Continuous coater for tablet coating
In tablet manufacturing, achieving consistent coating quality and weight gain is a challenge, especially when dealing with varying production scales from clinical trials to mass production. Traditional batch processes often struggle with efficiency and quality control, leading to potential delays and increased costs.
Achieve continuous coating with modular technology
The CROMA continuous coater, by IMA Active, is designed to offer a truly continuous coating process for tablets. Its modular design allows flexibility, handling throughputs ranging from 20-100 kg/h and coating weight gains of 2-4%, depending on tablet and film types. Its unique product movement system ensures a seamless flow of tablets through each module. CROMA is easily scalable, making it suitable for product development, clinical trials, and full-scale manufacturing without the need for extensive scale-up procedures. The system’s perforated drum modules are fully accessible for inspection and cleaning with removable side panels, enhancing operational efficiency. The integration of PAT tools and mathematical models for process control ensures consistent quality in coated tablets.
