Does the brush damage printed logos on capsules?

No, food-grade ultra-soft nylon bristles polish powder residue without scratching laser or ink markings.

How is fill weight verified during a run?

Weight is checked at start-up, at every 30-minute interval and at each shift change against the in-process specification. Machines specified with an inline checkweigher record every capsule and divert out-of-tolerance units automatically, writing the result to the batch record.

What is required to change from powder to pellet dosing?

Pellet dosing uses a separate dosing disc and feed assembly. The changeover is mechanical, takes approximately one shift including cleaning, and the machine is re-qualified for the new format under an abbreviated OQ.

How are empty or faulty capsules rejected?

Capsules failing rectification are separated before the dosing station, and unlocked or deformed capsules are removed after closing. Rejects discharge to a lockable container so reconciliation can be completed at batch close.

What warranty applies to this machine?

Machines are supplied with a 12-month warranty from commissioning covering manufacturing defects, with wear parts and tooling excluded. Extended cover is available under an annual maintenance contract, which also fixes response times for breakdown attendance.

What documentation is supplied at handover?

Handover includes the operation and maintenance manual, electrical and pneumatic schematics, the spare parts list with part numbers, material test certificates for contact parts, sensor calibration certificates and the completed qualification dossier.

Overview

About the TCF-50 Capsule Checkweigher & De-duster Polishing Unit

The **TCF-50 Capsule Polishing & Checkweighing Unit** elevates filled capsules vertically while gently removing electrostatic powder dust using non-scratch soft nylon bristles and vacuum suction. The discharge chute incorporates an ultra-sensitive multi-frequency digital metal detector and air-reject gate for contaminated capsules.

Vertical Upward Conveyance: Elevates capsules from filler discharge height (800mm) to inspection height (1200mm) saving floor space.

Multi-Frequency Metal Detection: Identifies magnetic and non-magnetic stainless steel contaminants with instantaneous pneumatic reject.

Automatic Capsule Rectification: Capsules are oriented and separated before dosing, with unrectified units removed ahead of the filling station.

Recipe-Driven Changeover: Size and format parameters are stored per product, so a changeover recalls the qualified settings rather than relying on manual adjustment.
