The fully automated gelatin melting tank system is an integrated and intelligent gelatin preparation equipment developed by Beijing Sinagel Technology Development Co., Ltd. It is specially designed for softgel production lines in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmetics industries. This system realizes the whole-process automation of gelatin hydration, heating, mixing, deaeration, filtration, and transfer. It ensures batch consistency and clean operation, which is essential for regulated production plants. The fully automated gelatin melting tank system is equipped with advanced PLC and HMI control systems. It can precisely control key parameters such as temperature, viscosity, and material ratio, helping enterprises reduce manual errors and improve production efficiency.
The system is installed with high-precision temperature and level probes. These probes feed real-time data to the PLC, realizing accurate control of the gelatin melting process and avoiding overheating or insufficient melting.
The built-in vacuum deaeration function removes trapped air from the gel mass to reduce bubbles. The inline sanitary filter protects downstream encapsulation machines and tooling from impurities.
Load cells are adopted to meter gelatin, water, plasticizer, and additives by weight. This function ensures repeatable material ratios across batches and minimizes material waste.
The system is configured with spray balls and sanitary valves. It supports clean-in-place and sterilize-in-place operations, which shortens cleaning time and reduces labor intensity.
It can be seamlessly connected with upstream and downstream equipment via I/O or Ethernet. You can add holding and aging vessels as production demand grows.
The fully automated gelatin melting tank system is a core equipment for gelatin-based product production, with its main applications including:
Pharmaceutical industry: Preparing high-quality gelatin for softgel capsules containing drugs, ensuring the stability and safety of pharmaceutical formulations.
Nutraceutical industry: Producing gelatin shells for health supplement softgels such as fish oil, vitamin, and collagen products.
Cosmetics industry: Manufacturing gelatin bases for cosmetic softgels like facial masks and skincare oil capsules, meeting strict hygiene standards.

Yes, you can freely select steam or electric jacket heating according to your plant's utility conditions. The PLC HMI system will maintain the set temperature stably to ensure consistent gelatin melting quality.
The system relies on preset recipes to control water ratio, temperature ramps, and mixing speed. Weight-based dosing and vacuum deaeration further ensure that the gelatin viscosity stays within the specified range.
Definitely. The system supports flexible recipe adjustment and small-batch operation. It is ideal for enterprises that need to produce multiple types of softgel products.
Yes, the PLC/HMI system automatically logs batch data including temperature, mixing time, and material dosage. These records can be exported easily to meet audit requirements.
