Capsule filler
FEC40 capsule filler produces as many as
400,000 capsules per hour, almost twice
the output of conventional capsule fillers.
Higher output stems from combining
process steps and creating room for sec-
ond filling station, reducing production
costs by as much as 30 percent. Available
configurations include two tamping sta-
tions and many as four pellet stations.
Changing dosing methods and products
is fast, and you can dismantle and clean
stations away from machine to shorten
maintenance and changeover times.
Optional pre-fitted filling stations make
changeover even faster, and optional
RFID tags on format parts ensure safety.
Unit's database stores formulations and
process parameters and automatically
examines formulation entries for consis-
tency. Capsule filler connects to com-
pany's remote service portal for round-
the-clock support.
