Capsule de-dusting and polishing system
Ensure precision in capsule production with continuous de-dusting and polishing, enhancing product quality by removing excess powder and achieving a clean, professional finish.

De-dusts and Polishes Capsules Continuously
The De-dusting and Polishing Machine (DP), available in models DP 100 and DP 200, exemplifies ACG’s engineering expertise in capsule processing solutions. This horizontal system is essential for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers who demand flawless capsule surfaces. By employing a rotating spiral brush coupled with an air displacement unit, the DP effectively de-dusts and polishes capsules in a continuous operation, maintaining the integrity of each capsule shell. Capable of processing up to 200,000 capsules per hour, the machine integrates seamlessly with encapsulation lines, enhancing the overall efficiency of production. All contact parts are crafted from food-grade materials, ensuring safe product handling, and the system is compliant with industry standards. As part of a robust production line, the DP machine reduces downtime with easy maintenance, facilitating swift clean-ups due to its open design. Whether customizing configurations for specific throughput requirements or ensuring consistent quality, ACG supports you with comprehensive engineering solutions designed to meet your operational needs.
