C-Pills Auto: a new automatic solution for counting capsules and tablets
Innovation is an integral part of CDA’s development. With the launch of the C-Pills Auto, an automatic capsule and tablet counter, the objective is clear: to offer a high-performance, precise solution that integrates perfectly into a complete packaging line.
Designed to meet the requirements of the pharmaceutical, food and veterinary industries, the C-Pills Auto adds to the range of automatic and semi-automatic filling machines offered by CDA.
Counting accuracy adapted to demanding environments
The C-Pills Auto ensures automatic counting of capsule and coated tablets into jars or bottles, with accuracy reaching 99.99 %.
Its high-performance laser curtain counting system, combined with a vibrating hopper, allows:
- Great counting consistency,
- Reduced losses,
- Reliability in line with the requirements of the pharmaceutical, animal and agri-food industries.
With a throughput of up to 1,000 capsules per minute (for size 0 capsules), this automatic counter adapts to high-speed production environments.
A design focused on productivity and ergonomics
The C-Pills Auto has been developed to facilitate operators’ work and optimise format changes:
- High-capacity hopper (up to 60,000 size 0 capsules),
- Electric height adjustment of the counting table and hopper,
- Stainless steel conveyor with automatic container indexing,
- Intuitive interface with touchscreen,
- Easy assembly/disassembly for good cleanability.
Its construction in mirror-polished stainless steel and food-contact compatible materials (POM C) guarantees robustness, hygiene and durability.
Easier integration into a complete packaging line
The C-Pills Auto can operate independently or be integrated into a complete packaging line, including notably:
- An automatic capper for jar closure, such as the VS2000,
- An automatic labeller from the Ninon range for container decoration.
This global approach provides a coherent, scalable solution adapted to your constraints.
Why choose the C-Pills Auto?
Designed to optimise and secure packaging throughput, the C-Pills Auto is a real asset for manufacturers wishing to make their counting process more reliable and automated.
