What is the YJP-A Capsule Polishing Machine used for?
What is the YJP-A Capsule Polishing Machine used for?

The YJP-A is designed to polish hard gelatin capsules. It effectively removes loose powder, dust, and minor oil stains from the surface of capsules after they have been filled and locked by a capsule filling machine. This improves their appearance, ensures patient compliance, and prevents cross-contamination between different capsule types.

What is its working principle?
What is its working principle?

The machine uses a gentle brushing action. Capsules are fed into a rotating polishing drum lined with a soft, fluffy brush. As the drum rotates, the brushes scrub the capsules clean. An integrated vacuum system simultaneously sucks away the removed dust and powder, collecting it in a dedicated bag or container.

What types of capsules can it handle?
What types of capsules can it handle?

It is primarily designed for standard hard gelatin capsules (both snap-fit and locking types) in various sizes, from size 5 to size 00. It is generally not suitable for softgels, tablets, or other solid dosage forms.

What is the typical capacity and output?
What is the typical capacity and output?

The capacity varies slightly by model, but a standard YJP-A can typically process up to 3000 capsules per hour. The actual output depends on the capsule size and the properties of the powder inside.

Is the machine easy to clean?

Why is the polishing effect not satisfactory (capsules still dusty)?
Why is the polishing effect not satisfactory (capsules still dusty)?
  • Insufficient Vacuum: Check that the vacuum suction is strong enough. Ensure the dust bag is not full and the hoses are not clogged.

  • Brush Wear: The brush may be worn out and needs replacement.

  • Incorrect Speed: The drum may be rotating too slowly. Increase the speed slightly.

  • Excessively Oily Powder: The machine is designed for dry powder. Oily formulations can smear and are harder to clean with this method.

Are there different models of the YJP-A?
Are there different models of the YJP-A?

  • YJP-A: Standard model.

  • YJP-AII: An improved version, often with a more powerful motor or refined design.

  • YJP-B: A larger capacity model.
    Always check the technical specifications for the exact model you are considering.
