The structural composition of the fully automatic traditional Chinese medicine pill making machine can be summarized into the following core modules:
1、 Core work module
1. Squeezing strip system
Hopper: Designed with a large diameter (some models use conical or flipping plates), it is convenient for feeding and equipped with a pressure plate flipping mechanism to prevent the "shelf material" (overhead blockage) of the medicine. The medicine is extruded by a screw propeller and forms a uniform medicine strip through the dispensing nozzle. Some models support dual dispensing or triple dispensing modes to improve efficiency.
Heating component: Built in electric heating tube pre heats the medicine strip, reduces viscosity, and ensures smooth and continuous dispensing.
2. Pill making and molding system
Cutting and rolling integrated mechanism: The medicine strip is synchronously introduced into the pill making blade wheel through the guide wheel, and the rolling cutter cuts at high speed and cooperates with the rolling groove to roll into pills. The cutting speed can be adjusted through a continuously variable speed knob (usually 6-30 revolutions per minute) to precisely match the dispensing speed.
Modular mold: By replacing the nozzle with different aperture sizes and matching pellet making knives, it can adapt to various pellet diameter specifications ranging from 3mm to 12mm.
3. Anti sticking treatment system
Alcohol anti sticking device: Before the medicine strip enters the pill making knife, the amount of alcohol dripping is controlled by a ball valve, and combined with the physical cleaning of the brush on the outside of the knife wheel, it prevents the medicine from sticking to the knife surface.
2、 Auxiliary function module
1. Power transmission components
The main motor drives the worm gear reducer or cycloidal pinwheel mechanism to ensure smooth squeezing and pill making actions; Some models use frequency conversion technology to independently regulate the speed of strip and pellet cutting, achieving power matching optimization.
2. Coating and drying unit
Integrated water pill coating machine (optional), achieves pill coloring or sugar coating wrapping through rotary polishing; Electric heating tubes or hot air modules provide low-temperature drying and synchronously complete pill shaping.
3、 Structural characteristics of the whole machine
1. Material and Compliance: All components (hopper, thruster, knife wheel, etc.) and shells that come into contact with the drug material are made of stainless steel, which supports quick disassembly and cleaning and complies with GMP standards.
2. Box frame design: Horizontal strip layout reduces volume (typical size is about 546 × 321 × 247mm), with a total weight of 30-55kg, suitable for compact scenarios such as laboratories and clinics.
3. Intelligent control interface: integrated speed control knob, heating switch and emergency braking device, simple and intuitive operation panel, and some models are equipped with PLC automatic speed control system.
4、 Key technological highlights
1. Continuously variable speed synchronization: By dynamically adjusting the cutting and dispensing speed through a mechanical gearbox or electronic frequency converter, the roundness of the pellets is ensured to be consistent.
2. Modular maintenance: The hopper adopts a split design (with the flap shaft as the boundary), and the pellet production gearbox integrates a lubrication system, greatly reducing the failure rate and cleaning difficulty.
The fully automatic traditional Chinese medicine pill making machine achieves continuous automated production from medicinal materials to formed pills through the coordination of the above structure, with both high-precision adaptability and compliance safety.
