Zanasi 70C Capsule Filling

Machine overview

Creating an exclusive process.

Originating from the Zanasi series, Zanasi 70C creates a process during which a precisely-sized oblong tablet is inserted into two halves of identical gelatine bodies. An easy-to-swallow dosage form, masking both the smell and taste of the drug, it allows administration of high product doses compared to standard capsules.

Exclusively used for the production of Press-Fit® and Xpress-Fit® gelcaps, Zanasi 70C is the ideal solution to produce a unique gelatine-coated tablet. The gel-enrobing technology combines the advantages of the hard gelatine capsule with those of the tablet.

Machine highlights


  1. Automatic positioning 

    Automatic feeding and positioning of the two halves of the gelatine bodies.


  2. Enhanced precision

    Ensures consistently accurate tablet placement, guaranteeing optimal performance throughout the entire production process.


  3. Flexibility 

    Can join the two halves together (Press-Fit® Gelcaps) or leave a gap at the midpoint (XPress-Fit® Gelcaps). 


  4. Quality check

    Detection unit to control the gelcaps and automatic system to eject any defective ones.


  5. Improved accessibility

    The design ensures easy and immediate access to the working area, allowing operators to reach all components quickly.


  6. Advanced ergonomics 

    The machine features a simple construction combined with an ergonomic interface, making daily operations smoother.

Bi‑colour capsule appeal

The traditional bi‑colour design of hard gelatin capsules strengthens brand identity and aligns with proven consumer preferences. Press‑Fit® and XPress‑Fit™ Gel caps offer an easy‑to‑swallow dosage form that masks taste and odour while allowing higher product loads compared to standard capsules.
