How inspection works
Capsules rotate and tablets turn as they travel through the machine. An inspector views the exposed surfaces and manually removes defective pieces. The original product description specifies one operator for capsule inspection and two for tablet inspection.
This is a visual inspection process performed by people; the supplied specifications do not describe camera-based automatic rejection.
Key features
- Adjustable feeding speed for different products.
- Stainless steel housing, hopper and guides, as described in the original specification.
- Conveyor belt designed for durability and cleaning.
- Guide change between capsule and tablet operation, described as taking within 10 minutes.
- Designed for straightforward operation, cleaning and maintenance.
