Perfima Coating

Machine overview

Advanced coating.

Perfima is a perforated coating pan for tablet film and sugar coating. The shape of the pan combined with the mixing baffles positioned in the central sector of the drum ensure perfect mixing of the cores allowing a wide range of batches to be processed in the same drum: from 25% to 100% of pan capacity. Conceived to provide the highest efficiency in the field of automatic coating equipment, Perfima guarantees remarkable performance with all processes. Also suitable for containment installations, the machine reduces operator exposure while working with HAPI.

Perfima water recirculation system allows consumption saving and reduces the disposal of dirty water at the end of the washing cycle, while granting optimal equipment performance. The AHU allows energy efficiency thanks to the recovery of treated air which is used to cool/heat the incoming air thus maintaining optimal system performance.

  3. Full containment

    Complete isolation of all machine parts in contact with the product, ensuring maximum hygiene, operator safety, and cross-contamination prevention.


  4. Optimal accessibility

    Easy inspection through the front and side doors, allowing quick maintenance and process monitoring.


  5. Space-saving installation

    Through-the-wall machine installation possible, optimising floor space and improving workflow efficiency.


  6. Intuitive HMI

    MAX new corporate HMI plays a strategic role in improving operator efficiency, while ensuring prompt responsiveness, enhanced predictability and easy learning.

Achieving precision cleaning through validated innovation

The automatic Clean-In-Place system, validated in collaboration with the University of Parma, ensures quick, thorough cleaning with minimal downtime, guaranteeing compliance and optimal hygiene standards.

Machine versions

Equipped with welded mixing baffles for tablet film and sugar coating.

Perfima Echo ensures a perfect and uniform mixing of the cores thanks to the shape of the pan combined with the mixing baffles positioning on the central sector of the drum. The mixing capability is maintained in case of minimum or maximum quantity of product, allowing a wide range of batches to be processed in the same machine (from 25% to 100% of the pan capacity).

Equipped with removable mixing baffles for tablet film and sugar coating.

Perfima Extra has been specifically designed to increase the machine flexibility in terms of workable products and range of batches to be processed. The shape of the drum guarantees the uniform mixing of the product, while the removable mixing baffles allow different machines configurations ensuring a wider range of batches that can be processed in the same pan (from 10% to 100% of the pan capacity).

Equipped with wedge wire screen for pellet, minitablet and tablet processing.

The unique design of Perfima Edge wedge wire screen drum provides a suitable surface, guaranteeing gentle treatment of the cores during coating. On the external surface of the drum, the wedge wires provide a semi-conical shape guaranteeing easy removal of the suspension coating residual and an efficient cleaning.
