SFK Industrial Capsule Filling Machine Models
SFK-1503 Industrial Capsule Filling Machine
The SFK-1503 is the entry model in the industrial SFK range. It has a rated output of 92,000 capsules per hour and uses 12 boreholes.
Its smaller closed dimensions make it suitable for manufacturers that need industrial production capability but do not require the maximum output of the SFK-2500 or SFK-3000.
industrial production requiring approximately 92,000 capsules per hour, contained material handling and a comparatively compact machine footprint.
SFK-2500 Industrial Capsule Filling Machine
The SFK-2500 is designed for higher-volume capsule production. It provides a rated capacity of 150,000 capsules per hour and uses 18 boreholes.
This model offers a middle capacity between the SFK-1503 and SFK-3000, making it suitable for facilities that require increased throughput without selecting the highest-output model.
medium-to-high-volume pharmaceutical production requiring a balance between production capacity and equipment investment.
SFK-3000 Industrial Capsule Filling Machine
The SFK-3000 is the highest-capacity model in this industrial range. It provides a rated production capacity of 180,000 capsules per hour and uses 21 boreholes.
It is intended for high-volume production environments where production capacity is the primary selection factor.
large-scale pharmaceutical and nutraceutical facilities requiring up to 180,000 capsules per hour.

11Industrial Filling Applications
The SFK industrial capsule filler can be configured for different solid filling materials. Each application should be evaluated using representative material before the final dosing system and production speed are confirmed.

Versatile Material Compatibility
Configurable dosing solutions for single or multi-component formulations tailored to specific pharmaceutical and technical requirements.
Pharmaceutical Powder
Configured for pharmaceutical powders with different densities and flow characteristics. Key evaluation factors include:
- Bulk & tapped density & particle-size distribution
- Flowability, static behavior & moisture sensitivity
- Target fill weight & required weight consistency
Pharmaceutical Pellets
Ideal for filling pellets and multiparticulate formulations into hard capsules. Key evaluation factors include:
- Pellet diameter & particle-size distribution
- Surface coating, friability & bulk density
- Capsule size & target dosage output
Powder & Pellet Combination
Fills powder and pellets into the same capsule using separate dosing arrangements. Configuration depends on:
- Powder properties & pellet size/density
- Dosage of each component & capsule size
- Required material separation in dosing
Mini-Tablets / Tablets
Configured for precise filling of tablets into hard capsules (with or without powder/pellets). Requirements include:
- Tablet diameter & thickness dimensions
- Number of tablets per capsule
- Sample trial prior to finalizing feeding system
