Automatic Cotton Inserter Machine
Leading Automatic Cotton Inserter Machine Manufacturer in China
The SMJ-180A automatic cotton inserter machine feeds, cuts and inserts pharmaceutical-grade cotton into bottles at speeds of 20–100 bottles per minute. Designed for tablet, capsule and nutraceutical bottling lines, it helps reduce product movement and breakage during handling and transportation.
Its Siemens PLC control, “no bottle, no cotton” detection and adjustable insertion settings provide consistent operation across round, square, oval and flat bottles with diameters from 20 to 100 mm.
URMACHINE's Automatic Cotton Inserter Machine Solution
Precise Cotton Feeding and Cutting
A high-torque stepper motor precisely controls the cotton feeding length, while the cutting mechanism produces consistent cotton sections for reliable insertion into every bottle.
Siemens PLC and HMI Control
Operators can adjust production speed, cotton length and operating parameters through the color touchscreen. Stored settings help shorten changeover time between different bottle formats.
Sensor detection
Photoelectric sensors detect bottle presence before each insertion cycle, preventing empty operation, reducing cotton waste and improving production reliability.
Adjustable Insertion Depth
The insertion mechanism can be adjusted according to bottle height, neck opening and available headspace to achieve stable and consistent cotton placement.

Multiple Bottle Shapes
The SMJ-180A accommodates round, oval, square and flat bottles with diameters ranging from 20 to 100 mm, supporting a wide variety of pharmaceutical packaging formats.
Up to 100 Bottles per Minute
With an adjustable output of 20–100 bottles per minute, the machine can meet the requirements of both medium-speed and high-output tablet and capsule bottling lines.
Consistent Bottle Positioning
The bottle-stopping and positioning mechanism accurately aligns each container beneath the insertion head, helping prevent missed insertions, cotton snagging and unstable placement.
Easy Bottling Line Integration
The SMJ-180A can operate independently or connect with tablet counters, desiccant inserters, capping machines, induction sealers and labeling machines to form a complete automated bottling line.

It is suitable for bottles containing tablets, capsules, softgels, vitamins, and other dry solid dosage products where headspace filling is required to prevent product breakage and migration during shipping and handling.
The SMJ-180A supports round, oval, square, and flat bottles with container diameters ranging between 20 mm and 100 mm. Switching between bottle profiles is straightforward with rapid changeover adjustments.
The standard configuration is designed for cylindrical cotton rope approximately 25 mm in diameter (medical/pharma grade). Synthetic coils, rayon, or other customized fibrous materials should be confirmed through sample compatibility testing.
Sim. Both cotton feeding length (pull length) and insertion depth settings can be easily calibrated via mechanical controls or the HMI screen according to bottle height, neck diameter, and the required amount of headspace filling.
Sim. Conveyor height, line speed, and PLC/sensor communication interfaces can be tailored to enable seamless in-line integration with upstream electronic counting/filling machines and downstream capping, induction sealing, and labeling equipment.
Sim. Customers are encouraged to provide sample bottles, target cotton material, and specific production parameters (speed, headspace volume) so our engineers can perform factory compatibility trials, machine fine-tuning, and FAT video verification prior to dispatch.
