NJP-400 Capsule Filling Machine Price and Cost

The NJP-400 capsule filling machine price depends on your final configuration. To provide an accurate factory quotation, our engineering team will confirm your capsule size, filling material, target output, electrical standard, required molds and optional equipment. Optional equipment may include capsule feeders, vacuum feeders, powder loading systems, dust collection equipment, capsule polishers, metal detectors and downstream packaging equipment. Send us your production requirements to receive a suitable machine configuration, technical proposal and factory-direct quotation.

Which Capsule Filling Machine Fits Your Production Needs?

The right capsule filling machine depends on your required output, labor plan, available space, and expected production growth. Compare semi-automatic equipment, the NJP-400 automatic capsule filler, and an NJP-800 model before choosing the most suitable solution.

Decision focusLower initial automation needBalanced capacity and footprintHigher-volume production planning
When to Choose Each Option

Choose a semi-automatic capsule filling machine when production volume is low, operator involvement is acceptable, and your main focus is pilot production or very small batches.

Choose the NJP-400 when you need a reliable step up from semi-automatic operation, with up to 24,000 capsules per hour in a compact automatic layout.

Choose an NJP-800 when your daily demand, shift schedule, or expansion plan requires output beyond the NJP-400 capacity range.

The final model selection should be based on your capsule size, filling material, daily output target, production layout, and required auxiliary equipment.

Operation, Cleaning, and Maintenance Support

A reliable capsule-filling line depends on correct operation, cleaning, routine inspection, and timely replacement of wear parts. Before operation, operators should follow the supplied manual and confirmed process settings for the actual formulation.

Recommended maintenance topics include:
1 Routine cleaning after production
2 Inspection of capsule separation and filling areas
3 Checking vacuum performance
4 Monitoring dosing-disc adjustment
5 Reviewing change parts when changing capsule sizes
6 Keeping a suitable spare-parts inventory
7 Recording production performance and troubleshooting events
