Fluid Bed Coater
Fluidized bed coater is a particulate coating system in which powders, granules, pellets, or mini-tablets are fluidized in a controlled gas stream while a coating solution or suspension is atomized and sprayed onto the moving particles, followed by rapid solvent evaporation to form a uniform film. Coating is performed using defined spray geometries—most commonly bottom-spray Wurster coating for high-uniformity pellet and multiparticulate films, top-spray coating for general-purpose coating and layering, and tangential/rotor coating for controlled rolling and densification—supported by an air distributor, process chamber, atomizing nozzles, and high-efficiency filtration to manage fines and maintain stable fluidization. In pharmaceutical manufacturing, fluidized bed coaters are used to apply immediate-release, enteric, sustained-release, and taste-masking coatings and to perform drug layering on multiparticulates, while in other industries they are used for surface modification, barrier coatings, and controlled-release functionalization of particulate products.
