The Magical Power of Icing: Demystifying the Charm of Tablet Coating Machines

The development history of tablet coating machine

The development of tablet coating machines began in the 1980s. With the development of technology, tablet coating machines have experienced many major breakthroughs and key evolutions. For example, tablet coating machines have been divided into two types: stainless steel and copper according to the pot material and heat exchange efficiency; according to the production capacity, they are divided into two types: production type and experimental type. Modern tablet coating machines are widely used in pharmaceutical, chemical, food and other industries, not only for the production of sugar-coated tablets, but also for rolling, mixing and polishing spherical or granular materials. For example, it is used for chocolate polishing, peanut wrapping, sugar coating, seasoning, etc.

The structure of tablet coating machine

The tablet coating machine is made of high-quality stainless steel. The inner and outer walls are smooth, sturdy and durable, and not easy to rust. No longer need to worry about the impact of long-term use on its quality.

 It has a stunning round design with a small opening and a large diameter. It has the advantages of easy operation, easy cleaning, smooth surface, bright and delicate surface, easy access to auxiliary materials and maintenance, etc. It is an ideal equipment for coating.

Equipped with a main motor and transmission system, electrical control system, heating device, and fan, the coating machine can achieve uniform coating of drugs and achieve ideal results.

Working principle

1. After the equipment is turned on, the tablets will make complex movements in the stainless steel coating pot under the action of gravity and friction.

2. After the coating excipients are evenly sprayed on the surface of the tablets, the hot air sent into the coating pot will dry the tablets.

3. After multiple cycles, the coating film on the surface of the tablets is uniform, colored, and polished to make the tablets more beautiful and easy to store and distinguish.

4. Under the action of centrifugal force, the materials are rolled and rubbed up and down in the pot to achieve the effects of sugar coating mixing, pill making and polishing.

5. At the same time, blow hot air into the pot to quickly remove the moisture on the sugar-coated surface of the tablets, and finally obtain evenly wrapped and smooth sugar-coated tablets.

6. This machine is a commonly used equipment in the sugar-coating process. It rotates at a stable linear speed of the pot so that the tablets form an optimal parabolic curve in the pot to achieve the process requirements of uniform thickness of the sugar-coating layer, bright color, and no pitting.

Advantages of sugar coating

1. Sugar-coated tablets can beautify the appearance and are easy to take orally. Powder drugs are sugar-coated for easy taking.

2. Mask the odor to avoid the special smell of traditional Chinese medicine and irritation to the digestive tract; it is like a layer of armor that perfectly covers it.

3. The sugar coating is the guardian of the tablets. It can avoid light, moisture and air, providing comprehensive protection for the medicine. Give drugs a safe environment and fundamentally improve their efficacy.

Conclusion

Generally speaking, in the future, with the development of the pharmaceutical industry, the application of tablet coating machines in the pharmaceutical field will become more and more extensive, and its role in pharmaceutical preparations will become more and more important.
