Machine overview
Pharmaceutical Conveyor & Material Handling Manufacturer in India
H M Pharma Machines manufactures the Turntable in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, cosmetic, food, chemical and allied production applications.
The Turntable uses manual or conveyor receiving onto the rotating deck for product movement. Its approved process completes when adjustable guide rail transfers containers to the connected conveyor.
Detailed engineering for the Turntable aligns variable-speed drive and guide setting matched to line demand with the approved application, target output, utility schedule and final line layout before the GA drawing is released.

Operating process
How the Turntable Works
The turntable uses a rotating deck and adjustable guide rails to accumulate, feed or collect stable containers within a compact buffer between line operations.
Load the Rotating Deck
Containers arrive from a conveyor or are placed manually onto the approved receiving area of the deck.
Build a Controlled Buffer
The motor-driven deck keeps containers moving and temporarily absorbs differences between upstream and downstream line rates.
Guide Containers to the Exit
Adjustable rails progressively direct the accumulated containers toward the selected feed or collection path.
Release or Collect Containers
Containers leave in a guided stream onto the connected conveyor, or remain accessible for orderly manual collection when configured as an outfeed table.
Applications & selection
Built Around Your Product and Production Line
Bottle, vial and jar transfer
Bottles, vials and jars can be accumulated or fed on the rotating deck when their base is stable and the guide path matches the format.
Carton and pack movement
Cartons and packs are suitable only when their footprint, balance and surface friction allow controlled movement without tipping or scuffing.
Machine infeed and outfeed
At machine infeed or outfeed, adjustable rails direct containers between the circular deck and the connected conveyor at the approved rate.
Accumulation and line balancing
For line balancing, deck diameter, usable accumulation area and allowable container contact are selected from the production flow.
Inspection and manual packing
An outfeed turntable can provide accessible collection for inspection or manual packing when the approved product remains stable on the deck.
New and existing packaging lines
New and existing lines are accommodated by confirming rotation direction, conveyor interface, working height, guarding and available floor space.
