Laboratory coating machine cGMP Tablet Coating Machine

for film coatingcontinuousbenchtop

Overview
Tablet coating machine engineered for laboratory to production-scale operation. Customisable units provide precision spraying, controlled drying and uniform coating for film, sugar and aqueous applications in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and ayurvedic manufacturing.

Key Features

• Capacity: Models from laboratory (6", 12", 15") to production pans up to 72".
• Construction: SS316 / SS304 with SS316L product contact parts; cGMP‑compliant hygienic design.
• Pan speed control via VFD for consistent coating distribution.
• Integrated hot air blower with auto cutoff and inlet air temperature PID control.
• Optional exhaust blower with wet scrubber and optional HEPA inlet filtration for dust control.
• Peristaltic pump with precision spray gun and adjustable mounting for controlled dosing.
• Solution preparation tank with stirrer and trolley for mobility.
• Easy‑access pan and smooth internal finishes for cleaning and contamination control.
• Safety: emergency stop, overload protection and main power isolation.

Available Configurations & Typical Uses

• Laboratory models: Compact R&D units (6", 12", 15") with batch capacities ~200 g to 5 kg for formulation development and scale‑up trials.
• Production models: 24" (small commercial), 36" (medium), 48" (large) and up to 72" (extra‑large) for pilot and commercial production.
• Coating applications: film coating, sugar coating, aqueous coating, enteric, gelatin, compression and controlled/modified‑release coatings.

Why choose these machines

• Uniform coating via engineered perforated pan and optimized internal baffles.
• GMP hygienic design with SS316L contact surfaces for corrosion resistance and ease of cleaning.
• Scalable range from lab to full production with industrial‑grade drive and components.
• Energy‑efficient air handling and VFD drives for reduced consumption.
• User‑friendly controls with real‑time pan RPM and temperature monitoring; modular assemblies for maintenance.

Working Principle

• Tablet loading: tablets loaded into rotating pan; continuous rotation ensures movement and exposure.
• Spraying: atomizing spray gun(s) apply coating while tablets tumble; spray positioning is adjustable for even distribution.
• Drying: conditioned hot air evaporates solvents; controlled airflow and temperature enable proper film formation.
• Mixing & uniformity: internal baffles promote mixing and reduce sticking for consistent coating thickness.
• Final drying: stabilises coating layer for storage stability and durability.

Construction & Major Components

• Coating pan/chamber with internal mixing baffles.
• Spray system: peristaltic pump and spray gun(s) with adjustable stand.
• Heating & air handling: blower(s), heater(s), inlet filtration (HEPA optional), exhaust management and optional wet scrubber.
• Drive system: main motor with VFD, blower and stirrer motors sized per model.
• Control panel: main switch, pan speed control, blower/heater controls, peristaltic pump control, inlet air PID, monitoring and overload protection.
