FAQs of Capsule Inspection Machine:
Q: How does the Capsule Inspection Machine enhance capsule quality control?
A: The machine enables operators to perform detailed visual inspections under optimal lighting, using variable conveyor speeds to ensure each capsule is meticulously checked. This process helps promptly identify defects, ensuring only high-quality capsules proceed to packaging, thereby upholding product standards.
Q: What are the operator requirements and roles during inspection?
A: Typically, 1-2 operators are needed to manage manual or semi-automatic visual inspection, monitor the conveyor, operate the PLC controls, and handle the reject mechanism. Their responsibilities include observing capsules, removing defective ones, and ensuring the machine runs smoothly and safely.
Q: When should the inspection process be conducted within production?
A: Capsule inspection using this machine is ideally performed after capsule filling and before final packaging. This ensures that any defective, deformed, or contaminated capsules are identified and removed prior to reaching the consumer.
Q: Where is the Capsule Inspection Machine most commonly used?
A: The machine is predominantly utilized in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturing facilities in India and globally. It is an essential part of quality assurance processes within these industries, aiding in compliance with regulatory standards.
Q: What is the process of sorting and rejecting defective capsules?
A: Defective capsules are identified visually as they move along the conveyor, illuminated by LED or fluorescent lighting. Depending on the model configuration, rejections are executed either manually by an operator or pneumatically via the integrated reject mechanism, ensuring only compliant products advance.
Q: What benefits does the PLC-based control system offer?
A: PLC-based control allows precise management of conveyor speed, lighting, and reject functions, providing consistent inspection results. Programmable settings also facilitate adaptability to varying inspection criteria and production needs.
Q: How does the machine support easy cleaning and maintenance?
A: With a stainless steel surface (mirror/matte finish) and ergonomic design, the machine is simple to wipe down and maintain. Tool-free access to main parts and smooth surfaces reduce cleaning time while upholding hygienic conditions required in pharmaceutical settings.
