In the pharmaceutical industry, Fully automatic pharmaceutical packaging machine production line are a crucial component of production. These machines consist of a lifting and conveying system, metering device, bag-making system, filling unit, sealing device, coding system, and finished product output. Depending on the configuration, production can reach 20-80 bags per minute or even higher. Their primary function is to quickly and accurately package a variety of pharmaceutical materials in quantitative quantities, ensuring that each bag meets quality standards. A PLC intelligent control system coordinates each step of the production line, automatically completing the lifting, weighing, filling, sealing, and coding processes for pastes, liquids, and other materials.
The production line can handle a variety of dosage forms such as tablets, capsules, granules, powders, pills, etc., and supports 7 types of packaging materials such as polyethylene, aluminum foil composite film, PVC hard film, etc. The bag making accuracy error is controlled within ±1mm, and the sealing temperature deviation does not exceed ±1℃. It is widely used in the packaging of granules, granules, powders and other products of pharmaceutical companies.
Fully automatic pharmaceutical packaging machine production line process
The fully automated equipment in a fully automatic pharmaceutical packaging machine production line is central to ensuring efficiency and regulatory compliance. A typical fully automatic tablet, capsule, and bottle counting, filling, capping, and labeling line is the backbone of solid dosage packaging. The entire line process begins with material conveying: a bucket elevator or Z-type elevator is used for granular materials, while an inclined screw conveyor is preferred for powdered materials with poor flow properties. After being lifted into the storage hopper, the material is metered by a high-precision counting or dosing system (such as a multi-head electronic scale). The material then enters the fully automated filling and sealing line, where it completes filling, capping, and labeling. Similar integrated systems are also used in dynamic softgel production lines and other dosage forms. The packaging machine automatically completes bag making and drug filling, using processes such as heat sealing to achieve a tight seal and prevent contamination. Finally, an inkjet printer prints the information and outputs the finished product. This integrated system ensures hands-free, fully automated, and dust-free operation throughout the entire process, complying with GMP standards.

Pharmaceutical companies of different sizes need to choose suitable drug packaging machines: small pharmaceutical companies with low daily output can choose basic semi-automatic models priced between US$1,800 and US$3,000, which have basic metering and filling functions, require manual assistance, can meet small-scale drug production and have low maintenance costs; medium-sized pharmaceutical companies with moderate daily output should choose fully automatic models priced between US$3,000 and US$8,000, which can automatically complete loading, metering, sealing and other processes, with an output of hundreds of packages per hour, which can improve efficiency to meet medium-scale drug production; large pharmaceutical companies with large output should adopt high-speed, multi-functional large-scale fully automatic drug packaging machines starting at US$10,000, which have the function of automatically detecting and rejecting unqualified drugs, and can produce thousands of packages per hour to ensure large-scale production.
What are the application areas of Fully automatic pharmaceutical packaging machine production line?
In the production of solid preparations, the tablet packaging line integrates a fully automatic tablet packaging machine, which supports three-side or four-side sealing packaging of solid medicines such as sugar-coated tablets, plain tablets, and capsules, with excellent moisture-proof and light-proof properties; in the modern packaging of traditional Chinese medicine, for large honeyed pills such as Liuwei Dihuang Pills, a gravity slide cartoning machine with a pill counting sensor is used to replace the traditional wax shell packaging, solving the adhesion problem; in clinical trial drugs, the modular cartoning machine can handle small batches of 5-500 boxes by quickly changing molds, and supports personalized instruction manual folding and serial number coding; for sterile product packaging, some models integrate a weight detection module, which can automatically reject missing or insufficient ampoules to ensure the compliance of liquid preparation packaging.
Fully automatic pharmaceutical packaging machine production line applicable materials
Fully automatic pharmaceutical packaging machine production line is applicable to two major types of materials: granular and powder. The equipment has different packaging forms and processing issues when handling two different materials.
Granular drugs usually use a drop-type weighing and automatic filling system. The bag types are mostly back-sealed bags, three-side sealed bags or four-side sealed bags. Some models support customized packaging such as self-supporting bags and corner-inserted bags. This system is suitable for the packaging of irregular particles such as cold granules, vitamin tablet granules, and granules. In the modern packaging of traditional medicinal materials such as wolfberry and Panax notoginseng powder, the secondary compaction process of the inserting mechanism effectively solves the problem of filling volume differences caused by material sedimentation. The core of granular packaging is to solve the density problem of fluffy materials.
Powdered drugs use a spiral metering and filling system to avoid powder flying and ensure metering accuracy. In terms of bag types, pillow bags, sealed flat bags or three-side sealed bags with easy-tear edges are commonly used. Some models also support multi-layer materials such as aluminum foil bags and composite film bags to ensure the requirements of light-proof, moisture-proof and oxidation-proof drugs. This system is suitable for the packaging of different powder materials such as medicinal protein powder, medicinal powder, and Chinese medicine powder. The focus of powder packaging is dust prevention and sealing.
