Therefore, proper storage and management of capsule molds are paramount. Using storage racks effectively prevents mold damage and contamination, while facilitating organization and retrieval, ensuring efficient and smooth production processes. However, existing storage racks present inconveniences when holding capsule molds of varying sizes. First, most traditional racks are designed with fixed dimensions, failing to flexibly accommodate various sizes of capsule molds. This can lead to molds not being securely held during storage, increasing the risk of slippage or falls, thus affecting mold precision and lifespan. Second, retrieving capsule molds of different sizes often requires time and effort from operators, especially in production processes involving frequent mold changes; this inconvenience directly impacts production efficiency.
