Zhejiang Fuchang Machinery Co., Ltd.

Overview

 

Our capsule-filling machine is used to encapsulate product (powder, and pellets) in gelatin capsules.  Empty capsules are loaded into the capsule hopper where they are fed into the magazine.  Capsules initially enter the magazine un-oriented.  From the magazine, the capsules enter the sorting block where they are properly oriented (smaller end on the bottom).  The capsules are then separated by vacuum.  The lower portion of the capsule is filled.  The upper portion of the capsule is inspected to ensure the capsule is separated.  (If the capsule is not separated or is faulty, a pin will dislodge the capsule and the vacuum will remove it from the system.)  The two halves are then joined together.  The finished capsule is discharged to a chute and the station is cleaned with an air blast.

 

The capsule filler can use all makes of capsules (00#～5# and safety capsule A～E).  Non-separated or improperly inserted capsules will be automatically rejected.  Capsule target fill weight can be adjusted by changing dosing disks.   At the end of a run, only a small quantity of product will be remaining in the hopper.

Features:

 

1. Machine supplied with HMI, PLC controller. Ready to connect with automatic management computer network.

2. Online monitoring of running state, failure diagnosis display.

3. Empty capsule feeding alarm, auto stop on powder feeding. Guarantee average dosage.

4. Totally enclosed frame rotary table prevents contamination, and is easy to clean.  

5. Filling structure especially designed for easy cleaning.

6. High quality components of driving system provide high precision.

7. Powder homogenizer (Chinese patent) inside powder chamber, ensures even distribution of filling powder, even with bad flowing powder.

8. 85% of lost powder in filling section can be recovered by powder collector (Chinese patent), enabling it to be re-used.

9. Filling structure is easily raised, (Chinese patent) which allows for easy cleaning.

10. Double-sided grooved cam (Chinese Patent), guarantees steady filling and is much longer lasting.
