Adapta 7-21-50 Capsule Filling
Machine overview
More than a machine.
Adapta 50 features innovative technical solutions to manage complex solid dosage forms such as product combination in hard gelatine capsules or powder micro-dosing for Dry Powder Inhalers. The machine is available in multiple configurations, including the Adapta 7 and Adapta 21 versions, reaching speeds of 7,000 and 21,000 capsules per hour, respectively.
The use of advanced sensors together with evaluation algorithms of produced data, allow full control of production, setting the premises for Advanced Control Strategies. Advanced machine learning functions are used for more efficient self-adjustment of process parameters: less waste, better product quality. All this maximises machine functionality, keeping the machine performance on target and allowing the single rejection of products out of specification. Adapta no-fill bypass prevents product waste if the capsule body is not present.

Machine highlights
-
Excellent accessibility
Making cleaning and maintenance quicker thanks to the capsule infeed unit positioned at the centre of the transport plate.
-
Exceptional design flexibility
Dosing units are reversible/interchangeable enabling plug-and-play shift between different machine configurations and capsule filling combinations.
-
Gravimetric weight control
Built-in upside down scale for 100% gravimetric net weight control also for product combination by checking the capsule in suspension.
-
Cutting-edge HMI
MAX new corporate HMI plays a strategic role in improving operator efficiency, while ensuring prompt responsiveness, enhanced predictability and easy learning.
The best solution for DPI dosing precision
Adapta technology guarantees total production control with any product dosage, ensuring optimal performance across all configurations, while its adjustable dosing system optimises precision and minimises product loss even at high speed.
