Softgel Capsule Filler Training: Building Stronger Technical Teams at JinluPacking

Guangzhou, China

Recognizing the importance of strong technical capability in serving global clients, JinluPacking held a focused vulmachine voor oliecapsules training on December 3rd, 2025. The program was led by Senior Engineer Mr. Yang and Engineer Mr. Wu. Through clear explanations and on-site demonstrations, participants from engineering, verkoop, operations, marketing, and service teams were guided through key components, operating principles, and the full production workflow of auto softgel capsule filler.

“These insights aren’t just for engineers—they’re valuable for all of us,” said Yang,“This session could help our colleagues better understand many of the issues customers often raise, and it proved to be an excellent learning opportunity.”

1. Thorough Preparation and Advance Planning

As a company with more than 30 years of experience in pharmaceutical and packaging machinery R&D, JinluPacking adheres to the principle that creating value for customers is creating value for itself. To better address customer pain points and provide high-quality service, the company maintains strict internal training standards.

Given the tricky preparation requirements of the softgel capsule filling machine, Meneer. Yang and the engineering team began preparation work in advance. Their work included gelatin melting, system heating, machine warm-up, and multi-point parameter verification. The team spent several hours stabilizing temperatures, balancing the vacuum system, and preparing all necessary materials. This thorough groundwork ensured the auto softgel capsule making machine training could proceed smoothly and with full technical support.

2. Training Progress: Structured and Systematic

2.1 Component Introduction

The training began with a structured walkthrough of the machine voor het maken van capsules’s components. Meneer. Yang and Mr. Wu introduced each section by drawing comparisons to previously studied equipment, helping employees quickly establish a conceptual bridge and better understand the characteristics of each component. Employees actively participated, asking questions and engaging in productive discussion.

Meneer. Yang explained that the softgel encapsulation machine consists of:

• Gel Melting & Holding Tank
• Chiller
• Water-Circulation Vacuum Pump
• Main Machine
• Rotary Drying Drum

While explaining the vacuum pump, he emphasized:
“This model uses a water-circulation system, unlike the pneumatic vacuum pump in the 1500D capsule filling machine. Instead of using compressed air, it creates vacuum through water circulation to remove excess moisture from the gelatin solution.”

Volgende, Meneer. Wu introduced the symmetrical design of the main machine. Holding up a softgel capsule, he explained: “A softgel is formed by joining two sheets of gelatin. Each side of the capsule filling machine for oil produces one sheet, and the two meet at the center during forming.”

He then identified the major components on each side: the spread box, casting drum, gel rollers, lubrication roller, injector, and die rolls. Employees observed closely, taking photos and notes as they followed the explanation.

2.2 Workflow Overview

After the structural introduction, the engineers walked the team through the complete lab scale softgel capsule making machine production process. The explanation covered four key stages:

1. Gelatin Delivery to the Main MachineMeneer. Yang first explained that the gelatin is melted and kept warm in the holding tank before being transferred to the main capsule filling machine through a heated, pressure-sealed tube. Emmy, a senior sales representative, raised a practical question:“What prevents the gelatin from solidifying in the transfer tube?”Mr. Yang clarified that the internal temperature is maintained at about 40–50°C, allowing the gelatin to remain in liquid form as it moves through the system.
2. Ribbon Formation and FillingThe team then shifted to ribbon formation. Lesley from the content team asked whether the main machine cools the gelatin into ribbons and injects the material. Meneer. Wu confirmed and walked everyone through the sequence:
   1. After the gelatin enters the spread box, it reaches the proper level for forming.
   2. The casting drum rotates to spread and cool the gelatin into a ribbon.
   3. The ribbon then runs past the lubrication roller to keep it smooth.
   4. It continues to the die rolls, where the injector fills a precise dose of material into the forming softgel (±2% accuracy) and the shells are then heat-sealed.
   5. The two gelatin ribbons are then molded and cut into softgels.

   

3. Separation of Finished Softgels and Residual MaterialWhile observing the die roll section, Lesley noticed a copper-colored plate beneath the rollers and asked about its purpose. Instead of detailed reply, Meneer. Yang ran the capsule filler machine to show the mechanism more clearly. Finished softgels dropped onto the conveyor belt, while the excess gelatin was guided downward by the copper plate for clean separation.
   The clear demonstration allowed participants to understand the workflow intuitively, and many took notes immediately to reinforce their learning.
4. Air-Drying In Rotary DrumMeneer. Yang then introduced the next stage. After forming and separation, the finished softgels are carried by the conveyor to the discharge point. There, a blower system pushes the capsules through a connected air duct, sending them directly into the drying drum. Inside the drum, cool air circulates continuously, and the capsules rotate for 6–8 hours until they become evenly dried and fully stabilized.
   Meneer. Yang also explained the drum’s two rotation modes:
   • Forward rotation moves softgels toward the discharge area.
   • Reverse rotation keeps them inside the drum for prolonged drying.

As the final steps were demonstrated, the full workflow of the automated softgel capsule filling machine came together clearly, and the team could see how each stage fit into the production sequence.

3. Interactive Q&A: Practical and Engaged Learning

At the end of the session, Meneer. Yang hosted an open discussion, inviting employees to raise technical questions from real customer interactions. The questions and answers were as follows:

Recognizing the team’s focus and active participation throughout the discussion, Meneer. Yang expressed his appreciation. “Your questions are sharp and highly practical. It’s clear that everyone approaches these trainings with seriousness and a strong desire to learn,” he noted.

4. Ready to Support Global Clients

Employees noted that the soft capsule making machine training was highly practical and immediately applicable to their daily work. Beyond improving operational understanding, it strengthened their confidence in addressing client inquiries.

“JinluPacking’s trainings are always detailed and closely aligned with customer needs.” Emmy said, “I can now identify key issues in after-sales cases much faster and respond more professionally.”

With this session completed, JinluPacking’s technical and service teams are well prepared to support global clients with installation, inbedrijfstelling, and troubleshooting. De capsule making machine for oil is now open for international orders, offering stable, high-output softgel production with consistent sealing and dosage accuracy.
