Abstract: The invention concerns a coating drum (60) for a single drum or, as the case may be, a multi-drum circulating coating device. The inside of the drum is subdivided into two rotation-symmetrical drum chambers (61 and 62) via a separating wall (67), which chambers are fillable with equal dispensed amounts of small parts through oppositely lying openings (73) of the drum casing (63). The openings (73) are closeable via lids or covers (68) provided pivotable on the drum (60).

Abstract: The device for surface coating of small parts is comprised essentially of a device (10) with sequentially arranged processing stations, namely a dip station (11), a drip station (12), a centrifuge station (13) and an emptying station (14). The drums (1) filled with small parts are conveyed from station to station via a longitudinal conveyor (27). Each station has its individual drive, with which the drums (1) can be brought into rotation. The drums are comprised of half shells (2) and (3), which are axially slideable relative to each other, which are opened for filling and closed during processing.
