FAQs you should know about Pharmaceutical Capsule Polisher

Pharmaceutical capsule polisher machine utilizes brush polishing principles to remove powder adhering to the surface of capsules and tablets.

Description

1 What parts does a capsule polishing machine have?

This machine consists of a base, discharge port, frame, single-phase motor, polishing brush, glass cover, mesh bag, hopper, and vacuum cleaner. The polishing brush is driven directly by the motor and can be adjusted according to the speed of the motor. The polished drugs are placed in the hopper and, as the brush rotates, are fed along the bag into the discharge port. The powder brushed off is collected in the vacuum cleaner. The frame can be adjusted in working angle using the support rod and locking handle.

There are two different types of medical capsule polishing machines. The structure views are as follows.

 

2 How does a pharmaceutical capsule polisher work?

This pharmaceutical polishing machine utilizes brush polishing principles to remove powder adhering to the surface of capsules and tablets, resulting in a clean, shiny finish. It is essential equipment for the post-production processing of capsules and tablets.

The machine’s polishing conveyor system utilizes a closed structure, and components that come into contact with the drug are constructed of corrosion-resistant materials and are easily disassembled and cleaned, meeting the Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) guidelines for pharmaceutical equipment.

This machine meets the requirements for capsule polishing. The spindle tilt angle can be adjusted within a certain range to meet the polishing time requirements of different drugs. The machine base is equipped with casters for easy placement in various work locations.

 

3 Can a beginner use a medical capsule polisher?

 

Machine Installation Requirements

This machine can be used on any flat surface and only requires a single-phase three-pin socket (~220V).

After the machine is set up, connect the vacuum cleaner and power supply. Place the container below the discharge port and observe the vacuum cleaner operation and test the speed control performance. If it is operating normally, add a small amount of chemical to the hopper for polishing. Adjust the machine frame tilt angle based on the surface condition of the polished chemical. After polishing, the chemical meets the requirements and can be put into production. After a batch of chemical is produced, it should be idle for two minutes to remove dust from the conveyor pipe before polishing a different chemical.

 

Polishing Time Adjustment

Adjusting the machine frame tilt angle (changing the height difference between the discharge port and the feed port) changes the chemical residence time in the polisher. A larger tilt angle results in a longer polishing time, and vice versa. When adjusting, first firmly support the rear end of the frame to prevent the bracket from becoming unbalanced and damaging the frame after loosening the locking screws. Adjust the frame’s tilt angle and retighten the locking screws.

Cleaning

Use a wrench to loosen the setscrews at both ends. Remove the cover, lift up the upper cover, tear off the mesh, loosen the coupling setscrews, carefully remove the shaft, blow it clean with compressed air, reinstall it in the opposite direction, and test-twist it manually for 1-2 turns. Only start the machine if there are no signs of binding or abnormalities.
