• AC drive provided for speed adjustment
• The tamping system of filling the powder ensures accuracy of filling at ±2%.
• The weight adjustment mechanism is simple and fast
• The panel is fitted with programmable logic control (PLC) system with visual display of the various parameters
• Powder level in the filling chamber is controlled by sensor to avoid powder Low level
• Alignment of the upper and lower segments and tamping pins with dosing disc can be easily achieved with guide pins
• The machine is designed for easy cleaning & maintenance

 

Process Operation:-

 

Capsules are loaded and separation of cap and body takes place with the aid of vacuum. Unopened capsules are ejected into the collection box. The dosing tube is put into powder plate and powder is compressed into slug from the powder and slug is ejected into the opened capsules. Unfilled powder is reclaimed from the collector. Capsules are joined by upper and lower closing pins. Filled capsule is ejected into the collection chamber. The residue powders are cleaned by suction for the next cycle of operation.

 

Safety System:-

 

Machine stops automatically in the event of following problems through safety interlock system.

• No capsules
• No powder
• Door in open condition
• Abnormal load
• Air pressure low

The dosing tube system is designed in such a way that the powder temperature will never rise during the filling process
