Section 1: Operation Procedures
Step 1: Toggle the main power switch to energize the system. This prepares the pill counting machine for operation.
Step 2: Load the pills into the inclined feeding hopper at the top of the machine. This hopper is equipped with a detachable transparent counting disc.
Step 3: Rotate the switch clockwise to activate the control panel. The integrated indicator light illuminates green. The digital displays show the starting values. Then set the desired counting parameters on the panel.
Step 4: The counting disc begins to rotate and vibrate. The vibratory action makes capsules fall into the individual cavities of the disc. The seated capsules are then transported to the discharge chute.
Step 5: Place an empty bottle at the discharge outlet. Then press it against the trigger lever. A brief tap releases the capsules in the discharge chute into the bottle.
Step 6: Repeat the “tap-and-release” action until the bottle reaches the target count. Put aside the filled bottle and replace it with an empty one.
