OPEM CR100

• Production of single-serve coffee capsules for domestic and commercial use.
• Packaging of ground coffee into pre-formed or form-fill-seal capsules.
• Manufacturing of portioned beverage products for vending and retail markets.
• Integration into automated coffee processing and packaging lines.

Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, output commonly ranges from 50 to 200 capsules per minute, depending on the number of lanes and product specifications.

Capsule compatibility

Units of this type are typically configured for specific capsule formats, such as Nespresso, Lavazza, or K-Cup, often requiring change parts for other types.

Filling accuracy

Commonly features volumetric or auger dosing systems, providing typical filling accuracy within +/- 0.1 to 0.5 grams for ground coffee.

Sealing method

Units commonly employ heat sealing for lids, ensuring an airtight seal for product freshness.

Integrated packaging

Many systems include integrated secondary packaging, such as form-fill-seal for individual or multi-capsule bags.

Power supply

Typically requires a three-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with varying power consumption depending on line complexity.

Materials of construction

Product contact parts are commonly made from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., AISI 304 or 316) to meet hygiene standards.

• What maintenance is typically required for a capsule filling line?

  Routine maintenance commonly involves cleaning, lubrication of moving parts, inspection of seals and wear parts, and calibration of dosing systems. Regular checks of pneumatic and electrical components are also advised.

• Can this type of machine handle different coffee grinds?

• What utilities are needed to operate a capsule production line?
