The common ones\u00a0are #0~#5.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px;\">The preparation of empty capsules roughly goes through the following steps: sol-dipping-drying-shelling-cutting-finishing. In addition to medicines in hard capsules, common excipients include diluents such as starch, sucrose, microcrystalline, cellulose, lactose, and magnesium oxide. Filling empty capsules with medicines can be done manually when preparing small quantities; when preparing large quantities, they can be filled with the help of plastic or stainless steel capsule fillers; in the industrial mass production of capsules, automatic capsule filling machines are used.<\/p>\n<ul class=\" list-paddingleft-2\" style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px;\">Soft Capsule<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px;\">The method of making soft capsules can be divided into two types: compression method (molding method) and dripping method.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px;\">&gt;Suppression method:<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 10px;\">The first step is to prepare capsule material glue.
