Tablet Coater GC Smart

The fastest tablet‑coating technology in the world

The GC Smart is an innovative development designed for extremely fast and highly efficient coating, offering the fastest coating technology worldwide.

The quality and configuration of the mixing tools enable an ultra‑fast mixing effect, even with a minimum load of only 5 %. With this world-first innovation, batch times of just one hour for the complete process – from loading to coating to unloading – can be achieved.

Benefits:

  • 5% – 100% drum load for maximum flexibility
  • 30% shorter coating times with excellent coating uniformity
  • Integrated automatic tablet unloading
  • Reduction of downtime by 40%
  • Lower production costs per tablet

Special Features:

Product charging

Front charging with a chute can be carried out manually or with the suitable lifting devices.

With handling equipment developed by Glatt, even the heaviest containers can be lifted and emptied easily and conveniently in front of the unit.

Product discharging

The modern GC Smart features an integrated discharge system. The enhanced Glatt system enables fast and gentle discharge of the coated tablets.

Optimized Air treatment

The optimized horizontal process air guidance minimizes turbulence in the nozzle area, ensuring perfect coating results. The newly integrated exhaust air chamber reduces components and space requirements to a minimum. Its smart design eliminates time-consuming cleaning and inspection. A guide plate in the exhaust air chamber allows quick adaptation for fill volumes as low as 5%, enabling fast and easy handling.

Drum Coating Process

The drum coating process is suitable for coating and refining tablets, minitablets and capsules. The GC Smart is particularly well suited for sugar coating.

During the drum coating process, the tablets, capsules or minitablets are moved gently and in a controlled manner in a drum where the coating is applied. The key is to distribute the coating material as evenly as possible. This is ensured by the appropriate spray equipment and homogeneous mixing.
