A dosing disc, also known as a tamping disc, is a key part of a capsule filling machine that uses tamping pins for filling. Here's a quick rundown of how it works:
- Powder bed and Tamping pins: The machine has a reservoir filled with the powder to be encapsulated. Tamping pins move up and down through this powder bed.
- Dosing disc with holes: The dosing disc sits below the powder bed and has holes that align with the tamping pins.
- Filling cycle: The disc rotates, bringing the holes under the tamping pins. As the pins descend, they compact the powder in the holes, forming a plug.
- Transferring the dose: The disc continues to rotate, reaching a transfer station. Here, the pins move down again, pushing the compacted powder plugs out of the holes and into the waiting capsule bodies.
- Accuracy control: The dosing disc plays a crucial role in ensuring accurate filling by controlling the amount of powder delivered to each capsule.
- There are also different types of dosing discs, such as fixed discs for specific volumes and adjustable discs for wider product ranges.
