The disclosure relates to a capsule weighing device and to a capsule filling device having at least one such capsule weighing device. The capsule weighing device includes a measuring unit and a capsule measuring receiver for holding a capsule. The capsule measuring receiver is positioned at the side of the measuring unit with reference to the weight force direction and includes a capsule measuring channel which is continuous in the weight force direction and has a releasable locking mechanism for the capsule. The capsule filling device may include a receiving station for empty capsules and ejection station for filled capsules, wherein a first capsule weighing device is arranged on the input side of the receiving station for tare weighing, and wherein a second capsule weighing device is arranged on the output side of the ejection station for gross weighing.

A method is for producing individual dosing quantities of a powdered product via a drum dosing device. Individual masses of multiple ejected dosing quantities are sequentially determined. A mass mean value is formed and compared to a predetermined inner target mass range. If the mass mean value is inside the range, the level of the partial vacuum acting on the dosing opening in the filling position remains unchanged, and the above formation of a mass mean value begins anew. If the mass mean value is outside the range, an adapted partial vacuum is ascertained such that in the case of excessively low mass mean value, the level of the partial vacuum is increased, and in the case of excessively high mass mean value, the level of the partial vacuum is decreased. The adapted partial vacuum is applied to the dosing opening in the filling position.
