Gebr. Lödige Maschinenbau developed the LC coater series specially for coating tablets. Besides user-friendliness and ease-of-cleaning, great importance was attached to optimum process engineering. All three sub-processes relevant for film-coating of the tablets were optimised: spraying on the coating, mixing and drying.
The distinguishing feature of the LC coater series is a new nozzle arm concept for spraying on the coating which permits perfect adaptation to the tablet bed. This technology enables easy adjustment of the spraying distance and angle in order to achieve a perfect result at all times.
The high-performance air technology used also ensures speed. A fully-perforated drum with a free surface of over 50 % permits a very high air flow. This provided excess energy for the coating process to guarantee a problem-free and reliable process. Efficient mixing elements likewise contribute to excellent product quality. They permit uniform and gentle mixing of the tablets, even with variable filling levels of 30 to 100 % – absolutely essential for achieving the highly even coating demanded by the pharmaceutical industry.
