Feeding Section:
This section consists of Stainless Steel Hopper, a Stainless Steel
Vibrator and a Stainless Steel drug powder collector. As the capsules pass
through the vibrator some amount of drug powder gets collected in the Stainless
Steel collector because of vibration.
Inspection Section
This section consists of a conveyor belt with variable speed
drive; lighting from above to inspect the capsules. The capsules move on
the conveyor belt. While moving they revolve around their axis due to the
angular guide. This total visual inspection can be undertaken by the operator
to sort out faulty capsules. The faulty capsules are picked up manually
by pluckers or by hand.
Polishing Section
This section consists of two Stainless Steel chambers fitted with a
filter cloth; a revolving variable speed spiral nylon brush; stainless
steel powder collector and vacuum dust collector. The capsules travel from
one end of the brush to the other end. During this travel they are subjected
to roll in between the Nylon bristles and Filter cloth. In this course
the powder on capsules and at the edge are removed and sucked by the Dust
collector. The capsules coming out of the chute are thoroughly polished,
glossy and clean.
