- Typical throughput
- For this class of equipment, product feed rates commonly reach up to 11,000 items per minute, with container rates up to 120 per minute on twin-lane systems.
- Product compatibility
- Units of this type typically handle a wide range of product sizes, commonly from 3mm to 25mm, including coated/uncoated tablets and soft/hard gelatine capsules.
- Container compatibility
- Typically accommodates containers from 15mm diameter x 25mm height up to 125mm diameter x 300mm height.
- Counting range
- Commonly counts from 10 to 10,000 items per container.
- Construction material
- Units are typically constructed from stainless steel, suitable for pharmaceutical environments.
- Control system
- Modern units commonly feature HMI touch screen controls, often from brands like Allen Bradley, for intuitive operation.
- Power supply
- Typically requires a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with a compressed air supply for pneumatic functions.
- Footprint
- A twin-lane conveyor system of this specification typically requires a footprint of approximately 3.3m in length for the conveyor section alone, plus the counting head.
