Purpose
It automatically transports bulk tablets, capsules, caplets, soft gels, or similar solid dosage forms from a low-level (floor-mounted) hopper to the elevated hopper of downstream machinery, such as:
-
tablet counters
-
blister packing machines
-
bottle filling lines
-
inspection systems
This eliminates manual lifting and feeding, improving ergonomics, reducing labor, minimizing contamination risks, and ensuring consistent product flow in high-speed production lines.
Key Features
-
Gentle product handling: Often uses bucket lifts, vibratory feeders, cleated belts, or pneumatic systems to minimize breakage, chipping, or dust.
-
Hygienic design: Contact parts in SS 316L stainless steel, tool-free disassembly for quick cleaning, dust extraction ports, and full cGMP compliance.
-
Automation controls: Level sensors in the downstream hopper trigger on-demand feeding; adjustable height, timers, and safety interlocks.
-
Ergonomics & safety: Low-profile loading at operator level (~900mm), enclosed guards, and no heavy lifting required.
