Hard Capsule Automatic Optical Inspection Machine
The Automatic Optical Inspection (AOI) Machine for hard capsules performs high-precision appearance, internal defect detection, and color sorting.

About the Hard Capsule Automatic Optical Inspection Machine
The Automatic Optical Inspection (AOI) Machine for hard capsules performs high-precision appearance, internal defect detection, and color sorting. It is designed for empty hard capsules in sizes 00 through 4 and is capable of inspecting transparent, semi-transparent, colored, and vegetarian (HPMC) varieties, making it an essential tool for capsule and pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities.
Documented functions: defect detection, classification & sorting. Defect types, inspection ranges, speeds and optical resolution in the specification table are quoted from K2 TECH; optical resolution describes the imaging system and is not a measurement accuracy unless stated as such.
Final detection capability depends on part condition, presentation, cycle time and the agreed defect catalogue; EMUS validates these with K2 TECH using sample parts before quotation.
- High Inspection EfficiencyWith the maximum value of inspecting speed up to 140,000pcs per hour, the equipment has high inspection efficiency. Besides, adopting the latest embedded no-fan industrial computer with small volume avoids computer crash caused by environmental factors.
- 360- degree InspectionInspecting by 360 degree all-round, the capsule inspection equipment covers both ends of capsule with no blind area and high accuracy. Separate image system and drive system with double layers of electrical protection protects precise components from broken.
- Easy OperationInspection standards can be adjusted to meet customer requirements. Inspection standards can be adjusted to meet customer requirements. A user-friendly industrial touchscreen interface ensures easy operation, reducing the need for extensive operator training.
