Tablet coating system for pharmaceuticals and supplements

Enhance tablet coating efficiency with flexible, replaceable pans that ensure optimal uniformity and batch management for high-precision pharmaceutical and supplement production.

Coats Tablets with Precision and Consistency

The Thomas Perforated Coating Machine, available through AUSTAR, revolutionizes tablet coating processes with its innovative design. This machine features automatic control and batch management capabilities, utilizing the TAAC software model to optimize economic benefits while maintaining stable process conditions. The replaceable coating pan design offers flexibility for research, pilot testing, and full-scale production, accommodating various batch sizes and product types.

The coating machine excels in creating uniform coatings on pharmaceutical, health care, and food tablets, ensuring quality across products like pain relief and multivitamin tablets. The cylindrical pan maximizes coating area, enhancing efficiency and uniformity, while the spiral-type stirring paddle ensures effective mixing, even for tablets with lower hardness.

With its bypass design for process air intake and central tube spray boom technology, the machine minimizes disturbances, ensuring a stable coating environment. It supports high containment operations at OEB3-OEB5 levels, making it suitable for highly toxic and active products. Additionally, the machine is engineered for energy efficiency and integrates seamlessly into existing production lines with its advanced automation capabilities.
