Tablet coating pan for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries
Enhance coating efficiency with a versatile solution designed for seamless film and sugar coating processes, ensuring optimal mixing, energy savings, and consistent tablet quality.
Coats and Dries Pharmaceutical and Nutraceutical Tablets
The EFFECTA Coating Pan from IMA Group is engineered to streamline coating operations for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical tablet production. It features a perforated drum with specially designed baffles to enhance mixing and ensure uniform coating dispersion. With switchable spray guns, EFFECTA caters to both film and sugar coating processes, effectively addressing diverse product needs such as multivitamin and enteric-coated tablets. The machine offers a range of pan capacities from 18 to 750 liters, suitable for various batch sizes. Its strategically positioned outlet air duct optimizes drying while conserving energy. The integrated dosing unit minimizes spatial footprint, and easy inspection is facilitated by side doors. Through-the-wall installation capability enhances spatial integration within production lines. The MAX HMI provides intuitive control, improving operator efficiency. Compliance with industry standards ensures safe, reliable operation, while an advanced cleaning system reduces water use and downtime.
