Unique automatic equipment for filling hard gelatin capsules. The assembled capsules are poured into a common hopper, then the machine orients the capsules into one position and fills the ring-shaped cells. The capsules are oriented with their lower parts facing downwards. A vacuum pump is used to separate the capsule into 2 parts. In manual mode, the mold with the bottom half of the capsules is placed under the powder hopper. The hopper has a screw feed of powder into the capsule. This allows for additional compaction of the powder in the capsule. The weight of all capsules ends up being the same. After all capsules are filled with powder in the mold, the upper and lower parts of the capsule are joined together. Then the finished capsules are poured into the tray. It is possible to download a video and view the entire cycle of operation of the automatic capsule filling machine. The whole process of powder filling with capsules is divided into 3 independent operations: automatic sorting of empty capsules into the mold, filling the capsule body with powder, aligning the capsule lid with the body and snapping. The process of automatic sorting of empty capsules into the mold is quite fast (you will see it on the video) at this stage, the operator can always see a faulty capsule and replace it with a good capsule by hand. This is fast and does not lead to breakage and stoppage of the equipment. The next step is to fill the capsule body (the long half) with powder. It takes much longer to fill the capsule. And the principle of powder feeding is completely different. There is a large hopper, powder is poured into it, then the powder is pressed down by a screw (screw), the neck of the hopper approaches the mold and presses the powder into the capsules forcibly. In this case, the mold under the neck of the hopper rotates 360 degrees for a certain time, thus each capsule gets the same amount of powder. Sometimes my customers run the powder under the hopper neck for 2 turns, and this allows some powder to be pressed into the capsules. The screw hopper eliminates the need to buy a granulator, granulation technology, and many problems with powder preparation. Also the screw hopper is a guaranteed equal weight of powder in the capsules, no air voids in the powder. After the mold with capsule body and powder is filled, the operator puts on half of the mold with lids and aligns the capsules by snapping them.
