Adjustment of Vacuum shoe (refer to Fig. 15)
Whenever the machine runs by a station, vacuum shoe goes upwards and downwards; no adjustment is
needed in most common case. Should any adjustment is needed, rotate arbor wheel of main motor with
hand crank until the vacuum separator reaches the highest position, loosen fastening nuts (left and right
thread) on both sides of regulating rod under machine bench, rotate regulating rod to adjust vacuum
separator height (clearance between upper surface of separator and the lower surface of lower die
assembly is 0~0.03mm), and then fasten the nuts. Recheck for several times until proper status is met.
Place empty capsules in the capsule-feeding unit and start vacuum pump, rotate machine with hand
crank to verify capsule are being separated.

Adjustment of The Clearance between Dosing Disk and Sealing Ring (refer to Fig. 16, 17)
The clearance between dosing disk and sealing ring should be preferably 0.03~0.08 mm. With larger
particles, the clearance may be adjusted wider. Too narrow of clearance may increase the resistance
between dosing disk and sealing ring. Should too much powder leakage or resistance occur in the
operation, adjustment the clearance. To adjust the clearance, loosen and remove five screws on the
baffle, and loosen fastening screw and nut, even rotate the five regulating bolts carefully one by one to
adjust the height of sealing ring, and check the clearance on 3~5 points, ensure every value is the same
and five adjusting sleeve connect with sealing ring. After checking, tighten fastening screw at first,
then tighten fastening nut; check the clearance again and verified, install the baffle with screw.

Adjustment of The Height of Filling Rod Retainer (refer to Fig. 19, 20, 21)
The density and volume of powder column change with the height of the filling rod. Appropriate
adjustment of filling rod height leads to precise volume of powder filling. The depth that filling rod
enters dosing disk may be decided upon the reference table and not be too deep. When filling rod
holder is at the lowest position, the “0” scale line of retainer represents that the lower surface of filling
rod is at the same level as the lower surface of dosing disk, i.e., the numerical reading aligned with the
work position line of sight glass is the very height of the lower end surface of filling rod from sealing
ring. To adjust the height, loosen the fastening screw on adjusting rod, rotate the knob on the screw
stem counterclockwise so as to raise the filling rod, and then rotate the knob clockwise to lower it to
desired height, finally tighten the fastening nut. That is to say, adjustment shall be made in the order
from high to low.

Adjustment of Powder Height Sensor (refer to Fig. 22)
Sensor is applied to control the height of powder in the powder-storing ring. The signal emitted by
sensor controls the start and stop of feeding motor. Therefore, the height of sensor decides the amount
of powder in powder tank. Appropriately adjust the height of sensor according to powder specification
and its flowability to obtain precise filling volume. To adjust the height of sensor, loosen the fastening
screw on the sensor and raise or lower the sensor. After adjustment, fasten the screw. The screw in the
upper part of sensor may control sensitivity. The distance between sensor and powder is 2~8mm.

Adjustment of Defect Capsule Rejection (refer to Fig. 23, 24)
At station 6, absorption entrance and the pushrod reciprocating vertically can reject unseparated or
other defect capsules in the upper die assembly. When capsule size is changed, this part should be
adjusted appropriately. To adjust the height of absorption entrance, loosen fastening screw and adjust
absorption to suitable position, then tighten fastening screw. The height of absorption entrance cannot
be too low, or it will absorb the separated cap on the upper die assembly hole.

Adjustment of Capsule Joining (refer to Fig.25, 26, 27)
Adjustment of length of capsule joined shall be made according to the different sizes and lengths or
when replacing capsule. The clearance between capsule locking plate and the upper die assembly
should be preferably 0.8~1 mm. The clearance can be adjusted by adjusting hand wheel. To adjust,
loosen two screws, rotate the hand wheel until the clearance is right, and fasten the screws. To adjust
the height of pushrod, place the joined capsule in the segment, adjust the length on the regulating rod
to the position that is require to lock the capsule, the locking pin should make contact with the lower
part of capsule not. If joining capsule is not normal in the course of locking, e.g., the capsule is too
long to join or too short to maintain regular shape, re-adjustment shall be made carefully. After the
adjustment, fasten the nut.
