Abstract: The invention relates to a device (22) for sealing capsules (10). Each capsule has a capsule shell which is made of a first shell part and a second shell part, said shell parts being provided with a banding liquid in a connection region. The device has a heat source (30) for drying the banding liquid, and the device has at least one diaphragm (32) which is arranged in a radiation region of the heat source between the heat source and the capsules, wherein the diaphragm has at least one passage region for the passage of radiation of the heat source and for irradiating the connection regions of the capsules, and the diaphragm has at least one shielding region which shields sub-regions of the capsules which are offset to the connection region against radiation of the heat source.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pharmaceutical production facility (10) comprising a measuring device (30, 32) for monitoring a seal of capsules (20). The capsules have a capsule shell which is made of a first shell part and a second shell part, said shell parts being provided with a sealing liquid in a sealing region, wherein the measuring device comprises an infrared camera (34) or a camera with an infrared filter, and the measuring device detects the temperature or a change in the temperature of the scaling region and/or capsule sections adjoining the scaling region.
