Rotary Drum Coating Machine
The coating machine heats and melts the coating material in the stirring tank and then sprays it onto the fertilizer. Inert powder is metered and fed into the coating machine by a screw conveyor, and a layer or multiple layers of coating material are evenly wrapped around the surface of the fertilizer particles. These coating materials are diverse

Fertilizer coating machines, as key equipment in the fertilizer processing field, play a significant role in agricultural production due to their unique performance. They mainly consist of coating drums, stirring devices, liquid spraying devices, metering pumps, and liquid storage devices.

Applications of Coating Machines
As an important processing equipment, coating machines have extensive and crucial applications in multiple industries due to their ability to coat the surfaces of solid materials.
1. In the pharmaceutical industry, coating machines are particularly common and important.
Benefits: They can coat tablets, such as sugar-coated tablets, which can mask the bitter taste and unpleasant odor of drugs, making them more acceptable to patients; film coatings can improve the appearance of tablets, enhance drug stability, prevent deterioration due to light, humidity, and other environmental factors, and control the release rate of drugs to achieve sustained-release or controlled-release effects, prolonging the drug’s action time or reducing the frequency of dosing.
2. The food industry is also an important application area for coating machines.
Benefits: In candy production, coating machines can be used to make sugar-coated chocolates, coated hard candies, etc. By coating the surface of candies with a layer of sugar coating or other flavored coatings, not only can the taste and flavor of candies be enhanced, but also moisture-proof and anti-sticking effects can be achieved, extending the shelf life of candies. In nut processing, coating machines can coat peanuts, almonds, and other nuts with sugar coating, chocolate, or flavoring powder, adding layers of taste and flavor diversity to nuts, and also facilitating storage and transportation.
3. In the health supplement industry, the application of coating machines is similar to that in the pharmaceutical industry.
Benefits: Many health supplement tablets or pills need to be coated to mask their unpleasant odors and improve their palatability. At the same time, coating can protect the active ingredients in health supplements from oxidation or damage by other factors during storage, ensuring the quality and efficacy of the products.
4. In certain areas of the chemical industry, coating machines also find their uses.
Benefits: In the production of some granular chemical products, coating can change the surface properties of the granules, such as improving their flowability, preventing caking, or endowing them with specific functions, such as corrosion resistance or heat insulation, to meet different usage requirements.
