Syntegon Highlights the Sepion Tablet Coater
Revolutionizing Pharmaceutical Coating with Advanced Technology and Unmatched Efficiency
Syntegon, a leading provider of pharmaceutical packaging solutions and process technology, highlights its Sepion Tablet Coater. This innovative drum coater is designed for closed charging, sampling, and discharging, and represents a significant leap forward in tablet coating technology, offering unparalleled efficiency, flexibility, and quality in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
One of the Sepion's standout features is its unique, extended drum length. This design creates a shallower tablet bed while accommodating an increased number of spray guns. The result is higher spray rates and dramatically reduced process times, leading to improved productivity and efficiency in tablet coating operations.
The Sepion Tablet Coater boasts an automated spray arm, a feature that greatly enhances coating precision and ease of use. This intelligent system automatically adjusts the optimum spray arm positioning based on the filling level, which can be controlled via the human-machine interface (HMI). This automation maintains the ideal spray angle without manual intervention, improving coating consistency and operator safety.
For even greater precision, the Sepion can be equipped with an optional laser that measures the gun-to-bed distance. This feature allows for fully automated, recipe-driven adjustments, eliminating the need for manual operator intervention and further enhancing the repeatability and reliability of the coating process.
The Sepion's flexibility is another key advantage, accommodating filling levels between 10% and 100% of the drum volume without requiring baffle or drum changes. This versatility allows pharmaceutical manufacturers to efficiently handle a wide range of batch sizes, from small-scale production runs to full commercial batches without slowing operations or using excessive storage space.
Additionally, the Sepion incorporates a superior spray system equipped with Anti-Bearding-Cap spray nozzles, which help prevent material buildup and ensure consistent spray performance. The coater also features a fully automatic cleaning system, reducing downtime between batches and ensuring thorough, reproducible cleaning results.

Featured Product
FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
