Capsule polisher for pharmaceutical capsules
Ensure your capsules are free from dust and perfectly polished with a solution that integrates seamless upwards conveying, minimizing product jams and optimizing efficiency in high-speed continuous operations.

Polishes and Dedusts Capsules Efficiently
The KCP15 from Krämer AG is a versatile capsule polisher and deduster that elevates the polishing process in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical production lines. Specially designed with a rotational spiral brush, it efficiently removes excess dust while polishing capsules of all sizes, ensuring pristine end-products like gelatin and softgel capsules. With an upward conveying range of 800 to 2000 mm, it seamlessly integrates with existing setups, featuring dust-tight Tri-Clamp connections and compatibility with metal detectors such as Ceia, Lock, and Safeline. Its modular structure allows for quick assembly and disassembly without tools, making cleaning a breeze. Certified for ATEX Zone II 2D/- Db 140 °C and compliant with cGMP standards, the KCP15 guarantees safety and regulatory adherence. Its compact design minimizes footprint, while the quiet operation at under 68 dB supports a conducive working environment. Additionally, the KCP15 supports continuous, high-speed operations and can be easily customized with options like inlet and outlet adapters, metal detector inserts, and various diverter systems.
