CP-9
Coating pan designed for coating operations of different types of tablets, pellets and granules.
The CP-9 Coating Pan is a compact rotary coating system designed for the coating of tablets, pellets, and granules. It is well suited to formulation development, R&D, pilot-scale trials, and small-batch production where controlled coating performance, simple handling, and easy observation are important.
The system features a coating bowl with integrated baffles to promote efficient product movement and improve coating uniformity. When mounted on the UAM Universal Motor Drive via the UGD Universal Gear Drive, the CP-9 provides adjustable rotational speed and pan angle to support optimized coating, drying, and discharge conditions.
Key Features
- Rotary coating pan for tablets, pellets, and granules
- Bowl with integrated baffles for improved product movement and coating efficiency
- Adjustable rotational speed through the UAM Universal Motor Drive
- Adjustable operating angle via the UGD Universal Gear Drive
- Compatible with spray-gun systems for application of coating liquids
- Compatible with external drying devices
- Optional 150 W IR lamp with metal support for enhanced drying
- Easy product discharge through pan-angle adjustment
- Simple construction for convenient installation, cleaning, and servicing
- GMP-compliant, sterilizable product-contact parts
- Corrosion-resistant, medical- and food-grade contact materials
Operating Principle
The CP-9 operates according to the rotary spray-coating principle. As tablets, pellets, or granules rotate inside the baffled coating pan, coating liquid can be applied using a compatible spray gun. The baffles support movement of the product bed, helping to expose the material to the coating spray.
Drying can be assisted by an optional IR lamp or a heater/blower mounted on the UGD lever. After processing, the pan angle can be adjusted to simplify product discharge.
