Product overviewAutomated effervescent tablet tube filling machine for precise packaging of dissolvable tablets into plastic or aluminum tubes. Vibratory feeding aligns tablets and feeds them into a custom mold; quantity per tube is configurable (typically 15–30 pcs/tube). Tablets are transferred into sterilized tubes via a cylinder. Photoelectric sensors verify counts; compliant tubes are capped and non‑conforming tubes are rejected.
Applications- Pharmaceuticals (e.g., vitamin C effervescent tablets)
- Nutraceuticals (electrolyte and supplement tablets)
- Food and health product packaging
How it worksThe machine counts tablets into dedicated molds, transfers them into sterilized tubes using a piston/cylinder system, inspects quantity with photoelectric sensors and optional vision systems, then automatically caps and ejects rejected tubes. Operators load tubes and caps via vibratory feeders while tablets are dispensed from hoppers through adjustable slide channels to control fill counts.
