Variable speed and dip duration let operators tune the coating process.
FROM LOADING TO FINISHED PRODUCT
Four stations.
One controlled process.
Apply adhesive
The robotic arm moves all 20 units through a controlled adhesive spray while rotating each unit for even, 360° coverage.
Apply coating
Units dip into the material while rotating at up to 1,000 RPM. Adjustable dip time and a clump-breaking mechanism support consistent distribution.
Collect
Finished units are ejected into a collection tray, ready for quality inspection and packaging.

GOOD QUESTIONS. CLEAR ANSWERS.
Get to know
the machine.
Have a product-specific question?
Let’s talk through your application.
What can the machine coat?
The machine applies food-grade adhesive and powdered or granular coating material to cylindrical objects up to 11mm in diameter, including pre-roll applications.
How is coating consistency maintained?
Consistent insertion depth, controlled rotation and pass speeds, and a clump-breaking coating station help deliver uniform treatment across each cycle.
What coating moisture level is recommended?
The specification sheet recommends less than 12% moisture, with under 10% ideal for coating performance.
Can coating weight be adjusted?
Yes. Coating weight can be influenced by adhesive quantity, the adhesive percentage in the formulation, and dip time in the coating station.
What do the application-weight ranges represent?
The published ranges are 0.03–0.06g of adhesive and 0.04–0.08g of coating material per unit. The specification sheet’s examples use a 2-inch unit and a 30% adhesive formulation. Results depend on your product, material and settings.
What options are available?
Available add-ons listed in the specification sheet include a cartridge-based alternative loading system, a vision system and a remote-connect modem. Discuss the right configuration for your application with Nu-Tec.
