UCS Capsule Separating Machine

This machine is designed to automatically separate the filled capsules and retrieve powders, granules, pellets, or micro-tablets. It is designed and built to replace the conventional non-GMP method of milling, sieving and retrieving powder from filled capsules. It is ergonomically designed and suitable for all capsule sizes with applicable changeparts. This machine is easy to clean and maintain, low-noise, user-friendly, and meets the cGMP standard. There are safety functions and alarm devices built-in for maximum protection. The housing and capsule retrieving area are made of sanitary stainless steel to meet cGMP standard. It is mobile, compact, and easily wherever powder retrieving is needed.

The entire working process is self-contained and isolated from operators to avoid product contamination. It is an invaluable piece of equipment for any capsule manufacturing facility where powders are extremely expensive, as it eliminates the waste of powder materials

Working Principle

• The filled capsules enter through the guide from a sorting system that is pushed into the separating and retrieving device by the horizontal fork.
• The blades on the device securely hold the cap and body of the moving capsules.
• The capsule continuously moves along the opening rail formed by the blades. Then, it completely separates the capsule into 2 pieces—without cutting the gelatin capsule shell into several pieces.
