Detailed Product Description

There was a time when using manual or semi automatic machines even for moderate to high volumes made sense. Today, except for small quantities and lab level projects, using manual or semi-automatic machines is a costly mistake.

The KR 40 is a very compact Fully Automatic Capsule Filling Machine that can fill a large variety of powder formulations into hard gelatin capsules. This formulation-friendly machine uses a tamping principle to form a slug that is inserted into the empty capsule.
