A Tablet & Capsule Conveyor is a critical component of the pharmaceutical manufacturing and packaging process. It is designed to transport tablets, capsules, or other similar dosage forms through various stages in the production process, such as from tablet presses to packaging lines. These conveyors are an essential part of ensuring efficient, consistent, and controlled movement of pharmaceutical products, which helps maintain product quality and compliance with regulatory standards.
These conveyors are specially engineered to handle sensitive materials like tablets and capsules, which are delicate and can easily be damaged or contaminated. As a result, these conveyors incorporate features that protect the integrity of the product while facilitating its movement from one point to another in the manufacturing process.
Inclined Belt Conveyor
• Vertical Transport: Moves capsules upward or downward between different process areas.
• Space-Efficient: Ideal for facilities with limited horizontal space.
• Adjustable Speed: Can be set to the desired speed for better control over product flow.
• Smooth Movement: Prevents product damage with smooth, controlled transportation.
Â
Vibratory Conveyor
• Gentle Handling: Vibrations move products with minimal contact, reducing the risk of breakage.
• Uniform Transport: Ensures even distribution of tablets or capsules across the conveyor.
• Minimal Wear: Low mechanical impact helps reduce wear and tear on both the conveyor and the product.
• No Direct Contact: Ideal for fragile products like tablets and capsules that can be damaged by direct handling.
Â
Bucket Elevator Conveyor
• Vertical Movement: Lifts tablets or capsules to higher levels in a controlled manner.
• Bulk Handling: Ideal for moving large quantities of product.
• Space-Saving: Vertical design allows for efficient use of floor space.
• Enclosed Design: Often comes with enclosed buckets to prevent contamination or product loss during transit.
Â
Roller Conveyor
• Efficient Movement: Uses rotating rollers to move products smoothly along the conveyor.
• Heavy Load Capacity: Can support heavier products and bulkier items, such as containers.
• Gravity or Powered: Can be configured for gravity-fed or powered operation.
• Low Maintenance: Simple mechanical design makes it easy to maintain and repair.
Â
Air Conveyor
• Gentle Product Handling: Uses air pressure to move fragile products without physical contact.
• Clean Environment: Often used in sterile environments to prevent contamination.
• High Speed: Capable of quickly moving lightweight products over short distances.
• Minimizes Damage: Ideal for delicate products like capsules that may be damaged by traditional conveyor systems.
