What drying time is required for the gelatin band?

The integrated forced-air cooling carousel dries the band seal within 8 to 12 minutes before packaging.

What documentation is supplied at handover?

Handover includes the operation and maintenance manual, electrical and pneumatic schematics, the spare parts list with part numbers, material test certificates for contact parts, sensor calibration certificates and the completed qualification dossier.

How is fill weight verified during a run?

Weight is checked at start-up, at every 30-minute interval and at each shift change against the in-process specification. Machines specified with an inline checkweigher record every capsule and divert out-of-tolerance units automatically, writing the result to the batch record.

What is required to change from powder to pellet dosing?

Pellet dosing uses a separate dosing disc and feed assembly. The changeover is mechanical, takes approximately one shift including cleaning, and the machine is re-qualified for the new format under an abbreviated OQ.

How are empty or faulty capsules rejected?

Capsules failing rectification are separated before the dosing station, and unlocked or deformed capsules are removed after closing. Rejects discharge to a lockable container so reconciliation can be completed at batch close.

What warranty applies to this machine?

Machines are supplied with a 12-month warranty from commissioning covering manufacturing defects, with wear parts and tooling excluded. Extended cover is available under an annual maintenance contract, which also fixes response times for breakdown attendance.

Overview

About the LCF-80 Liquid & Oil Capsule Filling & Band Sealing Line

The **LCF-80 Liquid Capsule Filling & Banding Line** provides a leak-proof solution for filling oils, lipid-based self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS), and viscous semi-solids into hard gelatin or HPMC two-piece capsules. The system doses liquids at temperatures up to 70°C, followed by dual-layer precision gelatin band sealing and forced ambient drying.

Heated Ceramic Dosing Pumps: Jacketted liquid hoppers and valveless ceramic rotary pumps maintain viscosity for lipid formulations.

Dual-Station Gelatin Band Sealer: Applies two independent gelatin or HPMC seal bands over the capsule joint, preventing leakage.

Automatic Capsule Rectification: Capsules are oriented and separated before dosing, with unrectified units removed ahead of the filling station.

Recipe-Driven Changeover: Size and format parameters are stored per product, so a changeover recalls the qualified settings rather than relying on manual adjustment.
