L.B. Bohle Filmcoater BFC 50 Tripan – three drums, one platform from development to production

Moving a tablet coating process from development to production often means moving it to a different machine. L.B. Bohle’s Filmcoater BFC 50 Tripan is designed to avoid that. Three interchangeable coating drums in one flexible system take pharmaceutical and nutraceutical tablet coating from small development batches to production volumes, all on the same coating platform.

A dedicated lifting device makes drum changes fast and convenient, so the coater can be adapted efficiently as process requirements and production volumes evolve.

Key features

Key features of the Filmcoater BFC 50 Tripan include:

• Three interchangeable coating drums for batch sizes of 7–14 litres, 11–35 litres and 25–75 litres
• A dedicated lifting device for fast and convenient drum changes
• Six coating nozzles secure an efficient and problem-free spraying
• Suspension supply to the nozzles from a single pump head
• InTouch visualization with extensive batch management functions and recipe creation options
• Integrated high-pressure cleaning inside the coating drum for fast, thorough cleaning and less downtime

Why choose the Filmcoater BFC 50 Tripan?

Developed for research, development and pilot production, the Filmcoater BFC 50 Tripan gives pharmaceutical manufacturers one versatile, scalable machine for different coating applications. Matching the drum to the batch size ensures uniform, efficient coating with minimal material loss.

Because drum size can be changed quickly and process parameters are scalable, technology transfer from development to production is simpler. This makes the coater well suited to cost-intensive active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and innovative approaches.
