What is Pharmaceutical Granule Packaging Machine?
Pharmaceutical Granule Packaging Machine is suitable for pharmaceutical granules with diverse characteristics. These granules vary in particle size (0.1mm-5mm), density (lightweight, such as traditional Chinese medicine granules, heavyweight, such as Western medicine sustained-release granules), flowability (easily flowing or prone to agglomeration), and hygroscopicity (e.g., probiotic granules require moisture resistance). These characteristics place stringent demands on the packaging machine: high-precision metering (±1% accuracy), moisture- and oxidation-resistant packaging, a dust-free and sterile operating environment, and the ability to accommodate a variety of packaging specifications (e.g., 1g-1000g/bag).
The packaging bags are typically made of composite films (such as PET/AL/PE and NY/PE) to ensure barrier properties, tear resistance, and heat-sealability. Modern pharmaceutical granule packaging machines integrate automated metering, bag making, filling, sealing, and coding functions, suitable for various bag sizes, including three-side seal, four-side seal, and back-seal. Output varies depending on the machine model, typically ranging from 30 to 200 bags per minute, with prices ranging from $7,000 to $10,000, depending on the level of automation and production capacity.

Pharmaceutical Granule Packaging Machine Equipment Types
Pharmaceutical Granule Packaging Machines are available in various types: single-lane for small and medium-sized production; multi-lane for high-speed, high-efficiency production of large batches; vertical models save space and offer a variety of bag types; horizontal models are suitable for large volumes; multi-head weighing systems offer high weighing accuracy; and continuous bagging models reduce film waste and accommodate special packaging needs.
Single-lane Granule Packaging Machines: Suitable for small and medium-sized production, they feature a simple structure and easy operation, with a typical packaging speed of 30-60 bags/minute. They are primarily used for packaging small-sized pharmaceutical granules (1g-100g), such as granules and Chinese herbal medicine slices.
Multi-lane High-Speed Granule Packaging Machine: Utilizing multi-lane synchronous filling technology, it can pack 1-10g/lane at speeds of 100-300 bags/minute, significantly improving production efficiency. It's suitable for large-volume, single-variety granule packaging, such as vitamin granules and probiotics.
Vertical Granule Packaging Machine: Utilizing a roll-film, integrated design for automatic bag making, filling, and sealing, it saves space and is suitable for small to medium-sized packages (1g-500g). It offers a variety of bag types, including back-seal, three-side seal, and four-side seal. It's widely used in automated packaging of pharmaceuticals, such as granules, powders, and pellets.
