Capsule Polishing & Sorting Machine

A capsule polisher and sorter is a machine that removes powder from the capsule surface and separates defective capsules from qualified ones to improve quality.

High-Quality Capsule Sorting and Polishing Machine

Capsule polishing and sorting machines are also called capsule sorters and polishers. They are used after the capsule filling process to improve the appearance and quality of capsules. The machine removes powder from the capsule surface through a gentle polishing system. At the same time, the sorting unit separates defective capsules, such as empty capsules, broken capsules, or capsules with low weight.

There are some models that only feature one function. It is suitable for people who want only capsule sorting or polishing. Sometimes, capsule polishing can be combined with a metal detector. It identifies small metal particles, such as iron, to guarantee capsule quality. Anxine offers different types of capsule polishers and sorters, suitable for capsule sizes from 00# to 4#.

How Does the Capsule Polisher and Sorter Work?

This equipment is often used after capsule filling and before packaging. Automatic models can nearly complete the entire process by themselves.

Capsule Feeding

Filled capsules enter the machine. A feeding port guides the capsules into the polishing chamber.

Polishing Process

The brush gently removes powder and dust from the capsule surface.

Powder Collection

A vacuum system pulls the removed powder into a dust collector.

Capsule Sorting

At this stage, defect capsules, like light or empty capsules, are separated from qualified capsules.

Discharge of Qualified Capsules

Only qualified capsules move to the outlet and continue to the next step, such as capsule inspection or packaging.
