Laboratory Model Capsule Banding Machine

STI Laboratory Model Capsule Bander.

• The STI Laboratory Model Capsule Bander simulates the sealing process of a HiCapSeal production banding machine. The machine is capable of producing approximately 100 banded capsules per hour.

• The STI Laboratory Model Capsule Bander is designed to seal the joint between the capsule cap and body in order to prevent leakage of liquid products; reduce oxidation of the contents of the capsule; and to minimize the odor problems associated with both solid and liquid products.

• However, the most important feature of the STI Laboratory Model Capsule Bander, is to demonstrate the tamper resistant nature of the band. Once banded, the capsule is almost impossible to open and re-close without leaving evidence of tampering.

• Since the STI Laboratory Model Capsule Bander simulates the production machines, it is possible to make low volume runs for clinical trials, comparative studies, stability studies, etc.

• The ease of changeover from one capsule to another also makes it possible to use the STI Laboratory Model Capsule Bander as a method to evaluate a variety of capsule and banding color combinations.

• Capsules filled with any of a number of liquid, gel, or paste products (as well as solid dosage forms) are manually loaded into the capsule carrying slats. The slats pass through the banding process identical to the production machines. This ensures a complete and highly accurate banding operation.
