Introduction

Different from the two-step manufacturing (shaping and filling) of hard gelatin capsule, the soft gelatin capsule is made on a rotating mould in a continuous one-step operation. Gelatin skin made of gelatin and glycerol passed through two die rolls facing each other and continuously rotating in reverse cycles and forms its shape in the mould cavity. The size and shape of the soft gelatin capsule are determined by the mould cavity. Material filling and sealing of gelatin skin is carried out in the same time so that the filling process ends right before the finish of sealing.
