Conventional Coating Pan
Conventional Coating Pan
As the name implies, the Conventional Coating Pan is used for coating a film or sugar on a food product, a pharmaceutical-grade tablet and related materials. The product coating is done by blowing hot and cold air. However, the heating system works in line with the air-blow system for safer operations.
The cluster of tablets is put into the slightly tilted coating pan, which is also filled with the coating solution. The electric engine rotates the pan, and the tablets tumble upon each other and the solution for a predefined time to ensure uniform coating.
Key Features
- The polishing pan and other coating pans can be changed easily.
- It is better for firm dosing where minimum errors are accepted.
- The stainless steel enclosure is cleanable and simple.
- The control panel helps in adjusting the temperature and the blower.
Available Sizes: 300 to 1800 mm Dia. Conventional-shaped coating pan models are available from 6” Dia to 72” Dia.
