SGJ-I
The SGJ-I soft capsule double-layer rotary cage dryer is dedicated supporting equipment for soft capsule production lines. It is developed by combining the drying characteristics of soft capsules in production and years of practical experience in soft capsule drying processes. This equipment is designed as an alternative to the traditional tray drying method for soft capsules, and it fits into continuous soft capsule manufacturing procedures. It is suitable for commercial procurement from pharmaceutical, dietary supplement and health product manufacturing enterprises.
Compared with traditional tray drying solutions, this equipment optimizes spatial layout and drying logic, addressing common pain points in conventional drying processes such as large floor occupation, high labor demand, slow drying speed and unstable product quality. The double-layer multi-section rotary cage structure supports continuous material conveying and sectional drying, and can be seamlessly connected with automated soft capsule encapsulation equipment to form a complete production unit.

This equipment completely changes the traditional tray drying mode for soft capsules. The traditional tray drying method usually requires large floor space, involves extensive manual operation, delivers slow drying speed, and leads to unstable final product quality. The double-layer rotary cage structure of this equipment improves space utilization, and supports continuous automatic material conveying, which reduces manual dependence during the drying process.
The two support wheels at the front of the rotary cage are equipped with manually removable support wheel shafts. Operators can remove the support wheel shafts by hand without additional specialized tools, and then roll out the rotary cage directly. This design reduces the labor intensity of workers during rotary cage assembly and disassembly, and shortens the time required for equipment cleaning and routine maintenance.
The equipment achieves uniform and fast drying of soft capsules, and avoids adhesion between capsules during the drying process. Each section of the upper and lower rotary cages is equipped with a high-flow centrifugal fan, which delivers stable air flow to take away moisture from the soft capsule gelatin shell. The continuous rotation of the rotary cage keeps capsules turning during drying, so that all surfaces of the capsules contact the air flow evenly.
All parts that come into direct contact with soft capsules are made of stainless steel that meets GMP requirements. This material configuration conforms to the hygiene standards of pharmaceutical production, and reduces the risk of material contamination during the drying process. The smooth surface of stainless steel also supports convenient daily cleaning and disinfection operations.
The closed conveying and drying structure of the equipment maintains a clean working environment without extra pollution during operation. It adapts to the environmental requirements of clean production workshops, and avoids secondary pollution to soft capsules caused by external environmental factors during the drying process.
Soft capsules produced by the main encapsulation machine are delivered to the first section at the lower part of the dryer through a three-way valve, via a high-pressure air supply system. After running for the preset duration, the three-way valve cylinder switches the air path to deliver new soft capsules to the upper first section of the rotary cage, while capsules in the lower first section are automatically transferred to the lower second section of the rotary cage. This switching and conveying cycle repeats in sequence, until all upper and lower sections of the rotary cage are filled with capsules.
Each section of the upper and lower rotary cages is fitted with a high-flow centrifugal fan, which continuously extracts moisture from the soft capsule gelatin shells. After the preset drying time, when the moisture content of the soft capsule gelatin shells meets production requirements, the dried soft capsules are discharged from the upper and lower sections of the rotary cage, and enter the next procedure of the soft capsule production process.
This rotary cage dryer is designed for industrial soft capsule production lines, and it can be matched with corresponding automatic soft capsule encapsulators to form a complete production unit. It is applicable to the drying process of various conventional soft capsule products, including oil-based and suspension-based soft capsules. It serves manufacturing enterprises in pharmaceutical, dietary supplement and health product industries, and adapts to medium and large-scale commercial production demands.
This dryer is universal supporting equipment for soft capsule production lines. It is compatible with conventional specifications of soft capsules, and operators can adjust drying duration and air flow parameters according to the formula and size of different capsule products.
The support wheel shafts at the front of the rotary cage support manual disassembly without specialized tools. After removing the shafts, operators can roll out the rotary cage directly for cleaning, maintenance or product changeover.
All components in direct contact with soft capsules are manufactured with stainless steel that conforms to GMP requirements, which satisfies the hygiene compliance requirements of pharmaceutical and health product production.
