Capsule filling system for powder, pellets, and tablets
Optimize capsule production with rapid dosing changes, minimizing downtime and ensuring precise filling for enhanced operational efficiency.

Doses and Fills Capsules Efficiently
The Modu-C HS from Harro Höfliger is a high-speed capsule filling machine designed for pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers. Its standout feature is the patented trolley system, enabling quick changes between various dosing methods—powder, pellets, tablets, and liquids—ensuring minimal downtime and optimal productivity. With an impressive output of up to 200,000 capsules per hour, it supports continuous high-speed operations, ideal for pharmaceutical processing and packaging needs. The machine is PLC-controlled, with advanced inspection features like differential pressure measurements for quality assurance. Additionally, it integrates seamlessly with production line IT networks via standard interfaces and offers a no-cap-no-fill function, reducing product waste. The machine meets GMP standards and supports easy cleaning and maintenance with its innovative design, making it an invaluable addition to any capsule production line.
