JL-75II Laboratory Softgel Encapsulation Machine with 6,000 capsules/hour Output, PLC Control, and Compact Integrated Structure

During softgel product development, machine stability, process controllability, and similarity to industrial production are critical to successful scale-up. The JL-75II Laboratory Softgel Encapsulation Machine is specifically designed for laboratory research, formulation development, and pilot trials, enabling users to establish reliable, repeatable softgel encapsulation processes at the R&D stage—laying a solid foundation for subsequent industrial production.

JL-75II Laboratory Softgel Machine – Overall View

As a laboratory-scale softgel encapsulation machine, the JL-75II features a compact, integrated structure. It integrates all core functions of softgel encapsulation into a small footprint, making it perfectly suitable for R&D laboratories, pilot workshops, and research institutions where space is often limited.

Electrical Control System

Equipped with an industrial-grade electrical control system, the machine boasts a clear layout and standardized wiring for easy maintenance and troubleshooting. Adopting a PLC-based control architecture, it ensures stable operation and superior process repeatability under laboratory conditions—critical for obtaining consistent R&D data.

Gelatin Melting System – Key Structural Features

The stainless-steel gelatin melting system is dedicated to heating, mixing, and heat-preserving gelatin solution. Its optimized structural design effectively maintains stable temperature and viscosity of the gelatin solution, providing uniform, high-quality gelatin ribbons for smooth encapsulation—directly affecting the integrity and consistency of softgel products.

Small-Capacity Gelatin Melting Tank

Tailored for laboratory and pilot-scale applications, the small-capacity gelatin melting tank not only meets strict process requirements but also minimizes raw material consumption. This design is particularly ideal for frequent R&D operations, where multiple formulations and tests are conducted with limited sample quantities.

Laboratory Mold System

The laboratory mold system supports a variety of capsule sizes and shapes. Molds are easy to install, disassemble, and replace, allowing R&D teams to efficiently test different formulations, dosages, and capsule designs—greatly improving R&D efficiency and flexibility.

Rolling Die Encapsulation and Injection Area

The JL-75II adopts a rolling die softgel encapsulation mechanism, consistent with industrial softgel production equipment. Two gelatin ribbons run synchronously, while the filling material is accurately injected into the die cavities. This design ensures that the encapsulation process closely simulates industrial production, providing reliable, scalable reference data for seamless scale-up.

Laboratory Tumble Dryer

After encapsulation, softgel capsules are transferred to the matching laboratory tumble dryer for initial drying and shape setting. The controlled, gentle drying process is specifically designed for small-batch samples, effectively maintaining capsule integrity and preventing deformation—ensuring the quality of test samples.

PLC Touch Screen Operation Interface

The touch screen HMI (Human-Machine Interface) provides clear visualization of all key operating parameters, enabling intuitive operation. Process settings (such as temperature, speed, and injection volume) can be easily adjusted to meet different experimental requirements, significantly improving R&D efficiency and reducing operational complexity.
