Tablet coater for precision pan coating
Achieve precise coating control for pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals, accommodating a wide range of batch sizes with quick changeovers and adjustable spray systems for consistent, high-quality end-products.

Coats and Dries Tablets Efficiently
The Multi HI-COATER® from Freund is a sophisticated tablet coating system designed for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. This system supports diverse coating requirements with interchangeable fully perforated pans, catering to batch volumes from pilot to full-scale production. The coating process is driven by AT-PRO™ Spray guns mounted on a patented manifold spray bar system, ensuring precise control over pattern and atomization airflow. This flexibility allows for efficient use in producing aspirin, multivitamins, and herbal extracts among others.
The Multi HI-COATER® accommodates film, sugar, and solvent coatings, with capacity options ranging from 11.5 to 1070 liters. Its automated, recipe-driven controls facilitate seamless integration into existing production lines, with front-of-unit pan access aiding swift changeovers within five minutes. This minimizes production downtime and maximizes throughput. The system’s optional Smart-Safe™ containment and EcoClean™ technology enhance safety and cleanliness, making it compliant with industry standards. Moreover, the construction features abrasion-resistant perforations and a sanitary mirror-smooth finish for durability and easy maintenance, supported by a continuous weld pan housing to eliminate potential leaks.
