Process advantages
Pan coating is used primarily for masking taste or for applying protective
films.
Large particles, which are not suitable for the fluid bed process
(e.g. tablets, capsules and large pellets), can be coated with this
process.
The main advantage is the gentle mixing and coating of tablets due
to the geometry of the drum and the Fischer mixing blades specially developed by
Glatt. These ensure absolutely homogeneous mixing with minimum stress on the
product.
Overall, the sum of all the measures taken together guarantees an
extraordinarily high coating quality.
The shortest possible process times can
be achieved due to the fully perforated drum. |

Principle of operation
Glatt offers Drum Coaters
with batch sizes from 500g to 2000kg/batch.
When Film Coating is carried out in
the Glatt pan coater, a film solution is applied to the particles from above by
means of a two-material nozzle.
The particles are moved and mixed by the
rotating drum. The introduction of the process air evaporates the fluid and
dries the film coating. Softening of the particle surface is avoided by the
selection of the appropriate process parameters.

The necessary efficient heat transfer is achieved by the fully perforated
cylindrical part of the drum. In the figurative sense, this also applies to Sugar Coating.
