2006 NN coating drum

A coating drum (or coating machine) has the primary function of applying a protective or decorative layer (coating) uniformly to the surface of products.

Products are continuously mixed using a rotating drum, while a liquid or powder is added.

Here are the main features and applications:

* Applying functional coatings: Protecting products from external influences such as moisture, oxygen or mechanical wear.

* Food processing industry: Coating candy (such as jelly or gum) with sugar, chocolate, or glossing agents.

* Agricultural sector: Coating fertilizer granules with a protective layer to, for example, slow down the release of nutrients.

Pharmaceutical industry: The application of a coating to tablets so that they are easier to swallow or regulate release in the body.

* Mixing and coating: mixing ingredients and spraying liquids (such as flavorings) onto products in a rotating motion.

Operating principle

The drum rotates and ensures that the products (e.g., granules, candies, tablets) are kept in constant motion, so that the coating layer is evenly distributed. Often warm air is blown through the drum simultaneously to dry the coating quickly.

This machine is on adjustable feet
