Capsule tablet counter counting machine

Buyers should prioritize counting accuracy (ideally 99.9%+) and the number of channels (e.g., 8, 16, or 32 channels) which directly impacts production speed. Ensure the machine features dust-compensation technology to maintain precision when handling dusty tablets. Additionally, verify the vibration feeding system quality to ensure smooth product flow without damaging fragile capsules.

The equipment must strictly adhere to GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards. Look for FDA-compliant materials for all contact parts, typically Stainless Steel 316 (SS316). For the European market, a CE Certification is essential, and for data integrity, ensure the software supports CFR 21 Part 11 compliance if electronic records are required.

A high-quality counter should offer tool-less changeover to handle various sizes of hard capsules (000# to 5#), softgels, and tablets of different shapes (round, oval, or triangular). Ask the supplier for the maximum and minimum detectable sizes and whether the infrared sensors can be adjusted for transparent or semi-transparent capsules.

Prioritize suppliers who provide comprehensive O&M (Operation and Maintenance) manuals and FAT/SAT (Factory/Site Acceptance Testing) services. Ensure the availability of wear-and-tear spare parts kits (like sensors and seals). Top-tier manufacturers on Made-in-China.com often provide remote video technical support and a 12-24 month warranty on core electronic components.

Always send samples of your actual capsules or tablets to the supplier for a pre-shipment testing video. This confirms the sensors are calibrated correctly for your product's color and transparency. Request a detailed URS (User Requirement Specification) document to be signed by both parties before the deposit is paid.

Utilize the Secured Trading services provided by Made-in-China.com to protect your payment until delivery. Conduct a third-party factory audit (such as SGS or TÜV Rheinland) to verify the supplier's manufacturing capacity and quality management system (ISO 9001). Avoid direct wire transfers to personal accounts.

Ensure the machine is packed in a vacuum-sealed moisture-proof bag inside a fumigated solid wooden case (IPPC standard) to prevent corrosion and physical damage during sea freight. Specify FOB or CIF terms clearly and ensure the machine is bolted to the crate base to prevent shifting during transit.

Verify the HS Code (typically 8422.30) with your local customs broker to determine applicable tariffs. Ensure the supplier provides a Commercial Invoice, Packing List, and Certificate of Origin to benefit from any Free Trade Agreements (FTA) that may exist between China and your country.
