Semi Automatic Capsule Filling Machine

How Does the Semi-Automatic Capsule Filling Machine Work?

Empty capsules are placed into the filling machine’s hopper. Load powder into a separate hopper. The corkscrew-driven hopper fills capsules consistently. Then, the operator uses the vacuum sucker to fill the loading rings with capsules. Loading Rings come in sizes 00 to 5. The suction separates the capsules.

After separating the capsules, the loading rings are pushed apart to remove the bottom. The bottom component goes into the filling machine. The operator may start filling once the loading rings are in position. This allows the filler to glide onto the capsules and spin them. The corkscrew presses powder into capsules. This guarantees each capsule’s size and weight. The two loading rings are then put in the capsule filler’s sealing section. Once synchronized, the operator shuts the guard and seals the capsules using air pressure. The loading ring releases the capsules.

This machine can polish capsules once they’re made. The capsule polisher includes corkscrew brush bristles and a dust extractor. The dust extractor vacuum-cleans capsules for finishing.

What are the design specifications of a semi-automatic capsule filling machine?

Automatic Loading: Solid-state control circuitry automatically stops the loading table after 50 strokes, removing operator attention.

  • Automatic Filling:  Automated swing-in and swing-back lower operator strain.
  • Pneumatic Closing: This lessens work by using an electronic sensor to activate the closing pneumatic cylinder.
  • Vertical Closing: Vertical filling capsules eliminate rejects and powder spills. Essential for pellet filling. Two auger speeds and nine filling table speeds do this.
  • Adaptable Hopper: Allows quick cleaning disassembly. Reduce batch changeover times.
  • Capsule Output: Ring loading increases capacity. This lets current installations generate more production.
  • De-dusting Display: Ejection chute separates capsule powder easily.

What is the structure of a Semi-Automatic Capsule Filler?

The semi-automatic capsule filler is structured practically and smartly for maximum efficiency. Starting with the electrical unit, PLC control system, filling system, loading system, cap and body tray, pneumatic system, down to the filling table, and capsule closing system; All function harmoniously.

  1. Electrical Unit: delivers adequate power for most machine operations.
  2. PLC Control System: This is where you enter the filler’s filling parameters.
  3. Filling System: This component regulates the machine’s capsule-filling speed.
  4. Loading System: It automatically positions filling material and empty capsules before filling.
  5. Caps and Body Tray: This two-part tray mechanically separates caps from capsule bodies.
  6. Pneumatic System: Air compression drives pump filling material into empty capsules.
  7. Filling Table: The dynamic variable filling table speed improves dosage accuracy.
  8. Capsule Closing: The capsule’s bottom is protected by U-shaped locking pins.

Product Features

1
These machines typically have a capsule loading mechanism where empty capsules are loaded into the machine either manually or through a hopper.
2
Semi-automatic machines usually employ a powder filling mechanism. This mechanism may involve manual or semi-automatic filling of the powder into the capsules.
3
After the powder is filled into the capsules, there's often a tamping or compression mechanism to compact the powder inside the capsules to ensure uniformity and proper dosage.
4
Once the capsules are filled, there is a mechanism for closing the capsules, usually by joining the capsule halves together. This can be done manually or semi-automatically.
5
These machines often have a control panel where operators can adjust settings such as filling dosage, speed, and other parameters depending on the requirements of the product being encapsulated.
6
Some semi-automatic machines may include material handling systems such as conveyors or trays to facilitate the movement of capsules through the filling process.
7
Safety features like interlocks and guards are essential to ensure operator safety during machine operation.
8
Good machines will be designed for easy cleaning and maintenance to minimize downtime and ensure product quality.
9
While not as precise as fully automatic machines, semi-automatic capsule fillers should still provide consistent and accurate dosing within acceptable tolerances.
10
The machines may offer some degree of flexibility in terms of the capsule sizes they can accommodate and the types of powders they can fill, though this can vary depending on the specific model.
11
They often have a relatively compact design to save space in production facilities.
12
Manufacturers typically provide a user manual and possibly training for operators to ensure they can effectively and safely operate the machine.
