Operation Process

New Technology vol.1

Development of a decompression system using vacuum technology

New vacuum decompressing system has solved the problem of increasing pressure in a capsule by decompressing the capsule's inside and its surroundings.

Mechanism of new vacuum decompressing system

  • Inside the vacuum decompressing system unit

  • The vacuum decompressing system unit operation section

Vacuum decompressing flow
  • 1.Operate vacuum pump and make vacuous.
  • 2.Adjust the vacuum pressure
  • 3.Adjust the vacuum flow
  • 4.The suction timing is set in advance with mechanical parameters.
    A vacuum suction valve is opened at a set timing to start vacuum decompression.
    A vacuum suction valve is closed at a set timing to finish vacuum decompression.
  • 5.As soon as the suction valve is closed, the vacuum breakdown valve is opend to release the vacuum state.
New Technology vol.2

A compact drying unit of high efficiency desing

Stack 20 drying plates and dry with blower fan while capsules drops between plates.
This keeps 400 capsules in the drying unit for at least 7 minutes and dries them.
Designed a compact and high efficiency drying unit.

Apply a band-sealing to the capsule and transfer it to the drying unit.
