Nanjing Huozao Machinery Technology Co., Ltd. is one of the leading manufacturers and suppliers of sugar coating equipment in China. With abundant experience, we are committed to providing high quality equipment made in China with competitive price. Welcome to wholesale customized sugar coating equipment from our factory.
Main Components
Rotating Coating Pan Crafted from high-quality stainless steel, the coating pan has a smooth, burr-free inner wall. The stable rotating structure ensures tablets and pills tumble and mix evenly during operation, avoiding local accumulation and uneven sugar coating, and laying a foundation for consistent finished appearance.
Drive System Supported by matched motors and reducers, the drive system delivers steady and uniform pan rotation speed. Variable speed adjustment is available, allowing staff to flexibly switch operating speed according to different product sizes and sugar coating craftsmanship requirements, adapting to diverse processing standards.
Coating Liquid System The system supports flexible feeding of sugar syrup, color coating liquid and other coating materials. It meets manual feeding demands for small-batch production, and can be fitted with an optional automatic spraying system to realize quantitative and uniform liquid feeding for large-scale standardized production.
Hot Air System The supporting warm air drying device provides stable and adjustable temperature and airflow. It assists rapid and uniform drying after each coating application, effectively avoiding damp layers, sticky materials and unformed sugar surfaces caused by incomplete moisture evaporation.
Control System The integrated electrical control panel centrally controls core functions such as pan rotation and hot air operation. It simplifies daily parameter setting and equipment operation, reducing operational difficulty and improving production repeatability.
Features
The sugar coating machine is specially optimized for sugar coating and surface polishing of tablets and pills, with uniform material tumbling and full coating coverage. It supports adjustable pan speed to match different coating formulas and product specifications. All material contact parts adopt stainless steel materials, which are corrosion-resistant and easy to clean, meeting sanitary production requirements.
With simple overall structure and low failure rate, the equipment requires convenient daily maintenance. Optional hot air drying and automatic spraying configurations are available to upgrade processing efficiency. It covers the whole production chain from laboratory research and pilot testing to formal industrial mass production, with strong scene adaptability.
Working Principle
After solid products such as tablets and pills are put into the coating pan, the rotating pan drives materials to roll and tumble continuously along the inner wall. Operators quantitatively add sugar syrup or functional coating liquid, and the mechanical rotation evenly distributes the coating materials on product surfaces. At the same time, stable warm air takes away surface moisture to complete single-layer drying.
After repeated coating and drying cycles, the product surface forms a thick and uniform sugar coating layer. Users can also add a final polishing process to further optimize the surface texture, making the finished products smoother, brighter and more aesthetically consistent.
Applications
This sugar coating equipment is widely used in multiple industries. It is suitable for pharmaceutical sugar-coated tablets, traditional Chinese medicine pills, herbal pellets and various health care product tablets. It also supports surface processing of confectionery, candy and nutritional food products.
The device is ideal for products that need sugar protective layers, appearance optimization, surface smoothing and taste masking, effectively improving product usability and market appearance.
Sugar Coating vs. Film Coating
Sugar coating forms a relatively thick outer layer on product surfaces, with excellent gloss and smooth texture. It performs outstandingly in taste improvement and appearance optimization, and is more suitable for products with high requirements on surface aesthetics and taste masking.
Film coating adopts ultra-thin coating layers, which consumes less coating materials and shortens the overall production cycle. The two processes have their own advantages. Enterprises can select appropriate coating modes according to product formulas, tablet physical properties and final production standards.
