An apparatus for filling capsules comprises a conveyor wheel, on the circumference of which a plurality of capsule holders is provided a conveyor wheel drive that alternately passes through stopping times and movement times, so that the capsule holders move along the conveying path in cycles, and a plurality of process stations disposed along the conveying path. The process stations comprise at least one supply station for supplying capsules to be filled to the conveyor wheel, at least one opening station for opening the capsules by separating the upper and lower capsule parts, at least one filling station for filling the lower capsule parts, at least one closing station for closing the filled capsules by connecting the upper and lower capsule parts, and at least one discharge station for discharging the filled capsules.
