Your Source for Changsung’s Industry-Leading Softgel Encapsulation Machines

Softgel encapsulation machines have become increasingly popular as their benefits for pharmaceutical, nutritional supplement, food, and holistic applications offer cost-effective, quality, and consistent doses. In fact, the benefits of softgel encapsulation go beyond standard applications - we have customers who utilize our softgel machines for CPG products such as paint balls!
 
The options afforded by softgel encapsulation machines are a central reason why customers opt to use them for their products. Key International is proud to be the North American distributor of Changsung’s line of softgel encapsulation machines. Changsung has been the #1 manufacturer & supplier of softgel manufacturing machines in the world since 1972. Since becoming the N.A. distributor for Changsung, we’ve been able to experience first-hand how great these machines are, offering a diverse range of outputs in a cost-effective, high-quality manner.
 
The Softgel Advantage
 
Softgels are an oral form of dosage most commonly used in pharmaceutical and nutritional supplement applications, however their uses expand into other industries as well. Softgels consist of a gelatin-based shell, filled with liquid containing the active ingredients of said pharmaceuticals, which offer some advantages over your typical tablet or capsule. These benefits include:
 
  • Patient-friendly dosage of otherwise unpalatable liquids with displeasing odors or tastes
  • More rapid dispersion of active ingredients over other oral applications
  • Higher degrees of uniformity and reproducibility are achieved because dosage units are easier to meter
  • Hermetically sealed, preventing contamination, thus reducing risk
 
At Key International, we offer a full range of softgel encapsulation machines from Changsung. From pilot production to high-speed mass production, Key International offers softgel machines for your operation’s needs, as the equipment is made with the operator in mind. Featuring an easy-to-use touchscreen, you’ll have the ability to adjust production speeds, fill volumes, and gel thickness. The automatic fill adjustment (AFA) control automatically detects product fill levels. The servo driven motor helps with increased productivity and output.
 
Additionally, Changsung softgel encapsulation machines have been qualified to meet the strict standards of the FDA and GMP requirements. This equipment maintains the SCADA System and 21 CFR Part 11 needs, and is constructed using 316 stainless steel for pharmaceutical applications. Let’s explore some of the Changsung products Key International is pleased to offer.
 
Quality, Reliable Softgel Encapsulation Machines from Changsung
 
Generally speaking, Changsung softgel encapsulation machines come in three size categories: small, medium and large - offering the highest production levels in the industry. Key International currently sells more than 5 different Changsung softgel encapsulation machines to meet the needs of every customer and their production requirements.
 
The SRD Servo Softgel Encapsulation Machine is designed for pilot production for new products and semi-large scale production. Featuring a max die roll size of 100mm x 100mm with a die roll speed of 3 rpm, the SRD is compact in nature and capable of producing both animal and oluscap softgels. The SRD features several different components including automatic gelatin thickness (AGT) and the medicine pump & block which accurately injects doses; both easily controlled by the user-friendly touch screen. This machine is economical but highly efficient with maximum capabilities of 16,560 softgel capsules/hour.
 
If the SRD doesn’t meet the needs of your production levels, we have several larger options available! A great example is the Changsung 380SRP machine. The 380SRP has similar features to the SRD Servo model, however the 380SRP has a larger footprint to match its larger capabilities and has a maximum die roll speed of 4 rpm and a size of 103mm x 183mm. The 380SRP has several output levels from 27,600 to 51,840 capsules/hour depending on die roll size and speed. The built-in printing system provides immediate results for your operation and is easily accessible through the touch screen controls. As an added benefit, the 380SRP features reduced noise and low vibrations, making this model quieter than ever before.
 
Need even larger yet? Key International also offers the 780SR and 880SR Softgel Encapsulation Machines. The 780SR machine continues to meet the needs of our customers by maintaining the same qualifications as Changsung’s other softgel encapsulation machines by being fully compliant with FDA and GMP standards and meeting the needs of 21 CFR Part 11. The 780SR has an easy-to-attach capsule stripper and ribbon extruder with adjustable spreader box to complete your operation’s needs. The 780SR’s maximum speed is 5.3 rpm, with a die roll size of 150mm x 290mm, increasing output capabilities from 81,600 capsules/hour up to 157,500 capsules/hour.
 
The 880SR is Changsung’s largest softgel encapsulation machine. While larger in size and output capabilities, the 880SR maintains low noise levels and vibrations, perfect safety, and a no-slide valve. The machine’s maximum speed is 6 rpm, with a die roll size of 150mm x 320mm, capable of maximum outputs from 113,400 capsules/hour to 220,320 capsules/hour based on die roll speed and size. The 880SR benefits our customers who require a high-speed softgel encapsulation machine for mass production.
