Capsule Polishers

VPS-100 Series – Vertical Capsule Polishers

The new standard for high-performance capsule polishing.

The VPS-100 Series defines the next generation of vertical capsule polishing for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers. Designed for continuous, high-volume operation, it provides efficient polishing, dedusting, and upward conveying of capsules directly from the encapsulator.

How it Works:

Capsules are gently conveyed upward through a rotating brush system while dust is removed through a segmented vacuum channel. The vertical motion not only polishes and cleans the capsules but also elevates them, allowing seamless connection to metal detectors, empty capsule sorters, or diverter switches without loss of throughput.

Upward Conveying Advantage:

By gaining height during the polishing process, the VPS-100 simplifies system integration and allows for larger downstream collection bins or direct inline transfer to subsequent quality inspection and packaging stages — all while maintaining a compact footprint.

Key Features

• Segmentable Dust Extraction Design: Features an open main vacuum port, contributing to maximum dust extraction efficiency and maintaining a clean production environment
• Segmentable Stepless Air Brush Design: Incorporates a specially designed, stepless brush system with air jets optimized for gentle yet thorough capsule dedusting and precise handling, minimizing product damage
• Digital Display: Provides a clear digital display that continuously shows key machine metrics, allowing for easy monitoring of operational status and performance
• Integrated Empty Capsule Sorter: Thanks to the upgradable design, an empty capsule sorter can be integrated to the device at any time
• Integrated Metal Detection: Combining polishing and metal detection into a single, compact unit simplifies the production line and reduces the need for separate equipment and handling steps

Applications

Perfect for pharmaceutical laboratories and production facilities requiring clean, polished capsules for further processing, packaging, or quality control. Essential for maintaining appearance and removing manufacturing residues.
