Abstract (en)
The invention is concerned with a method of sealing a hardshell capsule having coaxial body parts which overlap when telescopically joined with each other, thereby forming a gap around a circumference of the capsule, comprising the steps of individually applying a sealing liquid including a solvent uniformly to the external edge of the gap of a capsule to be sealed to form a liquid ring around the circumference of the capsule, removing excess sealing liquid from the exterior of the capsule, drying the capsule by applying thermal energy from outside while gently tumbling and conveying the capsule on a spiral path. <IMAGE>
