High-speed capsule filling system

Maximize production efficiency with high-speed capsule filling designed for precise dosing and seamless integration into your existing lines, ensuring consistent quality and output up to 960 capsules per minute.

Fills and Processes Capsules at High Speed

The PEGASO CR-8+8P encapsulator from Opem is designed to meet the high-speed demands of the food and beverage industry, particularly for coffee and nutraceutical capsules. This system is unique due to its lineal configuration with a double index, providing a robust solution for operations requiring continuous and reliable precision filling. The powerful cam shaft mechanics are housed in the lower part of the unit, enhancing stability across multi-shift operations.

With a throughput of up to 960 capsules per minute, it efficiently processes solid, powder, and granular products into various capsule types, including espresso, lungo, decaf coffee, and a range of supplements and vitamins. The machine seamlessly integrates into existing lines, featuring random feeding, denesting, and screw dispensing driven by brushless servo motors. An in-line weight control system ensures filling accuracy within ± 0.2g, with automatic feedback adjustments and rejection of out-of-tolerance capsules.

The system supports PLC-controlled automation for enhanced operational efficiency and offers engineering customization to fit specific production requirements. Its sturdy build delivers long-term durability, making it a cost-effective filling solution for capsule production facilities.
