The TRICAP machine range provides innovative and effective solutions for the treatment of the capsules after the filling process:

 

• Dedusting and polishing capsules.
• Sorting and automatic elimination of the filled capsules with defect.
• Possibility of integrating a metal detector.

Dedusting and polishing the filled capsules :

Sorting and elimination filled capsules with a deformation on the diameter :

• Capsule with joining defect.
• Telescoped capsules (internal and external).
• Capsules crushed, flattened, oval.
• Capsules with product (powder or pellets) intercalated between cap and body parts.
• Capsules with defect, holes, bubbles, asperity…

Sorting and elimination of empty capsules and separate cap and body:

• Empty capsule.
• Very weakly filled capsule (effective if < 15% of the total weight).
• Body loose part filled with product.
• Separate cap and body parts.

 

Impact of the use of the TRICAP system:

Install the TRICAP system in line with the filling machine to increase your competitiveness by reducing the cost of production of the capsules.

• Reduce significantly the stoppages and cleaning of packaging lines (blister, bottles).
• Ensure and control the quality of 100% of your production.
• Reduce the workload of your operators.
• Avoid visual selection operations.
• Reassure your customers by guaranteeing them a unitary control of the production.
• Improve your process by the analysis of rejections which is a representative indicator of the process performance:
  • For QA: data can be registered in the manufactured batch file, helps to define the continuous improvement actions.
  • For maintenance: to prevent the filling machine dysfunction (misalignments, wear of the size parts).
