Frequently Asked Questions
Operation & General Information
What types of products can the 12-channel counter handle?
The machine is designed to count a wide range of solid dosages, including tablets (coated or uncoated), hard gelatin capsules, softgels, pills, and other similar solid products. It works for shapes ranging from standard round tablets to oblong, oval, or custom shapes.
How do I switch the machine over for a different product size or shape?
Our 12-channel counter is designed for tool-less changeover. The main steps include:
  • Adjusting the hopper gate height to control the product flow
  • Adjusting the track guides (vibrating lanes) to match the width of the new product
  • Replacing or adjusting the discharge funnel (nozzle) to match the bottle neck size
  • Loading the pre-saved product recipe from the HMI touch screen (parameters like vibration frequency, optical sensitivity, and gate delay will auto-load)
Troubleshooting & Common Issues
What should I do if the counting is inaccurate (over-counting or under-counting)?
Counting errors are usually caused by feeding speed, dust, or sensor misalignment. Please check the following:
  • Dust Accumulation: Dust can block the infrared sensors. Wipe down the sensor glass/lenses with a dry, lint-free cloth or clean compressed air.
  • Vibration Speed: If the vibration is too fast, products may overlap (double-stack) as they pass the sensor, causing under-counting. Reduce the vibration frequency of the primary or secondary plates.
  • Product Overlap: Adjust the separation gate height so that only a single layer of tablets/capsules can pass through the lanes.
  • Static Electricity: Static can cause pills to stick together or cling to the funnel. Ensure the machine is properly grounded, or consider installing an anti-static bar.
The alarm is triggered for "Sensor Blocked" or "Dust Accumulation." How do I resolve this?
  • Pause the machine
  • Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the dust from the optical sensor windows located at the drop point of the 12 channels
  • If you are running highly dusty tablets, we highly recommend connecting a dust extraction system (industrial vacuum) to the built-in dust collection ports on the machine
  • Resume operation. If the alarm persists, check the HMI sensor diagnostics page to identify if a specific channel's sensor is failing or needs recalibration
Why is the product backing up in the discharge funnel (nozzle)?
This is usually a timing or mechanical synchronization issue:
  • Bottle Alignment: Ensure the bottle sensor is detecting the bottle correctly and the bottle is perfectly centered under the filling nozzle
  • Gate Timing: Check the HMI settings for "Gating Time" or "Dribble Feed Time." The discharge gate might be opening before the bottle is fully in place, or closing too quickly
  • Nozzle Size: Ensure the nozzle diameter is appropriate for the bottle neck. If the neck is too narrow, products may bridge and block the opening
Cleaning & Maintenance
How often should the machine be cleaned?
  • Every Shift / Product Change: Perform a standard clean down. Remove all product contact parts (hopper, vibrating plates, funnel) and clean them thoroughly to prevent cross-contamination
  • Daily: Clean the dust off the infrared sensor bars and wipe down the exterior stainless steel frame
  • Weekly: Deep clean the feeding tracks and check the pneumatic air filter/regulator for any moisture accumulation
Are the contact parts washable?
Yes. All product contact parts (hopper, vibrating lanes, feed gates, and discharge funnels) are made of 316L stainless steel (or food-grade polymers) and can be fully disassembled without tools. They can be washed with warm water and mild detergent. Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling to prevent tablets from sticking or dissolving.
Technical Specs & Integration
Can this 12-channel counter be integrated into an automatic packaging line?
Absolutely. The machine features standard upstream/downstream interlock signals. It easily integrates with bottle unscramblers, desiccant inserters, capping machines, induction sealers, and labeling machines. It uses a standard conveyor gating system (starwheel or indexing pins) to control bottle flow.
What is the typical speed/throughput of this machine?
The output depends on the bottle count, tablet size, and product characteristics. For a standard bottle count of 60 counts/bottle, a 12-channel counter typically achieves speeds of 40 to 70 bottles per minute (BPM).
