The automatic capsule filling machine integrates machine, electricity and gas, adopts microcomputer programmable controller, touch panel operation, 

frequency conversion speed regulation, and is equipped with electronic automatic counting device. The machine is sensitive in action, accurate in filling 

dose, novel in structure, beautiful in appearance, convenient in operation, and can automatically complete the action of in place, separation, filling and 

locking of the capsule. It can reduce labor intensity, increase production efficiency, and meet pharmaceutical hygiene requirements. This device is therefore 

widely used to fill a variety of capsules. Its highly efficient automatic capsule filling efficiency has been well received. So how do operators properly maintain 

this mechanical device?

Here are a few things to keep in mind during the cleaning process:

 

First, the frequency of cleaning: 

1. Before production, after production the machine need to be cleaned and disinfected; 

2. It must be cleaned when 

changing varieties, specifications, batch numbers; 

3. Equipment must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after repair.

 

Second, detergents and disinfectants: drinking water, purified water, 75% ethanol.

 

Third, cleaning method and disinfection method:

 

Cleaning method: First, brush the dust of the machine with a brush. Use a vacuum cleaner to suck the parts of the machine and the table top. Then, clean 

all parts (including powder punches, metering discs, powder hoppers, etc.) that have been folded off with alcohol, and wash the countertops with an 

alcohol rag. The upper and lower mold holes are cleaned with a small brush and alcohol. Finally, wipe the glass shield and equipment surface with purified water.

 

Disinfection method: After cleaning the equipment according to the standard operating procedures of the equipment, the equipment components should
