Abstract: The present invention discloses a closing station (100) for a capsule filling machine comprising a bottom (110) and a top closing unit (120) configured to displace towards each other, such that bottom pins (112) associated with said bottom closing unit urge into through holes of a body holder (B) to contact closed ends of each filled capsule body sections (114) and sliding them into said open ends of each capsule cap sections (124), such that each capsule is partially closed against an exerting pre-compressive force of the top pins (122) and is completely closed when force against biasing means (130) of said top pins (122) is exerted for providing telescoping closing of the cap (124) and body (114) sections of each capsule.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a tamping system (100) for tamping of filler materials of capsule filling machine to form slug, and selectively delivering the slug from a dosing disc (108) based on the presence/absence of empty capsule bodies in an empty capsule segment in a turret of capsule filling machine. The tamping system (100) based on the presence/absence of empty capsule bodies in the empty capsule segment, enables actuation of pneumatic cylinders (113) to restrict movement of tamping pistons (110) into the respective holes of the dosing disc (108) that were configured to be align with the empty capsule segments of the turret where no capsule bodies were identified or present, irrespective of the downward movement of the holder blocks (111) towards the dosing disc (108), thereby restricting the delivery of the slug into empty capsule segment of the turret, and preventing wastage of the filler material or slug.

Abstract: Systems and methods for continuous production of filled capsules. The system includes a continuous blender for receiving and continuously blending ingredients discharged from one or more feeders to form a blended mixture. The system includes a capsule filling machine to receive empty capsules and fill the mixture in them to provide filled capsules. The system includes multiple sensors configured at predefined positions within the system to monitor the attributes associated with the ingredients, mixture, empty capsules, and filled capsules. The system includes a control unit to control the feeders, blender, capsule filling machine and other components of the system to bring the attributes within a predefined range to ensure that the filled capsules are of predefined quality.
