Frequently Asked Questions
Which capsule sizes does this 400-hole filler support?
This model is available for capsule sizes 00, 0, or 1. Each plate is size-specific, so choose the correct size before ordering.
How many capsules can I fill per cycle?
This i Series manual capsule filler fills 400 capsules per cycle.
How many capsules per hour can I make?
Typical output is approximately 3,000–8,000 capsules per hour depending on operator pace, powder flow, and workflow setup.
Can one plate fill multiple capsule sizes?
No. Manual capsule filling plates are size-specific. If you want to fill multiple capsule sizes, you need separate plates or separate fillers for each size.
What is the difference between the i Series and P Series manual capsule filling machines?
The i Series manual capsule fillers are designed with improved alignment, tighter tolerances, and refined production processes for better precision and repeatability. They offer stronger value for users who need more consistent small-batch capsule filling. The P Series is the baseline option for occasional or entry-level use. Both series are size-specific and should be selected based on the capsule size you plan to fill.
How should I clean this capsule filler?
Hand wash with mild soap and water. Do not place it in a dishwasher, and do not use harsh solvents. Dry completely before storage.
When should I upgrade to a semi-automatic capsule filling machine?
If you need higher daily output or more consistent production than a manual workflow provides, consider upgrading to a semi-automatic capsule filling machine such as the JTJ-V.
