NJP-1200C production capsule filler
Automatic Capsule Filling Machine for Production-Scale Hard Capsules
Configure the HIJ NJP-1200C around capsule size, formulation, target output, control architecture and validation scope.
Up to 72,000/hConfiguration and formulation dependent
00# to 5#Also supports safety capsules A to E
≤±3%Under the stated dosing and granulation conditions
Selection boundary
Select the machine around the formulation, not the catalog speed
An automatic capsule filling machine separates empty hard capsules, meters the fill material, closes the capsule and rejects incomplete units in a continuous indexed cycle. Stable output depends on capsule behavior, powder flow, fill-weight target and the selected dosing configuration.
Capsule formatSize, shell material and locking style
FormulationPowder, granule, pellet or mixed fill
Fill targetNominal weight and accepted variation
Production demandShift pattern, batch size and real output
Control scopeFrequency control, PLC or PLC with HMI
Validation scopeURS, data needs and agreed documentation
Working principle
Eight indexed stations control the filling cycle
The rotary platform advances capsules through separation, dosing, rejection and closing. Tooling, vacuum and material behavior must remain synchronized for repeatable fill weight and shell handling.
01Capsule feedingEmpty capsules enter the orientation path.
02Body and cap separationVacuum separates the two capsule parts.
03Dosing preparationThe material bed and dosing components stabilize.
04FillingPowder or granule is metered into the capsule body.
05Defect rejectionUnseparated or incomplete capsules leave the process.
06Capsule closingCap and body are aligned and locked.
07DischargeClosed capsules exit to downstream handling.
08Tooling cleaningThe station clears before the next indexed cycle.
Review the related NJP-series process before defining the URS
This legacy NJP-2000/2500 demonstration shows the station sequence used across the related automatic capsule-filling platform. Use it to review process flow only; request the current NJP-1200C running video for configuration confirmation.

Configuration choices
Choose the control architecture before locking the quotation
The NJP-1200 family is documented with three control routes. Select the route from the required operator interface, data exchange and validation strategy.
Model B
Frequency-conversion control
A practical base configuration where variable-frequency operation meets the project requirement.
Model C
PLC control
PLC-based machine control for structured production operation and fault handling.
Model E
PLC, touchscreen and OPC server
Industrial Ethernet and OPC connectivity intended to support a customer-defined electronic record and signature program. Final integration is project specific.
URS and validation boundary
Define acceptance criteria before selecting options
A fully automatic capsule filling machine should be specified as a process system, not only as a rated-output number.
- Product definition: capsule shell, formulation, flow properties, fill-weight range and cleaning constraints.
- Performance definition: sustained output, reject logic, acceptable dosage variation and changeover expectation.
- Facility definition: room conditions, electrical supply, water, vacuum, extraction and available footprint.
- Control definition: user levels, alarms, data exchange and the customer's electronic record strategy.
- Documentation definition: agree the required project documents, tests and acceptance evidence in the URS and quotation.

Procurement FAQ
Automatic capsule filling machine questions
Answers use the verified NJP-1200C technical window. Project-specific values remain subject to the approved configuration.
What is the output of the NJP-1200C automatic capsule filling machine?
The documented rated output is up to 72,000 capsules per hour. Sustained production output depends on the capsule, formulation, fill target and selected machine configuration.
Which capsule sizes can the NJP-1200C fill?
It is documented for capsule sizes 00# to 5# and safety capsules A to E. Confirm the required tooling set during the configuration review.
What dosage accuracy is specified?
The technical document states a dosage difference of no more than plus or minus 3% when dosing exceeds 300 mg and the material has been granulated to 40 to 80 mesh. Other formulations require project evaluation.
Can it fill powder, granules and pellets?
The NJP-1200 family supports defined powder, granule, pellet and mixed powder and granule applications. Oil and liquid fills require a dedicated liquid capsule filling route.
What affects the automatic capsule filling machine price?
Price depends on capsule tooling, formulation handling, control architecture, feeders, downstream equipment, documentation scope and destination. HIJ does not use an unverified fixed public price for this configurable B2B machine.
What information is needed for a configuration review?
Provide the capsule size, shell type, target fill weight, formulation, expected output, shift pattern, facility utilities, control requirements and validation scope.
