Desktop counting machine is a small mechanical device specifically designed for efficient and accurate counting and dispensing of solid particles such as capsules and pills. This type of machine is named after its compact design and is very suitable for use in laboratory environments, small production sites, or quality control departments.

Basic Structure

Desktop counting machines usually consist of the following main parts:

Feeding system: responsible for uniformly feeding the granular materials to be counted into the counting area. Common feeding methods include vibration feeding and spiral feeding.

Counting system: This is the core part of the particle counting machine, usually using photoelectric sensors or weighing sensors to achieve particle counting. The photoelectric sensor counts particles by detecting the number of times they pass through the beam, while the weighing sensor calculates the number of particles by measuring the weight change of the material.

Control system: Modern desktop counting machines are equipped with microprocessors or PLC control systems, which can achieve automatic control and data processing of the equipment. Users can set parameters such as counting quantity, packaging speed, etc. through touch screen or button input.

Packaging system: After counting is completed, the materials will be automatically packaged into pre prepared containers. The packaging methods can be gravity packaging, pneumatic packaging, or robotic arm packaging.

working principle

The working principle of a desktop counting machine can be divided into the following steps:

Material feeding: The operator places the granular material to be counted into the feeding trough.

Material conveying: Through the feeding system, materials are evenly conveyed to the counting area.

Particle counting: When particles pass through the counting sensor, the sensor will detect the passage of particles in real time and transmit the data to the control system. The control system monitors in real-time according to the set counting target.

Packaging: Once the set counting quantity is reached, the control system will instruct the packaging system to automatically package the granular material into the container.

Cleaning and maintenance: The counting machine needs to be regularly cleaned and maintained during use to ensure the normal operation and counting accuracy of the equipment.
