the filled capsules.
- The 9th station is to eject the finished capsules.
- At the 10th station the holes of segments are cleaned by vacuum cleaner and compressed air. Then the segments are ready for next cycle of operation.
The powder from a SS hopper entered to a chamber of dosing plate & temping pins for dosing, the height of the powder is controlled at chamber by a material level sensor. Tamping device is work by a 6 working station of intermittent mechanism, there are 6 groups of standard holes on dosing disc. The powder filled in holes was made of a slug that reaches the weight of dose after 5 tamped. At the 6th working station the slug pushed by tamping pin into capsule body. Adjusting the height of tamping pin holder can be changed the filling weight of powder.
