How The Rx-4 Tablet & Capsule Counter Works

It’s simple. Place any quantity of tablets or capsules on the Rx-4’s turntable disc surface, enter-in the counting mode and desired quantity on the keypad, press “Start” and let the Rx-4 Automatic Tablet & Capsule Counter do the rest.

The Rx-4 is fast — counting tablets and capsules at a rate of up to 500 pills per minute — and accurate, virtually eliminating miscounts. It is also easy to clean, requires no human contact with tablets or capsules, and its compact design fits into any counter-top workstation.

The Rx-4 features three counting modes to perform any counting task:

SINGLE MODE (SGL)

Simply enter the quantity and the designated number of tablets or capsules is dispensed into the top collection drawer. When the drawer is removed, excess tablets or capsules on the disc surface are automatically deposited into the bottom drawer for return to inventory.

MULTIPLE MODE (MULTI)

Ideal for pre-packing and filling multiple medication vials with the same tablets or capsules. Enter the desired per-vial quantity and excess tablets or capsules will remain on the turntable for continuous dispensing. Use the included vial drawer attachment for Direct Vial Filling.

INVENTORY MODE (INV)

Simply press the “Start” button and the Rx-4 will count all inventory on the turntable. This is particularly useful at month-end, or in instances where medical examiners or coroners need to inventory product left behind.

Cleaning the Rx-4 Tablet & Capsule Counter

The Rx-4 automatic tablet and capsule counter is constructed using only FDA-approved, food-grade quality plastics. Cross-contamination is easily prevented with regular cleaning according to directions included in the Rx-4 operator’s manual. Cleaning the Rx-4 is simple.

The main surfaces of the Rx-4 that contact tablets and capsules are easily removed and simple to clean with a brush or a damp paper towel, cloth or alcohol pad.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every Rx-4 comes with a 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee. If the Rx-4 does not satisfy your needs within the first 30 days from the date of delivery, simply return it to us for a full refund.
The Rx-4 uses a rotating turntable and an automatic gate to feed pills through an optical infrared sensing array.  This allows for fast, accurate, hands-free counting.
Listed accuracy is 99.97%, but when used as described in the included Operator’s Manual, the Rx-4 is designed to simply not miscount.
The Rx-4 will count round, aspirin-size tablets at a rate of approximately 500 per minute, and will count large capsules at approximately 350 per minute.  Even at its slowest speed, The Rx-4 is still faster and more accurate than hand-counting.

No – the Rx-4 is not a measuring device (like a pharmacy scale) so it cannot partially work.  Therefore, it requires no calibration.

The Rx-4 is capable of counting about 95% of available medications.  It can count tablets, capsules, and softgels in sizes up to 1/2″ (13mm) in diameter and 1″ (26mm) in length.  With the optional Large Pill Sensor Cover, it can count pills up to 3/4″ in diameter.  It can count any pill as small as 3mm.

The Rx-4’s capacity varies based on the size of the tablet or capsule being counted, but the approximate capacity of the disc surface is 300 pills.  However, the Rx-4’s open design enables the user to continuously pour pills onto the turntable as they are being counted and dispensed.

That depends. Semi-rounded, symmetrically-shaped items like oblong beads and hex nuts can work quite well.  Asymmetrical items with sharp corners and/or odd shapes such as screws or flat-backed crystals do not.  Also, spherical, ball-shaped items do not behave properly on the turntable.  Feel free to contact us if you want to send in some samples to test.

The Large Pill Sensor Cover is for counting tablets with a diameter over 1/2 inch. Typically, this applies to larger pills, specifically certain animal medications. Large capsules up to 1 inch in length do not require the Large Pill Sensor Cover.

Yes – the Rx-4 is constructed using only FDA-approved, food grade quality plastics.  Cross-contamination is easily prevented by regular cleaning with 70% isopropyl alcohol.
Yes – the main surfaces of the Rx-4 that contact pills are easily removed and simple to clean with 70% isopropyl alcohol.
