Bosch GKF 2500 Capsule Filler

Bosch GKF 2500 ASB 100% capsule machine with KKE-2500 checkweigher

High speed capsule filling machine with an output of up to 150,000 capsules per hour, including automatic trouble-shooting function (ASB), 100% checkweighing (KKE) and feedback loop between KKE and powder filling station (for powder, micro dosing, pellets, tablets, liquids and combinations).

The GKF 2500 ASB 100% is equipped with a high-precision gravimetric online weight control system and offers the possibility to control the weight of each and every capsule produced.

The machine also incorporates an automatic fill weight adjustment feature based on communication between the checkweigher and the dosing station. The production process is documented seamlessly via the user-friendly software package.

The maximal uptime of the machine is guaranteed by the automatic trouble-shooting feature (ASB). The high degree of automation ensured by ASB provides for smooth production processing and ensures optimized productivity with minimum downtimes.

Benefits:

• Very reliable production machine
• Small footprint and height (integrated hoppers)
• Lowest in class powder loss due to slide gate technology
• Lowest centrifugal forces and small size station design and therefore highest possible product yield
• Flexible dosing alternatives, up to 3 fills/capsule
• Integrated ASB function (automatic trouble shooting) guarantees maximum productivity
• ASB 100% optional (mono-block machine incl. ASB in combination with 100% checkweighing) pellets dosing via powder station, due to slide gate technology
• Size parts change and cleaning procedure performed by only one person, due to design of the components
• Feedback-loop to compensate weight trends available
• Operator-free production possible due to ASB and feedback-loop
• Mobile HMI with 21 inch touch screen display with clear presentation of data
