How Should You Choose And Maintain Capsule Polish Machine?

During the process of capsule, tablet or health products’ production, they usually needs to be polished, so the machine that is used for polished named drug polishing machine. Its main function is to wipe off the dust which exists on the surface of the capsule and tablet. Finally, it can improve the surface finish and remove empty shells and broken pockets.

According to the industry introduction, the working principle of the medicine polishing machine is to drive the capsule to make a circular spiral motion along the wall of the polishing cylinder through the rotating motion of the brush, so that the capsule moves forward along the coil spring. The outer surface of the capsule shell is polished, and the polished capsules enter the waste hopper from the discharge port.

It is reported that capsule polishing machine has characteristics of novel structure, attractive appearance, light weight, simple operation, mobile flexible, easy to clean, high polishing efficiency, good cleanliness, etc. It can greatly improve the products’ quality and production efficiency and significantly increase economic and social benefits.

How to choose a polishing machine?

Choosing good equipment can ensure stable operation of production. The following factors need to be considered when choosing a pharmaceutical polishing machine.

First, check the beam quality which comes from the polishing machine, including the mode and mode stability.

Second, observe whether the output power of the polishing machine is large enough (this is the key to the speed and effect), and whether the energy is stable (usually the stability is required to be 2%, and in some cases, 1% is required, so that the ideal effect can be processed).

Third, the polishing machine should have high reliability, so that it can work continuously in the harsh industrial processing environment.

Fourth, the polishing machine itself should have good maintainability, fault diagnosis and interlocking functions, and the downtime should be short.

Fifth, the operation is simple and convenient, and the function of the control key is clear, which can refuse illegal operation and protect the equipment from damage.

How to maintain a polishing machine?

After you buy the right equipment, the polishing machine needs to be scientifically maintained and maintained, so as to prolong the service life of the equipment. In this regard, the industry shared the skills of polishing machine maintenance.

First, the parts that need a long term maintenance have a lot of oil in the gear box. You need to add once every 1-2 years

Second, you should clear the work bin regularly and make sure at least once a week to avoid blockage.

Third, you should regularly clean, maintain and lubricate the sliding plate, the middle knife and the front top knife, and the general maintenance period is about one month.

Fourth, every time you refuel, you need to grasp the amount, and it should not be excessive when adding, so as to avoid machine failure due to oil immersion of the switch.

Fifth, in daily use, you should pay more attention to keeping the machine dry, do not let the machine touch anything with water, and do not directly rinse it with water.

Sixth, lubricating oil is an important part of polishing machine maintenance work. Generally, all bearings need to be re-added with lubricating oil after about 3 months.

In recent years, in the context of the rapid development of the pharmaceutical industry and the general health industry and the continuous upgrading of people's consumption levels, the demand for medicine and health products continues to expand, which gives more opportunities for the polishing equipment industry’s development.

At the same time, the low-price competition of homogeneous products has become a stumbling block for most polishing machine companies to upgrade. How to break the situation of high product overlap rate and low price competition? How to improve product competitiveness? These are all questions that domestic polishing machine manufacturers have to think about.

Stability

In terms of the stability of the polishing machine, the manufacturer said that the stability of the equipment energy is inextricably linked to the processing effect. In order to meet the good processing effect expected by the user, it must start from the aspect of stability.

It is reported that the energy stability of the polishing machine is usually required to be 2%, and in some cases, 1% is required, so that the ideal effect can be processed. In addition, the polishing machine has high reliability, so it can work continuously in the harsh industrial processing environment, bringing stable production guarantee to the enterprise.

Output power

In terms of the output power of the polishing machine, the power is related to the speed and effect. The industry believes that the reasonable design and optimization of the output power of the polishing machine can be beneficial to the operation of the equipment. In general, the higher the output power of the polishing machine, the better the polishing effect. 

Functionality

The polishing machine itself should have good maintainability, with fault diagnosis and interlocking functions, and the downtime should be short in order to help users reduce losses. Compared with imported machine, domestic polishing machines have relatively more problems in fault maintenance, and their own consumption rate is high in the production process.

Therefore, reducing the frequency of failures is also the direction that domestic polishing machine companies need to work hard.

Energy saving and environmental protection

In terms of energy saving and environmental protection, the polishing machine will inevitably take the environmental protection route in the future, so as to help the green production.

At present, some polishing machine companies have improved the original equipment, which can save 50% of electric energy compared with ordinary polishing machines. And the equipment adopts a negative pressure type waste removal device, which has no pollution to the environment and meets the new requirements of users.

The process of polishing design and manufacture

In the process of polishing machine design and manufacture, you should sufficiently consider the relevant link for matching that is similiar to polishing process in processing flow. And you also need to attach the importance on the application of process technology combined with polishing and conventional processing.

With the rapid development of the capsule and tablet industry, the supervision of drug quality and safety has increases, pharmaceutical polishing machine manufacturers need to continuously improve innovative equipment to further meet the changing needs of users in order to enhance market competitiveness.

At the same time, providing customers with better solutions to machine problems can also achieve long-term cooperation and development.
