Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019161893A1] The invention relates to a system (1) and a method for polishing capsules (2). The system (1) according to the invention comprises a brush (5) situated at least partially inside a wall (4) disposed around an axis (Z). The brush comprises bristles (6) disposed around the axis (Z) so as to form a helical conveying ramp for the capsules (2). The lengths of the bristles (6) of the brush (5) are substantially different and a protuberance (8, 8A, 8B) is mechanically coupled to the wall (4) so as to bend at least some of the bristles (6) of the brush (5) when the latter is rotating about the axis (Z). The method according to the invention consists substantially in putting the abovementioned system into practice.
