The present invention relates to a gelatin sheet supply device for supplying gelatin supplied in a liquid state after spreading the same in a sheet form, in a capsule forming machine for forming medicine and food capsules by using the gelatin as a raw material. The gelatin sheet supply device comprises: a spreader box having a discharge outlet formed at the lower end thereof in order to supply liquid gelatin to a casting drum in a sheet form; a driving device provided in the spreader box so as to adjust an opening width of the discharge outlet of the spreader box by a driving motor; a thickness detection device provided on a path through which a gelatin sheet is supplied, so as to measure the thickness of the gelatin sheet discharged through the spreader box; and a control unit for driving the driving device by receiving a signal from the thickness detection device. Accordingly, the gelatin sheet supply device automatically controls the thickness adjustment of the gelatin sheet so as to precisely adjust the thickness of the gelatin sheet, and can shorten a setting time of the capsule forming machine and prevent unnecessary waste of raw gelatin. |
