COMPU-LAB

The Thomas Engineering Compu-Lab is a fully integrated tablet coating system. It's the perfect coater for applications ranging from product development up through GMP manufacturing of clinical supplies. Systems include coating drums, inlet air handling package, exhaust blower with filtration, drawer-mounted spray system and controls all in one unit!

While other lab coaters are designed for test work "just to see how the tablets coat," Compu-Lab is uniquely configured to provide unmatched utility for process scale-up. The coating environment in Compu-Lab closely matches that found in production size coating systems. That's why leading pharmaceutical companies prefer the Compu-Lab and the benefits it affords them:

• Full-size spray guns with features for your solution properties and spray process; choose from a range of commercially available spray gun products including the Thomas Spray Bar.

• Indexing hardware permits repeatable positioning of spray gun distance to tablet bed and angular orientation of guns.

• Independently regulated exhaust and inlet blowers provide precise controls of process air flow and pan-to-room differential pressure.

• A process air bypass is included with every Compu-Lab; during sampling or process pause, the bypass diverts process air around the tablet bed without disrupting controlled parameters or exhaust air balance. This useful feature is commonly found on production scale coaters.
