Doypack Capsule Counting Filling Sealing Machine
Doypack Capsule Counting Filling Sealing Machine Automatic Premade Pouch Stand Up Zipper Bag For Pharma Nutraceutical
This fully integrated packaging system combines high-precision electronic capsule counting with automatic premade pouch (Doypack) handling — delivering a complete count-fill-seal solution in one compact line. Designed for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers seeking premium retail-ready Doypack packaging, the system handles the full sequence: vacuum bag pickup, date coding, zipper opening, multi-channel electronic counting, dust-free filling, pouch settling, and heat sealing. Optional nitrogen flushing extends product shelf life for oxygen-sensitive formulations.

Complete Workflow
Step 1: Bag Feeding
- Premade pouches loaded into bag magazine and picked individually by vacuum suction cups
- Servo-driven gripper transport system ensures precise pouch positioning at each station
Step 2: Date Coding & Zipper Opening
- Integrated hot stamp, inkjet, or laser printer applies batch number and expiry date
- Mechanical grippers and vacuum suction simultaneously open pouch body and zipper track
Step 3: Capsule Counting & Filling
- Multi-channel electronic counting head with photoelectric sensors achieves 99.8%+ accuracy
- Dust-free feeding chute directs counted capsules directly into the opened pouch
Step 4: Settling & Sealing
- Optional bottom vibration settles capsules below the seal zone to prevent sealing interference
- Heavy-duty heat sealing bars with independent temperature and pressure control per station
- Optional nitrogen gas flushing before final seal for extended product shelf life
Step 5: Discharge
- Finished Doypack discharged onto output conveyor for downstream metal detection, checkweighing, and case packing
Doypack Advantages for Pharmaceutical Products

- Recipe storage for multiple product SKUs with one-touch recall
- Compatible with upstream capsule filling machines and downstream metal detectors, checkweighers, labeling, and case packing systems
- CE certified with comprehensive documentation package
FAQ
Q: What types of Doypack pouches are compatible?
The TW-6 handles standard premade Doypack (stand-up) pouches, zipper pouches, flat pouches, and gusseted pouches. Bag dimensions are customizable based on your product fill count and desired retail presentation. We can configure the machine for your specific pouch size during order specification.
Q: How does Doypack packaging compare to bottle filling for capsules?
Doypack packaging offers several advantages: 70% lighter shipping weight, smaller storage footprint, better shelf differentiation, resealable zipper for consumer convenience, and lower per-unit packaging cost compared to rigid bottles with caps. It is particularly popular for nutraceutical and supplement brands targeting modern retail channels and e-commerce.
Q: Can this machine do nitrogen flushing?
Yes. Optional nitrogen gas flushing is available and recommended for oxygen-sensitive products such as probiotics, omega-3 softgels, and hygroscopic formulations. The system injects nitrogen into the pouch immediately before the final heat seal to displace ambient oxygen and extend product shelf life.
