Turnkey Softgel Manufacturing Line Configuration
You should not have to source each machine separately and then discover that the capacities, utilities or transfer points do not match. We configure the line as one connected process—from raw-material preparation to finished softgels—based on your formula, output and factory conditions.
Melt, mix and condition the gelatin mass under controlled temperature so it can form stable, uniform ribbons during encapsulation.
Mix, homogenize and, when required, deaerate the fill to support consistent dosing and product uniformity.
The encapsulation machine forms two ribbons, meters the fill and seals the capsule using matched die-roll tooling.
Transfer freshly formed capsules to the tumble-drying system to reduce surface moisture and help stabilize their shape.
Continue drying under controlled temperature, humidity and airflow until the product reaches its validated moisture target.
Inspect capsule appearance and sealing, remove nonconforming products, then connect optional counting, bottling, blister packing or secondary packaging equipment.
Softgel Production Line at a Glance
A softgel capsule production line is more than an encapsulation machine. It integrates material preparation, capsule forming and filling, controlled drying, inspection and optional packaging into one coordinated manufacturing process.
How Does a Softgel Capsule Production Line Work?
A complete line coordinates shell preparation, fill preparation, encapsulation and moisture control so every process stage supports the required finished output.
Prepare the Gelatin
Melt, mix and condition the shell mass under controlled temperature for stable ribbon formation.
Prepare the Fill Material
Mix and homogenize oils, liquids, suspensions or compatible fill materials.
Form, Fill & Seal
The rotary-die machine forms two shell ribbons, meters the fill and seals the capsule.
Initial Tumble Drying
Fresh softgels enter rotating drums to remove initial surface moisture.
Controlled Final Drying
Capsules continue drying under controlled temperature, humidity and airflow.
Inspect & Package
Finished capsules are inspected and connected to optional downstream packaging.

Choose the Right Softgel Production Line Capacity
Start with your target output, capsule specification and growth plan. Select a model below to see which platform best fits your next stage of production.
320 mm Die-Roll Softgel
Encapsulation Machine
Choose wider tooling for industrial-scale production.
Choose the HTMBRG1316DD when your project calls for a 320 mm die roll, 16 plungers per side and servo-controlled direct drive. Its 232,000-capsule/hour reference output gives high-volume manufacturers a practical alternative when tooling width and dosing configuration matter more than selecting the fastest nominal model.
