Thomas Engineering Model 60 DXL Accela Cota (Air Handling & Spray System)

Thomas Engineering Model 60 DXL Air Handling & Spray System

 60" Accela Cota Production Batch Tablet Coating System, this model a staple in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical solid-dose manufacturing.

1. Drum Capacity & Dimensions 60 inches (1,524 mm)

The Working Batch Capacity: Rated for a brim load capacity of up to 1,000 lbs (~450 to 530 kg), depending on the bulk density of the tablets (typically calculated between 0.75 kg/L and 1.0 kg/L).

Minimum Working Volume: Approximately 100 to 120 liters, making it highly versatile for fluctuating batch sizes.

2. Design & Construction

Material: Full 316 or 304 Stainless Steel sanitary construction compliant with stringent cGMP standards.

Drum Style: Fully perforated drum utilizing side-vented technology to maximize unrestricted airflow, ensuring high thermodynamic efficiency and short batch processing times.

Baffling: Typically equipped with removable Helical or anti-slide mixing baffles designed to ensure uniform tablet cascading without causing edge chipping or friability.

Function: High-pressure compressed air is essential for governing liquid atomization rates, regulating the spray pattern, and driving the pneumatic actuators that control the solution delivery loop.
