Automatic Capsule & Tablet Counting and Bottling Line
High-accuracy pill counting + full bottling workflow for capsules and tablets. This integrated line combines bottle feeding, electronic counting, dust extraction, rejection, capping, induction sealing, labeling, and outfeed in one GMP-ready system. Built for nutraceutical and pharma teams that need consistent throughput, fast changeovers, and local support.
Also called: capsule counting machine, tablet counter, pill counter, counting and bottling line.
Key benefits
-
Accurate counts with multi-channel sensors and auto-rejection for under/over counts.
-
Scalable throughput: configure channels and lanes to meet target BPM/CPM.
-
Fast changeovers: recipe recall for bottle size, count, and speed parameters.
-
Clean operation: integrated dust extraction and anti-static control.
-
Full line control: synchronized conveyors with bottle detection and jam prevention.
-
GMP-ready: stainless contact parts, batch reports, and validation docs available.
-
US support: spares and remote diagnostics from our North America team.

FAQs
What throughput can we expect?
Throughput depends on channels/lanes, bottle size, and target count. Tell us your SKU mix and we’ll size the line for your CPM/BPM target.
Can the line run both capsules and tablets?
Yes—most configurations support both. Change parts and recipes speed up product changeovers.
Do you provide installation and validation docs?
Yes—installation & training are available, with IQ/OQ documentation upon request.
What utilities are required?
110/220V power (module-dependent) and clean dry air for pneumatics. We’ll provide a utilities list with your quote.
