Continuous tablet coater
Croma continuous tablet coater works downstream from
medium-speed tablet press or as stand-alone unit. Its
modular construction enables you to connect four coat-
ing modules in series to increase weight gain or in par-
allel to increase throughput. Each module can run dif-
ferent process parameters and processes. Features include
tablet transfer system and adjustable flow from inlet and
outlet. Compact unit minimizes tablet stress. It can be
washed offline or using CIP.
