Gummy Count II™

The GummyCount™ II is a high-speed gummy counting and packaging system engineered for high-volume production of gummy supplements. Designed to maximize throughput and counting accuracy, the system combines the Pharma Packaging Systems Twin GummyCount™ II with the specially engineered GummyLift™ II, featuring integrated declumpers for consistent product flow and reliable performance.
The redesigned 2 × 8 counting configuration fills two bottles simultaneously, providing greater efficiency for today’s larger bottle counts. Integrated declumpers continuously separate gummies, reduce bridging and jamming, remove excess sugar, and ensure a consistent feed to the counting heads for counting accuracy of -0, +1. Compared with traditional weighing systems, the GummyCount™ II minimizes product giveaway while delivering fast, repeatable results.
  • High-speed gummy counting system for medium- to high-volume production.
  • Twin 2 × 8 counting configuration fills two bottles simultaneously for increased throughput.
  • Integrated GummyLift™ II with automatic declumpers improves product separation and feed consistency.
  • Accurately counts gummies while minimizing product giveaway compared to weighing systems.
  • Designed to reduce bridging, clumping, and jamming for reliable operation.
  • Built to handle free-flowing gummies, including sugar-coated and other supplement gummies.
  • Improved hygienic design allows fast cleaning and reduced changeover times.
  • High-speed performance of up to 100 bottles per minute based on 50-count fills of medium-sized gummies*.
