Tablet Capsule Printing Machine

High speed oriented (Rectified) Rotary / Liner Two Colour Capsule Printing Machine is a new product from the makers of Scorpio machines.

WORKING :

The capsules are loaded in the capsule hopper. The upper drum having set no. of cavities (as per the size of the capsule) collects the capsules from the capsule hopper by negative pressure. While the drum rotates, the capsules are rectified by a simple mechanism. Thereby the cap and body are positioned in the same direction, i.e. the body on left side and the cap on right side. Both the moving drums are connected to the Air Pressure & Vacuum line.

The rectified capsules are transferred on to the moving conveyor for printing through the bottom drum.

Two Gravure rollers one to print on the body and another to print on the cap (for two colour) are fitted above the conveyor one after another in the same direction. The Gravure Rollers (engraved with the matter to be printed) take the edible ink from the ink reservoir transfer the matter on to the offset roll, which print on the capsule.
