Versatile capsule filler for pharmaceuticals
Effortlessly switch between powder, pellet, and liquid dosing with this adaptable capsule filling solution, designed to streamline production and enhance precision across your pharmaceutical processes.
Performs Capsule Filling and Inspection
The Modu-C MS from Harro Höfliger is a versatile capsule filling machine that stands out for its adaptability and precision. It employs a patented trolley system, enabling swift changes between dosing methods for powders, pellets, tablets, mini tablets, and liquids. Designed for pharmaceutical manufacturers, it efficiently produces high-quality capsules, ensuring consistent performance across various applications including vitamin E capsules, multivitamin tablets, and inhalation products.
Capable of processing up to 100,000 capsules per hour, the Modu-C MS operates within a medium power range, making it ideal for mid-speed production environments. Its automation is enhanced with features like the No-Cap-No-Fill function, capsule closure inspection, and the rejection of defective units, which minimizes product loss.
The system allows seamless integration with existing production lines, facilitated by standard interfaces for IT network communication. Constructed with robust materials, the equipment ensures durability and complies with GMP standards, supporting hygienic and efficient operations. With fast setup and cleaning times, along with customizable dosing options, the Modu-C MS also offers extensive engineering support to tailor the machine precisely to your needs.
